End Time Visions: the doomsday obsession

This guy goes up against people like Hal Lindsey, Tim LaHaye and others:

quote:
An investigative reporter presents a careful refutation to poorly argued end-of-the-world scenarios put forward by popular "prophetic" writers, including Jack Van Impe, Tex Marrs, Chuck Missler, Tim LaHaye, Pat Robertson and Hal Lindsey.



I'll admit I've never read the book myself, but I'm going to get it from the library the first chance I get.

Man, I really hate that Hal Lindsey. I used to listen to his goofy radio program and found it to be particularly irresponsible. And how he can even show his fact after nothing in his Late, Great, Planet Earth actually came true suggests that he either has balls, or that he knows his audience is made up largely of dupes...
