IMHO, The Rapture is false doctrine. An error that arises from the fallacy of sola scriptura - i.e. anyone can read into Biblical passages anything they like.

As I understand it, the Assumption of Mary is based on the fact that, since no one knew where she was buried, she must have been assumed directly into heaven.  If the Rapture is mildly biblical yet false, what does that make the Assumption?

If you assume the right things, then you get an Assumption.

Way to argue from a position of ignorance. I thought you were a "bright" or whatever they call you guys these days.

With logic like this it's no wonder there are protestants in the world.
