There's a site I go to often, just to get some of the stranger headlines of the day. It's called fark.com. Some of you may be familiar with the site. It's mostly inhabited with liberal atheists, agnostics, and outright Christian haters. Not much respect for Christians, God, Creation, or the Bible. The comments on many of the stories are enough to make you cry or rip your hair out sometimes, believe me.

Anyway, they have a "Video" page, where a variety of links to videos (mostly from YouTube) are posted. So someone posted one of the little rapture videos out there, showing how it could happen. It was clear the poster wanted people to make fun of it. Well, needless to say, nearly every comment on that video was mocking or downright insulting. A lot of "Jeebus" thrown about as well, mocking the very name of the Savior. I posted on there as 'scuffleball' (my account on the site) about how the Rapture was a real future event and I prayed they would wake up before it was too late.

I haven't gone back to read any responses (and don't think I will) because I can imagine the vitriol that would be waiting on me.

My experience is that many people now see our belief in the Rapture as some kind of "escapist" exercise, as if by being Christians we are not capable of dealing with the world and we are all, by default, stupid and simpletons. I truly feel sorry for these people.
