You underestimate both the fundie desperation to be terrified of the dark, and the need for the preachers to cling on to their little bit of power. They'll simply move the date of the fapture so it's just out of reach, with just the right amount of weather events as signs, to keep the anxiety levels up.
It's pathetically self-defeating when you consider that rapture retards should be welcoming the end of the world. In fact, they should be on the front lines of making it happen.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
