Darth, come on man, I thought you studied shite like this. You know there's nothing in the bible about this pretty recent mythology right?

I wasn't talking about the bible. I was talking about what those who believe in the rapture think will happen.

ETA: which if you study the bible, while it does not mention the word "rapture", there are plenty of verses that indicate something will happen in the end times. What that something is, is open to debate.


ETA II: Here's the verses that I believe many point to as proof there will be a "rapture"...

quote:

---

1 Thessalonians 4:16 - For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

1 Thessalonians 4:17 - Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

Does that use the word "rapture"? No. Does that sound a whole lot like what the "rapture" is supposed to be? Many would say it does.
