Harold camping, the guy who predicted the Judgment Day and 1994 prediction will predict this thing. This gonna fail again

I suppose that if he theoretically keeps naming dates until eternity, eventually he'll be right.

I suppose that if he theoretically keeps naming dates until eternity, eventually he'll be right.

Unfortunately for him, he'll be dead before he gets it right.

I think I'd go along with Adam Carolla's take on this guy. He's more than welcome to make predictions about the rapture, but with one condition. He must sit in a chair on the day he claims to be the rapture, with a loaded shotgun pointed at his head. The shotgun is primed to go off an hour after the rapture is due to start, to give a margin for error.

If the rapture genuinely happens, he has nothing to worry about and he'll have ascended an hour before the gun goes off. On the other hand, if he's talking out of his backside like he does every time he predicts the rapture, then he gets his head blown off and we don't have to put up with it again. Either that, or he stops making moronic publicity-seeking predictions and doesn't get put in the shotgun seat.

It's your own fault for getting so annoyed. People, just ignore him. The more attention this guy gets the more famous he will get. If you people get annoyed at people like this then I think that that is showing signs of weakness upon yourselves.

As for the rapture taken from a Christian point of view, I believe no one but God himself will know the day or time. I believe that the time will be when people will least expect it.

Harold Camping may want to brush up on his scripture. 💡

Matthew 24:36

“But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

Harold Camping = Ultimate Fail

Yep. Couldn't agree more. 👍

Not really. It's ultimately his fault for being a loony. Speak loudly enough and people can't help but listen. Worked for fascist dictators and you can't really ignore people like that, can you?

Plus, I like to moan at stuff and quite like the shotgun idea. Without idiots like Harold Camping I'd have nothing to talk about.

At 13 years old, I hear this? Don't think its true, but I can't rule out the possibility.

Imagine I say that the world will end tommorow, you can't rule out the possibilty of that either, or of any day. One person (me) says it will end tommorow, camping says that it will end on the 21st. Which is more likely, neither.

And only one of you is sane.

I'm just gonna carry on as usual, and if massive cracks in the ground and earthquakes appear, then I'll believe.

 

[Dennisch]

Wouldn't it be awesome if all us non-believers would be taken away, and get a topside view of christians scared to death by the raised dead?

 

[Dan_]

Hopeless, what an attention whore.

I like the auto-trigger shotgun idea, though he would use some "I just believe it and there is no point in proving me against your lack of faith" blabbing to escape it. Meh.

 

[Villain]

Not Friday! That's pay day!

 

[Spacegoat]

Great, I can't wait to hear what he has to say for himself on the 22nd of October

I miscalculated, I will now be silent for 5 years and thinking of a new date for the rapture.

Impossible. He's 90 years old and recently had a stroke. He won't be here in 5 years rapture or not. Then (if you're a Christian) I guess he gets to find out what it means to God when you live the life of a false Prophet. I don't think misleading that many people would be something St. Peter would be fond of.

 

[Spacegoat]

I miscalculated, I will now throw darts at my calendar to work out a new date for the rapture.

Fixed for accuracy.

Didn't know that, but people get really old these days, so let's give him a chance.

Fixed for accuracy.

That's the fail!!!

The dude's Christian, but he's not smart enough to pick up a Bible!

 

[Pupik]

Pfft...tell 'em you'll pay it back on Monday.

 

[zanardi98]

The world is going to end tonight BUT we wont notice it because it will end very quietly! haha

 

[CSLACR]

What if he's not a Christian, but rather, making a fool of those stupid enough to believe him? 💡

Pfft, there is no escape from the shotgun. Metaphorically and physically - the former because it's a test of his own faith, the latter because he'd be tied to the chair

 

[PeterJB]

I wonder what the WBC have to say about this. Because by their definition we've got another 5 years or so left.

I always thought the dude was Christian.

He claims to be a Christian and get all of his information from the Bible.

Isnt the rapture the one you float into the air starkers naked. Cos its cold here and my peep does not like the cold
