"Most Christians do not believe in the rapture". Don't be a meschuga, please! Actually, most of the Christians do believe in it. As far your belief on the rapture being...invented and being "just an American nutcase kind of a thing" makes me smile and realize how the Pilgrims were regarded at first by Europeans and by non-believers. Just because you don't happen to agree with this belief, doesn't make the ones who do, using your own words, nutcases. What it does make you is intolerant. Your arguments are based on European views of Christianity when we sure know all about Europe's faith in God and its kindness to the Jews.

Luke 17:33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.
Luke 17:34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.
Luke 17:35 Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
Luke 17:36 Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
Luke 17:37 And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.
I Thessalonians 4:17 Then they who are alive, shall be caught up together into the clouds with them who remain, to meet the Lord in the air; and so shall we be ever with the Lord.

Look, most of your acquaintances might believe in that rapture crap, but there are over a billion Christians on the planet and it is the case that only a minority of American Christians believe it. The rest don't.

As for being intolerant, you bet your sweet bippie I am intolerant. I can't stand idiots, fools or liars. Anyone espousing the rapture ranks in one of those categories at least.
