Markets in everything, postal edition
Have cards sent to atheists after the Rapture. "The Postal Service of the Saved," it works like this:
Just write your letter and it will be hand-delivered immediately following the exodus of the pure from the Earth. But you must be thinking to yourself, "How can the letters be delivered after the Rapture?" The answer is simple. The creators of this site are Atheists. That's right, we don't believe in God. How else would we be able to deliver your correspondence after the Rapture?

Here's a stupid question: how do we know that the rapture hasn't already happened?

What would one write on such a postcard? "Please feed my cat now that I'm gone. The key is hidden in the flowerpot by the garage"?

Here's a serious answer written in a pithy tone:
Because it's silly mythology.

Ignorance is the Number One Problem. Education is of the Essence.
Then maybe you will Know the Other or, Face the Face of the Other,
which is the Essence of Life after You Deliever the Message...
But , then, you don't Know what the hell I am Talking about.
You are an A-Atheist: So, don't Deliever...
Just Wonder and Wander About until the hell Comes and maybe then you will
Understand What I just Wrote...
Think Deep...the Answer is Within...

We Jews already know what happens every December 25: Santa brings the Rapture every year and we go out for Chinese Food. Don't worry about me: the day after the Rapture, I'll get Dim Sum. So who needs postcards?

Very clever idea.

Santa needs Postcards because He's Not Coming.
He's a Jew...
Didn't you know ?

What a great way to make money off of super-religious people. I would like to read some of the postcards.

Maybe they are serious?
It's no sillier than "we are turning Iraq into a democracy."
Politicians would never take America to war just to make a buck, would they?

[how do we know that the rapture hasn't already happened?]
basically, the same way that we know it isn't ever going to happen.
