Quotes 

• Jerry : If those theological authorities are such authorities, how come they didn't go up with the rest? That's what blows holes in this theory that only the Christians went. How come there're still so many religious people here?

  Patty : Maybe they didn't believe in UFOs.

  Sandy : Well, just because you have an understanding of the Bible in your head, doesn't necessarily mean you have Jesus in your heart.

• Guard : I understand you're having a hard time making a decision.

  Patty : How would you know that?

  Wenda : You know, the medic at the hospital seemed to know an awful lot about us, also.

  Guard : Some of your friends are kind of concerned about your future. I think maybe you should hear what they have to say.

  [Sandy, Jerry, and Diane approach them. They notice that Sandy has a mark on her right hand] 

  Patty : Sandy!

  Wenda : Oh, Sandy!

  Patty : You're a Christian!

  Sandy : Oh, Patty. Anyone can say they're a Christian.

  Patty : But I thought that Jonathan...

  Diane : Jonathan was one of us, but he had nothing to do with the trap that Sandy set for you.

  Wenda : Sandy, why didn't you stay with us all day?

  Jerry : She was trying to keep those fanatics from encouraging you into making a foolish decision.

  Diane : Yeah. Actually, it's simple. You can lose your head

  [glances at the guillotine] 

  Diane : , or you can go free. To work, to buy, to eat. To live a normal life, just like before.
