Fun filled discussion of the day:p.

Ok so I get up this morning and hear on the radio that some guy named Harold Camping who is apparently a devote Christian with a radio program states that the world will end on May 21, 2011. So I did a little looking into Mr. Camping. It didn't take me 5 seconds to realize he is just a guy who is using religion for money. All I had to see was that he predicted the world would in 1994. Way to go Harold, you missed one mark so you waited a great number of years before bringing it up again. I can't stand greedy religious nuts like this that give everyday Christians such a bad name. Ugh. Ok done with my little spat about crazy ol' Harold. Maybe Harold missed Mark 13:32 -

"But of that day and [that] hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father."

So what is your opinion on cooky Howard?
Prophet or Phoney.

For everybody who has been talking about this date (there is a billboard down the road from my work), I keep bringing up the same verse you did (Mark 13:32).

Nobody at our church has discussed it, and it should be interesting to see what Mr Camping has to say Sunday morning.

(Although if my family and I are not around to hear Mr Camping Sunday morning, I will offer him a heartfelt apology [grin] )

Not being a Christian, I probably shouldn't weigh in on this, though I do despise people that exploit other's beliefs for money.

Um you guys are idiots.

The world did end in 1994, it happens to be ending again in a few days and well will probably end a few more times in each of our lifetimes.

Sheeesh some people have no faith!



















Newsvendor: I see the world didn't end yesterday.

There is NO NEED TO PANIC! Send me $1000, and I'll reserve you a place in my apocalypse shelter. Not only will it protect you from the apocalypse, but it's SHAPED like a giant Apocalypse. For a mere $500 more, you can reserve one of the luxury Horsemen rooms for you and your family.

Please note: Payment is due before the apocalypse starts. Space is limited, so act now! allpaymentsarenonrefundable

hahahaha...I'm a Christian and I even find that funny. Only because it is poking hard core at Harold and not the actual Rapture.

It's just such a shame that people like him get the press, while all of the good and vaulable things that other Christians are doing go unnoticed to America at large.

Its the same for Republicans and Democrats too - so many do actually try to work with each other, but the news likes to cover the pissing matches, which only makes things worse.

Amen brother. Our media spends all of its time attacking symptoms instead of problems. Probably because symptoms are easier to attack...
