A good little article over at shipoffools.com.
I BECAME A CHRISTIAN because of the rapture. When a youth leader told my 12-year-old self that he would "stake his faith on it" that Jesus would soon return preceded by cars and planes crashing as the holy inhabitants were taken to heaven in a flash of light, it was only sensible to agree and take the red pill. It would have been rude to turn down the offer of eternal life for those who agreed, burning flesh for those who didn't.After this seminal experience, I lived in fear of the future moment when all of us would meet our good Christian friends in the sky (and never asked who would be controlling the air traffic).
Thank God I found a way out.
I don't think scaring little kids to death is the best way to bring them to embrace Christianity or any religion. They really ought to be running in joy toward something positive, not away from something negative in fear.
How did you do that color change thing with the topic?
