I mean, knowing that they are exceedingly investment savvy, why would the christian catholics hang onto 30 year maturity-date bonds if god was going to come-a-calling them in the near future? Should we begin worrying about this "rapture" thing when they start converting all of their multi-billion dollar term deposits into cash?

Maybe they know that some of their members will be staying here on Earth and those 30-year bonds are for them.
Or maybe they've discovered a way to take it with them. (Because human savings bonds will of course be useful in Heaven post-rapture.)

No, it doesn't make them savvy; it makes them ignorant of the fact that putting away that money isn't going to save them from death/judgment. The scripture says, "Lay not up your treasure where moths doth corrupt and thieves break in and steal......"

I don't know that the catholics believe in the rapture. I know that the mormons don't.

That is too funny. Gotta love how some people think.

Please prove that Rome has a perfect understanding of God, then your claim may have validity.
