I've read Revelations many times... in fact had to as part of my OAC (the now defunct "grade 13" up here) Religion class.

However I can't say any of the 'fervor' or "left behind" mentality that has been linked with the fundamentalist/evengelical/revival movements within American Chirstianity was imparted or adequately explained.

As AKA Monet said I am (along with others) just trying to understand it or figure out WTH is going on... or more accurately why the "Rapture" movement/phenomenon is currently and historically so strong in the US, and seemingly nowhere else (other than groups founded by American missionaries).
