Swore that the Biblical end times were upon us and that the rapture is nigh. Silly books about all the true christians getting sucked up into the sky by Jesus. Just pointing out that his mortal coil is still earthbound.
Actually
John of patmos wrote the original story line. Tim just framed in modern times.
Just like "The Late Great Planet Earth" and "A Thief in the Night". Personally, I think these kinds modern of interpretations are highly irresponsible because they trivialize a highly symbolic book and turn it into a materialistic scare story. It would actually be more interesting if they did it as an alegorical cartoon version showing actual locusts with human faces and scorpion tales etc.
