Now I truly know what Jesus meant when he said the road is wide but the gate is narrow. I really wonder if the rapture happened today if we would even be missed. Truly sounds like so few are rapture ready very few.

You obviously haven't been paying attention to us here, Ron. No, you wouldn't be missed. Not at all.
Not really fundie since he's right. There are so few people who believe in the Rapture that, should it happen, we would not miss them. What he's wrong about is that they wouldn't but not for the reasons he's thinking.
"I really wonder if the rapture happened today if we would even be missed."
Perhaps it already has, and you weren't ready, and you've not missed those who were taken.
Well, one common misconception the rapturists make (aside from believing in the rapture altogether ;)) if they dream about the rapture is, that they believe they would be among those raptured. Considering all the things we read at FSTDT about the members of RR, I have my doubts however, that in case of a rapture a large percentage of the RR members would ascend to heaven.
They usually sound more like the pharisees of Jesus´ times, than like people who really would have followed Jesus at his alleged lifetime.
How about a little experiment, Ron? Just stop posting on RR (please?), don't leave your house anymore, and basically just stop any interaction with the outside world. And then wait and see how many people would miss you.

No, you wouldn't be missed. In fact, the sudden absence of the "Christian drag factor" on scientific research would probably bring about several advances in technology heretofor unseen in Human history.
I'm really happy with the survey that was stated, though of course the people at RR aren't. I think a lot of people in this day and age in the US, epecially in "evil liberal" areas like Seattle where I live, are "cultural Christians." Most people where I live have no problem saying "Happy Holidays!" or writing "Xmas," mostly because we live in an area with lots of diversity and no one really cares about "the magical birthday of Jesus" that much. We celebrate it out of happiness and thankfulness, not religion.

I've got a little list--I've got a little list
Of society offenders who might well be underground ...
And who never would be missed--who never would be missed! They'd none of 'em be missed--they'd none of 'em be missed!
CHORUS. He's got 'em on the list--he's got 'em on the list; And they'll none of 'em be missed--they'll none of
'em be missed.

Holy crap, someone at RR finally gets it. If the rapture were to happen, only about a dozen people would get taken away, so nobody would notice, except a few family members. And still then, it's not news worthy. So just go ahead and die now, why wait? You know you wanna.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
