And what’s with the shitty bombastic music? Was “Carmina Burana” too expensive to license so they went for a cheapo knock-off instead? Note that the White House (where “that Obama” lives) and San Francisco (an American stand-in for Sodom and Gomorrah perhaps) have the ominous lightning flashes but the little church (which I presume resides somewhere in Sarah Palin’s “real America”) is bathed in a cone of holy light… Lame, but these things always are… Can’t these fucking assholes hurry up and be raptured already?
The funny part (if there is one) about all of the Christian apocalyptic madness of the current age is to consider how silly and dated this sort of superstitious insanity is going to look 100 years from now. Mark my words, after all of us are dead, there will be an ironic cult for Kirk Cameron movies and the Left Behind books. They’ll be collectibles from a less enlightened time for hipsters in the 22nd century.
Looks and sound like a trailer for a new "Omen" movie.
On May 5th I'll get a 12 pack of beer and throw on some Godsmack playing in the background.

Comment by Ryan E. Hoffman on April 6, 2011 at 11:46am Already laughing - as a former fundie I can't tell you how much damage the predecessor to "Left Behind" movies did to my generation of current & former believers - The Thief in the Night series. Left Behind fans like to forget that the same scare tactics were used on a generation before them - and still no Rapture, Tribulation etc. Suffice it to say - they WANT the end of the world to come - because pretty soon they won't be able to suppress many generations of embarrassing false alarms.
Thanks for passing this on - these scare tactics have to end. Children growing up in these environments need to know that god doesn't care if you play video games, read your bible or pray. This spiritual abuse is totally and completely unethical - and immoral. Having grown up on my knees, begging God to not come before my entire large family (siblings) had been born-again - they have created a foe they shouldn't want to mess with. I feared that I would be separated from my family forever. I believed that my prayers help elect Reagan, Bush and Bush again. This brain-washing and abuse of children HAS to stop!

"Dear God, please put up or shut up. Proof that you're there, or shut the hell up. Thanks, bye!"
Not anticipating a response..... :)
