message: :Image:Leftbehind4.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Leftbehind4.jpg

message: The Left Behind franchise was put into audio form (not audio-book, but dramatized with sound effects). It was done by Gap Digital (www.gapdigital.com). Why isn't there a page on Wikipedia about this? It's also hard to find references to it on Google. I thought that the episodes were very professionally recorded with good actors. Much more entertaining than the books themselves.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.59.150.74 (talk) 06:46, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

message: This section needs to be rewritten. I don't know enough about eschatology to say whether I'm offended or not, but the fact is a lot of people believe in the rapture and a neutral encyclopedia has no business in bashing them like that.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Supernerd 10 (talk • contribs) 21:47, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Left Behind (series) → Left Behind — Proposal is to locate the article about the series at Left Behind and the article about the specific book at Left Behind (novel). It seems quite probable to me that the phrase "Left Behind" is used more often to refer to the series, and the franchise, as a whole, than to the series' first book. For example,  the first ten results of a Google News Search (as of this writing) all use "Left Behind" to refer to the series, not the book. Propaniac (talk) 17:19, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Requested move 

message: I don't know if anyone else agrees, but I thought all the info on how the series was criticized by some people was too extensive. It looks like someone who didn't like Left Behind went in and wrote down a long list of complaints or something. You know, the criticism part is the longest part of the whole article. It's excessive, and I think it needs to be revised. Not the whole thing, just cut out some so the page isn't one sided, or maybe balance it more by adding commentary on the positive reception the series received. --69.128.204.110 (talk) 03:16, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm tempted to fill in the missing "Protestant" section but I don't have enough theological background to make an authoritative statement.   All I can say is I attend and work in a Protestant church and most of the concepts of "Left Behind" are utterly alien to me, and I suspect to most Protestants. 2601:C2:201:2B85:C4A9:DD49:1200:856F (talk) 06:50, 29 November 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Comment on the "Criticism" Section On the Left Behind Page 

message: Okay, I can understand the idea behind listing it primarily in chronological order but it's just confusing. It makes more sense (and almost every other book series) listing in in publication order and then making note its chronological order (the opposite of what's done on this page). The reason for this is that the reading order matches the publication order. You don't start a series by reading the prequels, you start with what was published first. Just my opinion.72.89.142.185 (talk) 17:38, 20 May 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Book Section Order 

message: Under the section labeled Catholicism there is a statement in the first paragraph stating that many thought the books were anti-catholic since many Catholics were not raptured.  Some might interpret this to mean the authors were anti-catholic; therefore, the books are anti-catholic, which they are not.  There is a distinction between being anti-catholic and being anti-catholicism.  Tim LeHaye wrote the book Revelation Unveiled.  The material he included in this book indicates that he can be considered anti-catholicism rather than anti-catholic.  Neither are the books anti-Jewish. Different cultures, races, and different lifestyle groups take serious offense and issue public statements of "prejudice!" when an opinion differs from their own rather than examine the statement rationally. I would like to see the article make note of the difference between anti-catholic and anti-catholicism. Fredrikke Taylor67.65.160.92 (talk) 19:53, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

message: I see no need to constantly reference how the Left Behind books are like other populist books?  Is it some weird attempt at legitimisation?2.126.127.10 (talk) 18:48, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I haven't read the article in that much depth. Can you cite the locations of these comparisons in the text? Ckruschke (talk) 19:56, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
