Can you point to any of the Early Church Fathers (available here) who taught anything remotely like the rapture?
"I'm an atheist, by gar, but if I wuz to believe again, I sure as heck wouldn't be no dang-nabbit Catholic 'cause that's not what we...I mean I...I mean them true Bible Christians believe."
Oh, and I do play the bagpipes, btw. Just sayin'.

There's no such thing as a True Christian, Randy. Catholics think they're the only True Christians, Protestants think they're the only True Christians, Jehovah's witnesses think they're the only True Christians, and Mormons think they're the only True Christians, too. They all have writings and humans extolling their True Christianity, and they all have roughly the same level of evidence to back them (which is to say not one bit). Catholics are not True Christians because there is no such thing.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)
