- These are the years of the Tribulation. It all started when, with a
- trumpet call and a loud command the Lord called forth the His children,
- living and dead. Millions witnessed the sight of dead believers
- springing out of their graves and the living and resurrected believers
- together rising up into the clouds. After that, things went downhill
- fast. The forces of hell no longer bother with their former use of
- deception. Instead, demons openly roam about killing anyone they
- encounter. A massive military deployment only aggravates the problem as
- central authority breaks down and Army, National Guard and Police forces
- degenerate into roving bands of desperate armed men.
-
- Desperate for some new delusion to believe in the face of the
- overwhelming evidence that Biblical Christianity is true and they are
- damned, the hysterical masses in their folly turn to the worship of the
- blackest and most terrible fiend of them all-- BARNEY!!! Everywhere
- billboards and posters extol the Purple False Messiah and his minions.
-
- Secure for the moment in your survivalist enclave, you wait for some
- indication that conditions will improve. But each day the sounds of
- shooting, screaming and roaring chainsaws increase, punctuated at
- intervals by that terrible singing:
-
- "I love you, you love me..."
-
- Everyone you once cared for is dead or caught up in the rapture with
- Jesus. With all utilities and services cut off, survival is a struggle
- and comfort and convenience are only a memory. There is no honor in
- clinging to life under these circumstances! Grimly, you take your
- pistol and go out into the corridors, determined to kill as many as
- possible before meeting your own inevitable violent death.
