On top of everything else, the rapture isn’t even in the Bible; some 19th-century fundies made it up. (Not that everything in the Bible is not, itself, also made up.)
Dunno, man. Kevin Sorbo CLEARLY states that the Rapture and Tribulation make up 25 percent of the Bible and that only an evil fool would ignore it. Are you saying that Sorbo might be lying? Because I'm pretty sure that's a sin and he seems like a pretty righteous dude.
She did it out of love, Nabin — she deliberately STAYED behind so she wouldn't have to divorce you for forcing her to sit through that Religious Right propaganda masquerading as a movie. 
Which makes me wonder why Neil McDonough is involved in this. He's a devout Roman Catholic… Which makes him the absolutely WRONG kind of "Christian" for bellowing evangelicals like Kevin Sorbo.
Many years ago, I bought a cheap copy of "Left Behind: The Movie (2000)", and it was surprisingly entertaining to watch with my friends. The ham-handled symbolism of our heroine dressing in low-cut outfits but eventually switching to very modest high-collared tops as she discovered her faith. Kirk Cameron was not very good but so darn earnest.
The subsequent films? They didn't quite live up the the promise. Bad CGI. Confusing / ever-changing mythology. Oh, but Louis Gossett Jr., he's pretty good!
I never watched the Nic Cage version, but it sounded really disappointing. Insultingly low budget (it all takes place in an airplane?), and Nic Cage just goes through the motions.
And now this. Ooof. Thanks for the write-up, entertaining as always, but I'm going to hold on to my memories of the campy Kirk Cameron trilogy. I was legitimately [if fitfully] entertained by that one.

Thanks for not leaving us behind!
I was going to see it with the missus but she wasn't able to swing it. I guess you could say she was...left behind.

If you rearrange the letters in Kevin Sorbo's name you can spell "robo knives"
Also "bro invokes"
I grew up Catholic (which fundies don't believe counts as Christian). I heard plenty of other nonsense, but none about the Rapture.
