I used to believe in the rapture and nwo theories espoused by many fundamentalist Christians in the 1990s. Are these ideas still popular with fundies? Have they changed? I haven't really read up about them in the last few years.

Yes, they are. There's a film, if you can find it, called Waiting for Armageddon or Waiting for the Apocalypse.

Ah yes I watched that documenatary and it was truly dumbfounding, at times it was hard to believe.

Particularly the couple who it opens with who work for an arms company designing missiles and doing the computer programming for them, who have the gaul to sit and say they discussed god scientifically to validate it between each other. Making themselves out to be critical thinkers, but they provide no scientific evidence or proof of why they came to the conclusion that god and rapture is coming.
The only evidence that shows is the husband was pussy whipped by his wife into believing and going to church to get some action in the bedroom.

Theres also kids whos parents make them believe the end times are due soon.

If you can handle shouting at the TV screen its for you.

Rapture predictions have been very popular since the mid-19th century. Yes, we hear a lot about it today because of the media, but fringe Christians have been waiting for end times pretty much consistently for the last 170 years.

My favorite wingnut Christian end-times site: http://www.raptureready.com/</p>

This site was a major source of the "driverless cars going out of control after the Rapture" myth, which achieved such cultural cachet that it made it into one of the LaHaye books.

One of the funniest bumper stickers I ever saw said, "Warning: in case of rapture this car will be unmanned."

I've asked people who buy into the whole "gold is money" crowd if I can have their Federal Reserve Notes. None have ever taken me up on that offer though one said he was going to use his to buy silver (yeah right).

Yeah, gold is money apparently, but goldline has no problem taking my federal reserve notes in exchange for it.
