That’s the problem that non-Christians don’t understand. We think they’ll be afraid of the Anti-Christ, and do anything they can to avoid him, but they don’t see it that way.
Their ultimate objective is to get to heaven, and hang with God and Jesus (yeah, right, like they’ve been waiting throughout the history of mankind, just waiting for YOU to show up and brighten their day), and to do that, they have to go through the Rapture, and the Anti-Christ is what kicks that off.
So while it might be a bit inconvenient for a time, it will be worth it to get Raptured, and leave all the Atheists and bad Christians behind to suffer whatever torment they are fantasizing about.
So they welcome the Anti-Christ, the fucking weirdos.
I will also point out that the idea of a pre-tribulation Rapture is not biblically well-supported, and was pretty much made up out of whole cloth by dispensationalists in England as a way to make the idea of a doctrine focused on Revelation more palatable (“see, you’ll be taken to heaven in secret one day before all this happens”). It’s taken a LOT more root in America than it did in Europe, to the point that it’s mainstream doctrine among a lot of churches (thanks Tim LaHaye and Jerry B Jenkins for doing that, you weird fucks).
