Ok, so we all depart earth-time at different times, and arrive in God-time at the same time. That God time, would that not be what we would call the 'rapture'? If we all arrive in God time at the moment Christ is returning to gather us ... thus every eye will see it regardless of when they left.
Well the Rapture will be an event at a certain universe time.. It's going to be observed from earth by those who do not take part in it..

As for when they left ( died ) It could well be that the time they experience between death and Resurrection is experienced in Gods time not universe time..

That's not what Jesus said. He said his first century generation is when those things would happen. Those signs have nothing to do with which generation. You can accept what Jesus said or continue to distort what he said. I'll go with what Jesus said, without distortion. Also, your interpretation boils down to the dumbness of "These things will happen in the generation when they happen." How do you deal with the Temple being destroyed in 70 AD, in the fist century, not a later generation? Don't answer, because you have no answer.
I have no problem with the temple being destroyed in 70 AD.. Why should i have a problem with that??

Also you have misquoted me which i find to be bordering on bearing false witness I did not say """"These things will happen in the generation when they happen.""" which i bold in your post .. I said Quote: ""this generation"" is the generation that will see all these things ( spoken of by Jesus) come to pass.. ""
