Salon recently ran this interesting article on those Left Behind books. I’m something of a sucker for things like millennialism and Biblical prophecy and end-time thinking and all that, but I haven’t summoned up the urge to read this series. It just doesn’t sound like my cup of tea, really. (I also find the seriousness with which these books are taken — the idea that this is how it’s really going to be — rather creepy.)
