I've extensively studied Revelation from a theistic point of belief, and yes, it does. The bible speaks of horrible tortures for humanity and doesn't schedule the rapture until that's already started. Furthermore, god only saves a fistful of Jews in that story; everyone else burns. Some think that the "multitude in white robes" represents Christians, but others think those are angels. Both claims are speculation, obviously, and the point is that when Jesus comes back, most of humanity is supposedly fucked by locust-lion-scorpion-human monsters.

And is that not supposed to last for a thousand years?
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

God has no place within these walls, just as facts have no place within organized religion.
-- Superintendent Chalmers

Science is like a blabbermouth who ruins a movie by telling you how it ends. There are some things we don't want to know. Important things.
-- Ned Flanders

Once something's been approved by the government, it's no longer immoral.
