What Happened to Harold Camping and the World Ending on May, 21st

I first wrote this article, about Harold Camping and his ministry's doomsday message, on May 20th, 2011, the day before the supposed great Rapture event. The Rapture is a Christian ideal, which millions of Christian believers feel has to happen, before the end of the world draws near. The Rapture is described as, an instantaneous evaporation of a mass group of faithful Christians followers, up to heaven. Which is the starting point for the world's end.

Harold Camping claimed that on May 21, 2011 the great Rapture would take place, and that in five months time the world would come to a final end on October 21, 2011. Since writing this article I am here to report to you; there have not been any vast evaporation of large masses of people (of any kind). As far as that goes- the world certainly doesn't seem to be coming to an end, anytime soon either. As for Harold Camping why hasn't he been charge with fraud? His single exclamation of this global event, actually fooled people into giving away thousands of dollars, by backing Camping's claims. However instead of paying back the money, Harold Camping went underground for a while, and now has come out with a new Rapture/World End doomsday date. What should be the legal ramifications of making purely speculative Rapture/Doomsday predictions in lieu of making money? Is America going to have to suffer another Waco or Jonestown crisis, before somebody wakes up to this tragedy and the criminal actions of a crazy old man?

Another area that needs to be addressed, is what is it that makes people want to follow the ravings of mad men? It's not like the world comes and goes all the time, like tornadoes in rain storm somewhere over the states of Missouri, Texas, Kansas or Oklahoma. The world has been rotating on it's axis for a better part of forty billion years. Frankly curious, why did the people of his ministry believe that it wouldn't continue to do so? How does a single aging individual, gain this incredible means of power? Read my original article, and tell me what you think. Is the Rapture nearer than we Christians want to believe it is?

If you haven't heard it already, the world as we know it is suppose to end on Saturday, and all the worthy Christians to be raptured. This latest detail about the world's future, has nothing to do with the Mayan prophecy, nor the infamous Nostradamus quadrants. No, this prediction is special. Not even the great seer Edgar Casey saw this doomsday coming.

But despite the fact that the coming of Jesus Christ, has been repeatedly predicted (at a 100% failure rate) for the past two thousand years, Family Life Radio spokesperson/preacher Harold Camping, stakes his life on this self-calculated, predication date of May 21, 2011. Earmarking this coming Saturday, as the fateful day of "the Rapture;" an event that Christians all over the world, have been waiting over two thousand years to occur. What makes Camping's prediction unique from his counterparts prediction dates is his resource- the "NKJV Bible," and his reasoning- "The bible guarantees it." Oh, and the minor detail that his Google translator on his personal, home computer "speaks Jew". Now, I'm not making this up people. You can read all about this guy and his many followers on several different sites on the web.

Harold Camping's religious movement is based out of California. Where many of his followers purchased expensive, advertising packages, using large billboards as their main media source; spreading the message The Bible Guarantees it through out the state of California, and other states located in the Southwest region. This is not the first time Camping has made such a proclamation on the coming of Christ, the Rapture and Doomsday. His claims that the reason why his first prediction date turned out to be wrong- was the result of miscommunication between languages. Simply put..., Harold Camping "doesn't speak Jew." He went on by saying that since the time period of his first prediction date, he has since discovered Google translator. After the remarkable discovery of Google's translator was made, he was then able to re-translate, his Jew-speaking Jew bible into English.

When asked by reporters on how he came up with the May 21, 2011 date, Mr. Camping claimed he started with the date of Noah's flood, and after carefully analyzing other "existing" biblical dates, simple arithmetic did the rest. Armed with Google Translator and his handy-dandy calculator, Mr. Camping was now able to confirm that Jesus Christ will be in the USA on May 21, 2011. Although Mr. Camping was unable to provide an exact time for Christ's arrival. He did advise all Christians to leave their pets with good Atheist people. This way all worthy Christians could have some peace of mind about leaving their animals behind, and to that of their future survival. Even though they would be dead in October- Mr. Camping went onto say. Mr. Camping's main reasons on advising his followers to only use good Atheists was because, "we all know" that Atheists don't belong in heaven. Thus, Mr. Camping went on to explain, Atheists won't be going anywhere on Saturday, May 2, 2011. He furthered went on to say, that if Christians in the state of California needed help getting rid of their pets before Saturday; his followers had a paid group of Atheists, standing by and ready to take pets away.

Mr. Camping continued on to explain that in October of this year, five months to the date of the coming Rapture (again this Saturday), evil will over take the world, killing all of the pets and Atheists anyways, thus sending the rest of the population straight to hell. With a special emphasis (it seems) on Jew speaking people.

I first heard about Mr. Camping's religious movement from my Atheist husband Mike. How ironic is that? At first I was like, "WTF?", but felt much better about Mr. Camping and his doomsday prediction; upon reading his personal recommendations about the Atheists and our pets. I mean seriously, you gotta know that the first thing that came to my mind (when reading this enthralling piece of crap) was where would I leave my three cats! NOT!! The truth is I was appalled by Mr. Camping's ignorance on God's ancient people, and was embarrassed by the facts that he is an American, and secondly that he calls himself a Christian. I have to admit that it is times like these that I wonder if E.T.s are really living here on planet earth. I find it mind blowing that people like Harold Camping actually exist! And, and..... he is not alone. He has followers, supporting him financially and backing his religious movement. How crazy is that?

It is quite clear to me, that this wack-a-doodle is not from the same planet as we are. He has clearly lost his mind and is definitely "out of this world." Is he not? You tell me, is Mr. Camping in the here and now, and do you think his predictions are correct?

Cheers......, I look forward to reading your responses, and Happy Rapture's Eve everyone!
