Behold this montage of shame, in which every TV news outlet from “Good Morning America” to MSNBC seemed to make an appearance. CNN, in its quest for fact, checked something called a “rapture index,” while Fox News demanded a rapture timetable, prompting Stewart to comment, “that’s the timetable Fox News is demanding we have. ‘Mr. President, when will our troops withdraw to the hill of Megiddo to fight the army of Satan? I want answers!’” It’s comforting to know that while that guy with the sign in front of Costco has to take a break every now and then, the cable news networks can get the word out about the end of the world 24 hours a day.

The "Rapture Index" (believe it or not) is doing its part to help fulfill the most focused on and most important "sign" in Matthew 24: DECEPTION. If the RI would add up the total numerical value of its own deception, it would self-destruct! Actually it should be called the "Second Advent Index" since its "precursors" are fulfilled during the tribulation and point to only the final second advent to earth and not to a supposed "pretribulation" rapture that no pre-1830 church ever taught. At the same time, RI inventor Todd Strandberg declares that the "pretrib" rapture is "signless"----which is believable if "precursors" can't be signs! ("Pretrib Rapture Diehards" on Yahoo etc. shows exactly how the rapture fraud came into being.)
