I may be a fountain of bad ideas, but this is a bad idea even beyond me.

Though he's sure to face a firestorm from pre-millennials, the affable Caldwell seems unfazed by the technology's semblance to what eschatologists such as Hal Lindsay and Chuck Missler refer to as the mark of the beast in Revelation 13. "Look, I'm a classic dispensationalist myself, but I see it as a win-win situation. We either continue at the cutting edge of contemporary ministry, or we trigger the rapture and bada bing, we're outta here, brother!"

Does this not say it all? We trigger the rapture? Do you see how far man-centered theology, under the likes of Pelagius and Arminius, has come? It's hardly suprprising, moreover, he embraces an eschatology that goes along with such wrong theology.

Oh, I missed something:

We either continue at the cutting edge of contemporary ministry

Notice the nonchalant acceptance of the humanistic idea of inevitable progress, guided by evolution. These poverty-stricken souls are probably so steeped in entertainment pop-culture that they don't even see this.

THANKS.

Hideous.

A travesty of mind boggling proportions.

I suppose God will have mercy on ignorant dupes to some degree but I wonder.

I was reading this just awhile ago! It's a mighty proud statement to think that any of us are going to "trigger" the "rapture".

I'm a little amazed that 15,782 people submitted to this. Of the (maybe) 300 people that I know who worship regularly at our little church, I can't think of one who would willingly submit to something like this.

VERY strange.
