I would ask the question though. If millions of people did suddenly disappear from the earth, would you consider the rapture had taken place or that all those people had been abducted by aliens?

You are right Lady Brave but end times theology has taken on a new intensity over recent years and this is concentrated to the south primarily. At least that's my understanding. Many people have described this as a new movement within Christianity, even though it's based on beliefs that pretty much all Christians accept.
In answer to your second question, I would probably come here and check the parking lot to find out what had really happened.
