End of World May 21, 2011 not Dec 21, 2012

acording to some loon at the Christian Science Monitor,
The world will start to end on May 21, 2011 and many of us will die!!!

As you may have learned from one of the 2,000 billboards worldwide, May 21, 2011, is Judgment Day, upon which the righteous – which totals 3 percent of humanity – will be whisked away to the sweet hereafter, leaving the rest of us to weather five months of extreme natural disasters until Oct. 21, whereupon God destroys the entire universe and everyone left in it.

At least that's what Harold Camping says. The head of Family Radio broadcasting network, which boasts 150 outlets in the United States, has what his website calls "infallible, absolute proof" that there's no point in making plans for Memorial Day weekend. It goes like this:

Camping says that because Jesus was crucified on Friday, April 1, 33 AD, and that it takes exactly 365.2422 days for the earth to complete one orbit of the sun, we can conclude that, on April 1, 2011, Jesus was crucified exactly 722,449.07 days ago. Add 51 days to this to get to May 1, and you get a figure of 722,500.07.


Round that down to the nearest integer, and you get 722,500, which is an important number because it is the square of 5 x 17 x 10 . The number five, says Camping, represents atonement. Ten represents completeness, and 17 represents heaven. Multiply all these together – twice – and you get 722,500. Therefore the apocalypse kicks off on Saturday, May 21.

amazing, people like this get paid to come up with these MATH twisting ideas.

Wow. Sad how people think.

I guess I have to paint and lowered my car before the end of the world!
I have few days left!!

[Soltakr]

I slept in the last time the world was suppost to end, so I'm excited to catch this one.

[SHines-IT]

Party!!!

[raynor139]

Yeah he had this theory in the 90s also it didnt happen then. He blamed it on bad science. Wonder what his next excuse will be.

[67CamaroRSSS]

My ideas about this are neither religiously nor politically correct.

Safe to say this loons exegetically preposterous spoutings will bring him shame...

[CanadianGoat]

Camping is an idiot that needs to read revelations more. there are several things that haven't happened yet that comes before the rapture. one being 1000 years with Satan in the pits of hell before being released again . I assume that during that 1000 years there will be complete peace with no corruption because satan isn't tempting people and I am sorry but there has not been peace and a whole lot of corruption between the death of Jesus and now. Another thing is all trades with Babylon will cease, parts of iran,iraq,syria,and turkey make up babylon and we sure as hell know that nobody has quit trades with them. I can make math work to make people believe what I want as well.

Deluded assholes IMHO...

We're probably better off without them.

no one knows when the good lord will return.....

"But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into. You also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him."


"for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape."

Harold Camping has made a few swings at this before. His previous due dates, after missing his first swing of Sept. 6th, 1994 were:

(1) September 15, 1994, the Jewish Day of Atonement
(2) September 25, 1994, the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles
(3) October 4, 1994, the actual birthday of Jesus that Mr. Camping calculated
(4) December 25, 1994, our traditional celebration of Christmas
(5) February 25, 1995, the Jewish Feast of Purim
(6) May 3, 1996, the result of (Mark 13:35) extended the September 6, 1994, date

Batting average of Nolan Ryan.

I just bought a new car. If this happens, I won't even have time to switch my insurance!!!

God told me this guy is full of shit...

maybe we SHOULD drink the kool-aid

Nobody on this planet knows or can predict when the return of Christ and the virtual end of the world will begin.

If the bastards at the Westboro BC get hit with an asteroid first then I'll start to believe it.
