And here's something from a Myspace blog (unlike blogspot, Myspace does not seem to support linking directly to its users' accounts.) This came from one of the members of Die Wurzau:

"In 1996, Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins wrote a fictionalized account of the final days of mankind after the rapture. 10 or so books later, the Left Behind series has sold tens of millions of copies and spent years total on the NY Times best seller list. The books are phenomenally paranoid, positioning Israel as finally accepting the messiahship of Christ and showcasing an antichrist who is a former Secretary General of the UN. The book reads like a nuthouse dissertation on what Christianity, led by charming and persuasive but morally abject men, might hope to get out of the future. Satan’s headquarters? Bagdad, Iraq, of course.

Written by a nut, right? Actually, if the name Tim LaHaye sounds familiar it is because he was a member of the first board of directors of the Moral Majority, and a founder of the Council for National Policy. ABCNews.com called the CNP "the most powerful conservative organization in America you've never heard of" and listed their membership as including Oliver North, John Ashcroft and Tommy Thompson among others. Written by an insider is more like it. This is a story about American Christians fighting back against a conspiracy of Demon-worshipping, gun monitoring abortionist, gay rights advocating globalists.

I could go on all day about this series but that’s not exactly what this is about. It’s about heaven here, on earth, in the place where it would do the most good, now, today. By the day, this goal- the goal of building our heaven right here where we stand, is being lost and confused in the frantic rush to get to wherever the hell it is people like Tim LaHaye think they are going next. At the risk of offending people who, Like LaHaye, are busy packing to get a move on elsewhere I want to point some things out.

When the Pope stands up and issues a papal decree opposing a piece of fiction in which a young witch boy fights evil compassionately and wisely with the help of his friends, while teaching 10 year olds how to read 700 page books in their spare time and completely ignores the fact that children worldwide are having their genitals blown off on a daily basis by landmines that the developed nations sunk but have no interest in removing, he is BIDING HIS TIME on this planet. He doesn’t live here. He doesn’t care. This planet has become a waystation for him- a place to rest and wait until he moves on to his final destination. He deserves to be ignored. He is a fucking TOURIST.

When high ranking Church officials issue decrees that evolution, the most predictive and successful dynamic in the history of biology, one that saves millions of lives a year in discovery and treatment possibilities, is wrong and ignores the fact that every frog on this planet will be dead in 25 years along with every banana, many species of monkey and more integral small animal species than you can name in a week, they are BIDING THEIR TIME on this planet. They are guests. They have no interest in picking up their dirty laundry off the ground- They’re not staying.

And when Church leaders dole out decrees sending this person or that to hell for falling in love with someone of the same sex while 100 million pounds of Cancer causing chemicals are poured into the water around them yearly completely without peaking their interest, they have made it clear that they are BIDING THEIR TIME on this planet. They are standing at the train station mouthing off to the locals on the way out of town. They don’t live here.

Here’s the fucked thing. We do. When a woman is raped every 8 seconds and a child dies from hunger every 5 seconds on this planet I find that I run out of patience with tourists and guests. I want to work with the people who live here- on this planet- to make it better. I want to work with people who know that their fates have everything to do with trying to help the 700,000 high school students that are going to try to commit suicide this year, and every one of the 3 million American kids living on the street practicing survival sex for their next meal. These people are my family and my neighbors. They live here and so do the rest of us.

I don’t have a problem with people who believe that the rapture is going to bring them to heaven tomorrow. I don’t take issue with people who believe that they are leaving this planet soon for a better place. I wish them all luck. I hope they like their new digs. At the same time, I want to mention to them what I do when I’m a tourist in someone else’s country. I try to shut about and not look like an ass. I try to leave every place better than I found it.

If these people- popes, administration officials, church leaders, masters of industry, etc- if these people have no interest in staying here and making this planet work with the rest of us, their opinion of how we are handling it?

It’s worth zero. "
