May 21, 2011: Only 5 more shopping days ’til the Rapture
Read Time:1 Minute, 58 Second
The whole end of the world nonsense holds that there is a Resurrection-Rapture of living believers in good ole’ Jesus Christ at the end of the age (or the “End time”). Post-tribulationists believe that Christians will remain on the Earth through the three and a half year great tribulation period. This period starts at the Abomination of Desolation and ends at the Battle of Armageddon. They will be gathered by the angels to meet Christ in the air (raptured) at Christ’s second coming immediately after the great tribulation just before the battle of Armageddon and then return with Him as Christ descends to the Earth, to usher in the Millennium (World to Come) on earth. Wow! Now that’s some serious shit.
Let’s face it there are some very crazy people in the world, and most of them are religious nuts, such as the poor guy who should have spent more time reading Ayn Rand, and less time reading the Silly Book. Now here is a poor, literally, ignoramus who is going to wake up on May 22d, with the biggest hangover ever, once he realizes that Jesus was a no show.
Here is yet another crazy Judgment day story and remember there are only 5 more shopping days ’til the Rapture:
A retired public transportation worker in New York City is sure the world will end on May 21st—and he wants everyone to know it. He’s put his life savings—$140,000—into an ad campaign across city transit announcing doomsday. “I’m trying to warn people about what’s coming,” says 60-year-old Robert Fitzpatrick. “People who have an understanding” of the matter “have an obligation to warn everyone.”
To that end, his poster warns: “Global Earthquake! The Greatest Ever—Judgment Day: May 21.” More than a thousand others like it adorn subway cars and bus shelters. Fitzpatrick picked up the information listening to Harold Camping on Family Radio. “It’ll start just before midnight, Jerusalem time: It’ll be instantaneous and global,” he says. But others aren’t so sure. “”My sister doesn’t believe it,” he says. “I’ve tried to tell her. But that’s pretty much the story with most people.”
Do you think the Rapture is right around the corner? Are you prepared to meet your maker or the other guy? Let us know in the comments section.

I can’t belive it becuase as for as I can see, god only knows…
dear viewers,im a muslim,nd in my view,only allah knows,when this world ll go to end,not dis harold camping,y he is posting such rumours?and
what is the benefit he ll get from this?no man in the world knows,wen allah ll destory dis world?
I’m well stocked up on vodka and the wifey has promised me a good night of passion on the 21st….so I couldn’t give a shit…;-)
I could almost feel sorry for this guy knowing he will be broke as hell afterwards but I can’t, knowing that he truly believes he will be taken up into the sky, like a blow up doll filled with helium would be. Sad, so sad that con men like Camping, the very next day, will say something stupid like, oh my dates were off it will be x date so sorry. Wonder how this will all work with the end of the world coming in October, he should have saved his money till that one for a bigger bang for his buck if you will. Damn but am I glad I don’t follow this bullshit on a regular basis.
Not to miss out on the rapture I am going to a rapture watch convention in Oakland, thrown by a group of atheists and the following day a bbq for a post rapture looting strategy to help the unfortunates that will be left behind. Well that and mocking my neighbors, with signs in the yard, the next day, it’s a win win for me anyway.
California has such neat things Jess. If I were there I guarantee I would be attending. By the way, there are only 5 more shopping days until the rapture 🙂
The post rapture bbq are some friends of mine organizing it, one of them will be going with me the night of the rapture to place piles of clothing at a couple of righty churches having services. When people come out after the services, if they haven’t been raptured up of course, we have decided to stand screaming about we saw them all, taken up into the sky and all that is left are these piles of clothes. It should be fun for the whole family.
to funny jess some1 should record the event 4 those of us not able to attend!
Of course I think what he’s done requires some serious psychiatric support, I have to defend his right ot do it. After all what if his investment turns out to be sound. LOL
Well, I have to say I admire the guy’s conviction. He’s really put himself out there with this, and put his money where his mouth is. I mean, he may be a loon, but you’ve got to admit–he’s a loon with conviction.
I can’t help but feel mentally and intellectually superior to someone like that. Sad, sad, delusional guy. Good luck rebuilding your life now that you’re a Pauper.
What is wrong with these people?
