You would be about as qualified to make about the rapture as Al Gore is qualified to make a movie on global warming. Also I could not agree that all conservatives believe in the rapture, there are a good deal of conservatives that are not Christians for one. And not all Christians believe in the rapture for another. There are a few different ways the term rapture is used by Christians. Some mean it to just mean the end of the world and when we all go to judgment. When I hear the word rapture I automatically thing of the Pre-Millennial belief that all Christians will be raptured up into heavy, while the non-believers will be left behind wondering what just happened and why so many people just vanished, then after a bit the tribulation comes and so on. There are many varying views of eschatology among the Christian community, I don't believe in the pre-millennial idea at all. So I would say the coming of the rapture is not an infallible truth at all. I think the comparison of the rapture to global warming is kind of silly. For one, I could tell somebody who firmly believes in a rapture and a tribulation and all that, that I do not share their view point at all and while they may argue with me, I don't think they are very likely to tell me I am going to hell because I don't share their belief. I know they are not going to destroy my career because of my belief. For some reason these kind of things seem to happen to any poor sap who challenges the idea of global warming. If you don't believe in global warming you are anti-human it seems and you should be ashamed of yourself for not caring about the world your children and your children's children will grow up in. Why can't we question global warming? Why are so many people so sensitive on that subject? I care about the polar bears as much as the next guy, and I definately agree that we should be as enviromentally friendly as possible. But because I don't believe the impending doom of global warming and the unfortunate death of all of our white and furry, cold weather loving friends, suddenly I am some sort of heretic. Global warming is another issue of people being too lazy to do their own research, and just finding it easier just to listen to bias sources and call it good. I just don't get it. For the life of me I just don't get it.
