13. Out of 2 billion Christians worldwide, that is probably about right.
The majority of Christians in the world do not believe in a rapture of any kind. They do believe in the second coming of Christ, but that is not the same thing as the false doctrine of the rapture.

The problem here at DU, where so many are at best nonreligious and quite often mockingly anti-religious is that so many are out of their depth when it comes to understanding traditional Christian religious doctrine and so they are clueless when it comes to understanding who believes what or even "what" may be. I would be very surprised if there were many here who actually know anything about the rapture more than they have read in an article.
