Cynosure

I cannot help but think that many fundamentalist Christians who watch that video, do so with a barely suppressed glee. They watch it and say, "Praise God!", but what they're really saying is "Yes, Lord - let it be so!"

I know an awful lot about the so called "Rapture", as well as about the kind of people who believe in it and support it. I was brought up in a fundamentalist Christian church, and, from my older childhood and into my teens, and even into my early 20s, I attended countless preachings, teachings, and seminars about the Rapture and the End Times. And thus, I once (as a teenager and as a young adult) believed in the Rapture. But nowadays, though I still believe in God and in Christ, I have since come to learn that the "Rapture" (BTW, the word itself does not exist in the Bible, and neither does the concept, really) is a gross and willful misinterpretation of certain key passages in the Bible, by revisionist historians and by preachers (and their followers) with an anti-world and self-interested agenda.
