EXCERPT:

Whenever there is a blow-up in the Middle East, I often get emails from people who think I’m sitting at my computer and salivating all over myself with glee over the prospect of war. Here is one good example:

“A friend and I from work were watching CNN today on our lunch break. We saw breaking news from the Mideast where Israel was bombing Beirut. He turned to me and said, 'You know, Christian fundamentals are salivating right now; they believe this is the beginning of the "rapture."' I laughed a little and thought to myself, 'Are there really people out there so incensed with their faith that they actually believe this is the end?' So I decided to research it on the net. Sure as God made little green apples, here you are!”
