Quote: POMPANO BEACH, Fla. (WSVN) -- Nearly a dozen billboards across South Florida claim that Judgment Day is less than two weeks away.
Radio host Harold Camping and his followers have calculated that the end of the world will occur on May 21. "It's going to be a horror story that we absolutely cannot conceive of. Millions of people will die on that day and everyday thereafter," Camping said.
According to Camping, who is the founder of the Family Radio network, Judgment Day will begin with earthquakes at 6 p.m. local time.
Camping's followers have been traveling around the world, spreading the word about the forthcoming day. "We see people that give us the thumb. They say, 'Thumbs up.' We also see people that, unfortunately, give us the other finger," said one devotee, Darryl Keats. link
I laughed at the bolded.

And after when it doesn't happen, the leader is gonna say he miscalculated and it's gonna happen next year instead.

Apparently this is already his second chance date, the first being in 1994.
Oh well - on the plus side, it means I won't have to worry about getting the brakes done on my wife's car, I'm pretty sure she'll be ok for two weeks!

There's billboards talking about it happening on the 21st where I live. One of my friends has already said on the 22nd he's gonna put up a sign under it saying "FAIL!"

wouldn't it suck if by a mere and huge coincidence, it really did happen? XD I'm not at all trying to agree with all this, but just an interesting "what if?"

It's funny because Christian beliefs prove this wrong.
edit: This guy is a Christian radio host, and this is rejected by the large groups of Christians. This is also his SECOND time he's predicted this.

I thought it was funny that in the article a few of them said that if they survived the end of the world they would know that they were 'not saved.' They would be sad but for the entirely wrong reason.
I swear. Its hard enough taking religion seriously without these people mucking it up.

The Bible itself more or less shoots this down in two separate parts.
Matthew 24:36-44 said:
36"But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone.
37"For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah.
38"For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,
39and they did not understand until the flood came and took them all away; so will the coming of the Son of Man be.
40"Then there will be two men in the field; one will be taken and one will be left.
41"Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken and one will be left.
42"Therefore be on the alert, for you do not know which day your Lord is coming.
43"But be sure of this, that if the head of the house had known at what time of the night the thief was coming, he would have been on the alert and would not have allowed his house to be broken into.
44"For this reason you also must be ready; for the Son of Man is coming at an hour when you do not think He will.
It comes up again in Mark.
Mark 13:32-33 said: But of that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone.
Take heed, keep on the alert; for you do not know when the appointed time will come.
I ain't losing any sleep on the night of the 20th. If it happens, it happens.
