US preacher warns end of the world is nigh: 21 May, around 6pm, to be precise - Americas, World - The Independent


"The end of the world is nigh; 21 May, to be precise. That's the date when Harold Camping, a preacher from Oakland, California, is confidently predicting the Second Coming of the Lord. At about 6pm, he reckons 2 per cent of the world's population will be immediately "raptured" to Heaven; the rest of us will get sent straight to the Other Place."

don't say you weren't warned.

Based on a review of my life, they are holding a management position for me in "the other place". To my friends, I've got you covered.

This is his alternate plan. Apparently he was late for boarding calls on the Hale-Bopp Comet back in '97. Been flying standby ever since.

funny [?] you should mention this. We have a 78 year old with a van in our Sonoma that I saw again today with his glossies and signs preaching to us poor, ignorant types.

I am almost fearful on what I'll read on the 22nd
The end of the world is nigh - Sonoma News - News 2011 - Sonoma, CA [copyright Sonoma Index Tribune, link without permission]

We live about 1 block off the square so missing this guy is impossible....We wave every morning..he looks dumbfounded.

I'm so glad he made if bi-lingual.....leaves all the other unwanted types out of heaven [and yes that's a crude, if not funny joke on that group's take on the end times.]

BUt on a more serious note: I got dibbs on the van on a bad note: I hope there are qualified tech left over to service it....we all know they will make it into heaven.

Remember as to OP link, it's happening at 6PM..... I'm not sure how they calculated the time or if EST or PST, so please don't be driving give or take three hours either way: You have been warned.

This was him yesterday when I stopped for gas, eating a Danish with Latte...good to see he's taking it so well.

Well, if I knew I was going to meet the Man, I'd probably dress up just a bit...

Then again, his shirt does say it only "begins" on the 21st. Maybe this is a long drawn-out process?

If I was as confident as him my credit card balances would be much higher, the package store would be "out of stock", and I would be on the move. Id be relocating because all the pretty girls around here would see me coming.

Those religious/prophecies-types are always wrong in their predictions.
They're all like 0/10+

Shows how much you suckers know. Heaven turned out to be a lot like before I was taken. I even have my Ferraris... bad news is gas prices did not change. No virgins either and the internet is not only slower but but more heavily regulated: damn ( ya, we can say that one but try and say @#$%&!*?) Must be in the Christian side. I heard the guys in'the other place' have Ferrari in only red/tan with Really hot chicks: #%#@@* *$#@@! %%$*#@@ and $@&%%!!!!! The choices one makes. I could live with red/tan.

Glad to see your all still here!!

I was driving at that time and I actually thought I died and went to heaven.
The sound and feel of my car was all I needed no need to listen to a wacky preacher..Did they interview this guy again!? haha

Cheers

Wonder what all those screwballs are going to say now. I spent my time drinking surrounded by beautiful women, if it was my time to go I was taking them with me

Mr. Camping is now saying he misunderstood the true meaning...its really going to happen in October now. Guess he forgot to carry the 2.
