Oh, wow - I just came across the Catholic Answer to the Left Behind series -

a group of books about the end times based on prophecies by various saints! Take that, you Protestants !

Seriously, this fills the void many fundamentalist Catholics have felt since we don't really talk about the Rapture all that much.

And Dan Brown better watch out as well!

When I was researching Catholicism I spent some time there, that was my first experience with "Catholic fundamentalists." Those people are so right-wing it's scary.
