Boy, this again..... :)

Ok. where do you find these people? I don't know any Christians who are just waiting around in pain for the rapture to happen... either that or you're taking what they say way too literally. When someone says "I can't wait 'til Christmas..." do you really think they'll die if Christmas doesn't happen.

I acknowledge that there are over zealous people in all walks of life. But they are the exception not the norm.
