"So what would you think if two billion people vanished?"

[farla]

It seems "Rapture! OHSHIT!" really is the most common response to people vanishing. I was hoping other belief systems had some sort of fallback explanation. Also, for a spirited defense of the Alien option. I may need to repost the question to the religious forum. They might be a better source for x religion's thoughts on mass vanishings.

Off to answer emails and suchlike now.

Exactly, just because the event seems guided by an intelligence, there's no need to assume that narrows it down to just God.
