Is it "arrogant" if somebody believed that they'd be save at the proverbial RAPTURE ????

What the hell? Is this even a question? I don't understand your confusion.

If it's arrogance, it's an arrogance borne of delusion.

And, if it doesn't hurt me....I'm not offended. But when you start pushing religion on me with your arrogance; then I will fight back, fiercely.

We're agnostic.
We're scientists.

We faced no Santa around 4 or 5. No Easter bunny. No tooth fairy.

I feel sad and sorry tor the delusional arrogant #religulous of the world who just don't get it. Richard Dawkins has summed it up nicely for me;

Absolutely, especially when your being saved either causes harm to others and makes you all important.

I think there's a smug superiority involved. If they really did end up in heaven, they would probably start arguing who was the holiest up there.

I’m sure there are those who probably believe they are among God’s chosen few. Is it arrogance for them to believe this or merely that they are gullible dupes? I’d say the latter.

It’s stupid!

The Rapture is from a C19th translation of the Bible by John Darby snd has no theology pedigree.

It is from a particularly C19th Americanised version of Christianity named after Darby called Darbyism.
