I'm not sure why you want a such vice, but what about this?

def raise(*args)
  super unless $ignore_error
end

def on_error_resume_next
  ignore_error = $ignore_error
  $ignore_error = true
  yield
ensure
  $ignore_error = ignore_error
end
 
def error
  raise "ERROR_DELIBERATE"
  puts "I'm back"
end

on_error_resume_next do
  error
  puts "Finishing..."
end
