The End of the World Is Nigh!
I thought it was some time since the usual American Christian nutter said this, but the latest one has just been announced.
The guy behind it all has the name of Harold Camping. So does that mean he’s a bit like John Inman ‘s character in Are You Being Served?
I suspect it’s just another plot by a religious nutter to relieve the stupid of their money.
Wikipedia says this on its entry for Harold Camping.
He has used Bible-based numerology to predict dates for the end of the world. His current end times prediction is that the Rapture will be on May 21, 2011 and that God will completely destroy the Earth and the universe five months later on October 21. He had previously predicted that the Rapture would occur in September 1994.
So he got it wrong once! Well we might think that, but how much money did he make the first time? Perhaps he made a lot, so it is now time to fleece another few thousand victims with this outrageous fraud.

I agree, B.S. It is probably based on the idea that the world is 5,777 years old, which despite my Christian faith I dont accept.
