This is what kills me about how dumb the Rapture story is.

Do you really believe that if like 300 million born again Christians just suddenly disappeared the rest of us couldn't figure out what happened?

I am Facebook friends with probably 40-50 born again Christians. If they all disappeared (plus my sister and her husband and all kids) do you really think that I'm not intelligent to say to myself: "huh. I guess I was wrong about that. I will now give my life to Christ."?

The problem with the Bible is that Paul (or was it John who wrote Rev?) wasn't privy to the fact that we'd have TV and Radio and social media, so that this story would obviously be unbelievable (I mean, even more unbelievable than all the other ones). And that' s a major flaw for a book that was supposed to be "infallible" and "written by God himself".

Does not work that way.

The "rapture" is not a mainstream theological idea. It is a very recent thing, in my opinion propagated by those who preach a fear-based gospel.
