Farewell, world.
It's been an okay life. I won't be falling in love and having that magical wedding I've planned every detail of, but it was amazing to dream about. I won't graduate from college with my much desired degree, nor will I ever make it off of this mountain. I won't have any children. I won't make it to Ireland. Thirty years are gone by, but not another shall pass. Why? The end. The end is coming, but first...the rapture!!!!!
Listen up, folks. This coming weekend, people are going to vanish. If you're not ready for Christ's biblically scheduled Saturday return, don't be one bit surprised if you come home from your sinful visit to the bar to find family members gone for good. Immediately after Christ raptures the church on May 21st at 6:00PM, chaos will ensue. You can expect to hear of accidents on every roadway being traveled in the world. Sinners who miss their chance will be screaming like lunatics, stealing and murdering. The Antichrist will rise to power in midst of this chaos, bring about order and peace, and then in October, God will destroy this world. I realize there's supposed to be seven years of tribulation or some such, but hey, an engineer has figured all of this shit out by taking various dates and numbers from the bible (and not), done some brilliant fucking math, and has let the rest of the world in on this ever so vital piece of information that only he had the sense to figure out. By the way, a ginormous earthquake will begin in New Zealand at 6:00PM, their time, and spread all over the world. Look forward to that as well. You can read an article about this impending doom here.
Shouldn't we be doing people like this guy a favor by forcing them into psychiatric hospitals where they can get the therapy and anti-psychotic medication they need? Apparently, back in 1994, he also predicted the rapture. What's really amazing is that quite a few people believed him, gathered together at some memorial all dressed up, held open bibles and looked up toward the heavens. When nothing happened, oops! He'd miscalculated. Of course. This time, he's certain of his calculations! Bless his neurotic heart. I truly hate it when the mentally ill aren't getting the treatment they need.
Harold Camping is nuts, plain and simple. Even if I were a Christian I wouldn't put any faith in him. He's just the most recent religious lunatic to burst onto the scene with doom and gloom warnings. Once the date and time passes, I'm sure he will once again regretfully inform his followers that he done his math wrong, after which he will return to figuring. He really needs to hurry if he wants to let us know when the end is, though. I mean, dude is old.
Do any of you actually believe in his claims? Why or why not?
Maybe if the rapture occurs on Saturday there will be so much disruption and chaos that I won't have to pay my electric bill this month. I'd hate to live without electricity, even if for only the five months Camping claims we'll see after Christ comes as a thief in the night...before he destroys the world, I mean. If I only have a few months left to live, this chick is going to have as much pleasure as possible before it's lights out then fiery flames. I'm also going to steal a Bentley and drive around like I'm the shit. I'm not leaving till I have some real fun.

I am both an atheist and a scientific skeptic, so no, I don't buy any of this garbage. However, the matter does bring up some legitimate cause for concern.
It's been getting a lot of discussion on my atheist podcasts, for example, and we're worried about all these people who have sold everything they have and either given it away and/or bought advertising for the rapture. They're going to be destitute. An even bigger concern is the unstable people who may end up doing things like killing their children to ensure that they are "saved".
This is an exactly an instance of how damaging religion is. You've already seen someone slit their child's throat because they think the rapture is coming.
The end of the world is not coming... and this comes from a person that had a dream about the end of the world recently. Religious people would call that a "vision", I call it too much TV or video games. I commend you for calling "crazy" what it is.
That's too bad there are people like this. But then Jesus predicted that their would be people like this. So I'm not surprised. Jesus said not to believe it. No one knows the date or time.
This shit isn't going to happen. People been trying to predict the end of the world since the 60s.
He gives a bad name for engineers :-/ (and Christians.)
@Auxesis - If they are crazy then isn't this a good example of how damaging insanity can be? Or, at best, isn't that an example of how damaging cults can be?
I am a follower of Christ and I say what happens happens, God is in control and I'll let him be God and I'll stick to being me.
I want these people who believe it will happen to sign me as their power of attorney so just in case I can take care of their house, lawns, and pets. And if they are wrong, well then I can have control of their finances.
