Terry Bisson (whose "Fire on the Mountain" I consider the greatest alternate world Science Fiction story ever written) has a very fun read out "The Left Left Behind" with PM press. It is a satire on the "Left Behind" series the world becomes a much better place without the people who are raptured. So this is how the rapture is reported on Pacifica in this light hearted fantasy: ".. without the heads of state. The new Secretary General of the United Nations, Vlad, has declared a new World Government. And now for ten hours of uninterrupted harmonica music played by chimpanzees".
