can I interject here a few things that I see "wrong" with the OP? (keep in mind this is the way I was taught)
The 144000 that are "going" are from the 12 original tribes (thought to be the orthodox jews) they do not have to accept christ to go, they are taken because of their steadfastness in their faith...they didnt believe Jesus was the son of god, but as they have not wavered in their faith they are the first ones up.
Next you have those that are saved, this is where things like people just disappearing come into play. We will hear the horn blow and we will be gone in the twinkling of an eye.
Then the people left will suffer the tribulation, getting one more chance to turn to god before the "end"
this is also dependant which tribulation theory you believe (whether its before, during or after....Im a before believer)
that said.....I truly believe people like falwell and robertson in their early lives were good people....I think years of being put on a pedestal have corrupted them and God is going to laugh in their face come judgment day
