4. The one argument I often use against the Fundie's interpretation of the end
Is in Matthew 24, where it is stated directly that no man knows the day or time of the Second Coming. As such, it is the height of arrogance to assume that you can preemptively cause it to happen through any action of your own. As to the rapture, it is anti-canonical to begin with. How to the evangelicals know that they aren't the very enemy noted in Revelations, for I have seen them do more to corrupt the principles of Christianity in recent history than many others.
