But even if someone disagrees with this particular theology, the statement that "nearly every major Protestant denomination" rejects this view is quite false.
So which "major Protestant denominations" do go in for the whole Rapture thing?
It is not a comment on the veracity of the Theological position (though as a Catholicly-minded Anglican I have no time for the actual Theology personally), but rather a statement of verifiable fact. Most major Protestant denominations do not believe in it; just about everybody I have met who does believe in it is a member of an independent Church of some form or other.

I used to attend an Assembly of God church. They most definitely did.
I didn't leave because of this particular issue though. It was a lot of stuff, not least of which the fact that the only "prophetic message" ever uttered in the congregation that wasnt vague enough to have no accurate interpretation turned out to be pattently false! And these messages went on pretty much weekly. Not that I am anti Assembly of God. I just felt creepy when that stuff happened anyway. Many of my friends still go there and it's just fine.
