on May 22nd.
Apologies to all.

That's okay - we'll all be with you. Or not. I don't think they'll take people like me - you know - liberals :)
Well I'm not going if they're taking liberals......

If there's any religion involved I'm definitely not going

Well, that's kind of a NO-OP .. I'm sorry to have to view your char-roasted remains
on a sanctified rotisserie .. but you knew that was coming.. :-)

Char-roasted? I'd be much better hard boiled

you can't choose your manner of eternal damnation .. sorry .. char-roasted has been
confirmed by 9 out of 10 Biblical radio personalities.

Must be a British thing... ;)
the same family radio goof balls also predicted this in 1994.
They've got about 12 billboards here in Dallas.
Darn good thing this place exists:

Will be sure to wear clean underwear that day.

So...whats happening may 22 ?Are we going to be homeless?
I had to google this. Fancy God only informing America. Inconsiderate git. I'm still packing though, have stolen Isabel's Fairy wings from Halloween for my Angel housewarming party on the 23rd. Isabel broke her mum's glasses and blamed me so she won't be needing them >:(.

for details. they have signs all over the SF Bay Area .. of course, the fact that he
predicted wrong before has no bearing on this one .. he's right this time.
1. 1978 â€" Camping declares to his Alameda Church that the rapture would occur in 1978
2. September 6, 1994 â€" Camping prediction # 2 â€" Based on 1994?
3. September 15, 1994 â€" Camping prediction # 3 â€" Based on 1994?
4. September 29, 1994 â€" Camping prediction # 4 â€" Based on 1994?
5. October 2, 1994 â€" Camping prediction #5 â€" Claimed Christ was born Oct 2, in 7AD and would return exactly 2000 years later.
6. December 25, 1994 â€" Camping prediction # 6 â€" Camping claims that Christ will return on Christmas and that the Bible supported this.
7. March 16, 1995 (Purim) â€" Camping prediction # 7 â€" Camping claims this is “Watch # 1″ of a new wave of dates.
8. September 24, 1995 â€" Camping prediction # 8 â€" Camping claims this is “Watch # 2″ â€" Camping claims that there is Biblical evidence of Christ returning “383 days†after September 6, 1994. Camping also claims that September 24, 1995 is 721 + 91 Ceros(A ceros is little over 18 years â€" 223 lunar cycles or revolutions. A ceros is the complete revoluation of the sun, moon, stars and planets) â€" Camping claims that these revolutions can predict the end. Camping also states that if you divide the 2300 days of Daniel 8 by the number “6″ you get 383. Thus, according to Camping, you can add 383 days to September 6, 1994 and come to September 24, 1995. September 24, 1995 ends the magic 383 day period.
9. April 3, 1996 â€" Passover (Watch # 3)- Camping prediction # 9 â€" Camping claims that there is Biblical evidence of Christ returning 191 days after September 25, 1995 on the Passover.
10. May 3, 1996 â€" Camping prediction # 10 â€" Camping claims that there is a 30 day grace period after April 3, 1996 which Christ can return.

Why do all these so-called believers ignore that one key phrase that appears Biblically several times: "...like a thief in the night?"
Sigh.

Or this one: "No man knows the hour or day...".

"Any doubt that date may be wrong. You know what, no. I've studied it and it's straight from the bible and it's straight from god's mouth. I don't believe god could be wrong. I believe God wrote it for a purpose, I don't have any doubt at this point," said Michelle Kim, a follower of Camping from the Bay Area.Now i'm no biblical scholar (no, honestly, i'm not), but surely that is a pearler of a mistake right there.
Is this one of those, 'if you weren't saved it's because you didn't donate enough money to my church kind of thing?'
Those poor Mayans are late again.
At the risk of dipping into an topic that is taboo on this site... I think the issue comes back to literal interpretation versus figurative. For some folks May 21st will be the rapture. For most of us 'the final day' is undetermined.
But then I still don't understand why 'Revelations' was included in the modern bible when other texts were omitted.
Seriously, though-- Somebody had better put these people on a Heaven's Gate Kool-Aid watch.

Thin the herd.
Wife and I were walking across 45th St. and Broadway in NYC on Saturday night, and there is a guy in his 60's standing on the very crowded corner holding a sign above his head about the date in question. He was railing on about the Rapture at the top of his lungs. As we get to the curb, a guy walks up to him and says "Hey man, give me your watch since you won't be needing it next week".
I'd like to say hilarity ensued, but it was just uncomfortable to watch.
Two days people!!! ... I'll Tweet as soon as I'm raptured.

Oh right. You'll forget us so fast.

Rapture prank: On Saturday, take some of your old clothes and shoes and leave sets of them arranged on sidewalks and lawns around town.

Why? Do they not allow clothes? I'm not too happy about meeting the big man in my birthday suit. It puts me at a distinct disadvantage when it comes to negotiating my entrance into eternal paradise. I'm going to need my very best game face for that talk.

I wasn't raptured .. now I'm stuck with you guys for all eternity!!
I think I was at the grocery store when the Rapture hit. Funny how the afterlife seems pretty much the same.
Does that mean I am in purgatory?
Armageddon tired of all this Rapture talk... ;)

No it means you are in a Grocery Store. What? Didn't you think we ate here in the after life?

Well, at least your rapture is clever. ;)

Apparently the end of the world got postponed. Something the four horsemen got delayed by a PETA rally and then there some kind of union contract negotiation breakdown between the archangels and upper management.
