..."Truly, some very interesting ideas right up until the part about "rapture." If anyone is arrogant enough to think they are going to ascend into Heaven without dying - without paying the just wages of sin - then they need to lay off the sauce, in my opinion...."

Which is why my position has always been to pray and hope that there IS something on the horizon commonly referred to as the 'Rapture', but live your life as if you're going to be right here on Planet Earth until you take that permanent dirt nap.

[Norman Bates]

I can certainly respect your opinion. I just don't see "Rapture" as being theologically or eschatologically sound.
