The Second Life of Bioshock

Lately I've been enjoying breaks from the metaverse in Bioshock, the year's masterpiece computer game. In it, you explore a fantastic libertarian society founded by an idealistic CEO who wanted an alternate nation where artists and entrepreneurs could create and invent free from the constraints of the outside world.  Somewhere in its development, however, something went horribly wrong, and after an internal power struggle, the place, while still beautiful, is bursting at the seams and beset by antagonists.  This backstory was created as a brilliant counter-narrative to Atlas Shrugged, of course.  But occasionally-- like, say, most of last week-- the analogy cuts a bit closer to home.

This so call rapture that is described to happen before the world ends is quite interesting, many people believe it is going to happen when "GOD" reach for them, other believe that some aliens will come and are going to save us, many theories but at the end no one knows what is going to happen.
