We have no doubt that the world will end – eventually. We do however, have our doubts about tomorrow being that specific day, simply because so many prophets have made the same failed predictions for hundreds of years.
Camping, who has made a living from his California based Family Radio Christian network since 1958 and has assetstotalingin excess of 25 million, has been preaching since 2008 that the end of days would occur on exactly this day, at exactly this hour. While the exact number of his followers is not known, Camping&8217;s success shows that they number in the tens of thousands world-wide.
Many of them believe tomorrow is it. It&8217;s the beginning of the end. According to Camping&8217;s interpretation of biblical prophecy, May 21 will begin with cataclysmic natural events at 6:00 PM around New Zealand and progress around the world every hour. That means at 6:00 PM tomorrow, no matter where you are in the world, you can expect earthquakes and other disasters. The rapture will kick off shortly thereafter with only a chosen few being taken to heaven. If you&8217;re still on earth after the rapture, you can expect Armageddon &8211; total destruction of everyone and everything on the planet. By October 21, 2011 it will all be over and the earth will reportedly be completely destroyed.
The Holy Bible, in Matthew 24:36, says, &8220;No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.&8221; Apparently, however, Brother Camping figured out the calculations necessary to determine when the end is nigh. According to Camping, the rapture begins exactly 7,000 years after Noah&8217;s flood, and that day happens to be May 21, 2011.

In preparation for May 21, some Americans have quit their jobs, settled their affairs, and arranged for their care of their earth-bound pets, for they believe this Saturday is the Rapture.
For those of us outside one particular extremist Christian circle, May 21st is expected to be just another Saturday. There are errands to be run and friends to see, sleep to catch up on and bills to be tackled. (And for Washington D.C. residents so inclined, the first strategic summit of the Secular Coalition for America is being held.) But in preparation for May 21, some Americans have quit their jobs, settled their affairs, and arranged for their care of their earth-bound pets, for they believe this Saturday is the Rapture.
The Rapture refers to a passage in the New Testament, 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17, describing what is also referred to as End Times, when God calls all good Christians home to Heaven, leaving the non-believers to an Armageddon plagued planet.
This doomsday calculation has been most loudly touted by Harold Camping, founder of Family Radio Worldwide, who also predicted the Rapture to fall up on the earth in 1994. He was wrong then and he's wrong now, but followers continue to line up behind his word, preparing for the final countdown. Why?

The Lesson of May 21, 2011. My friend Mike the White sent me a link to this article about an ex subway worker who sinks 140000 life savings into a campaign advertising the end of the world. On May 22 this guy will wake up to the pile of.
My friend Mike the White sent me a link to this article about an ex subway worker who sinks 140,000 life savings into a campaign advertising the end of the world. On May 22 this guy will wake up to the pile of “May 21 Rapture” junk he bought, along with the realization that he destroyed his future. He won't be the only one. People have sold their houses, liquidated their funds and closed bank accounts to scrounge up the cash to buy stuff like this:I created the End of the World Fund back in the first week of April as a joke. I never expected to get any money from the May 21 nutters. One guy from California gave me a 10.00 donation that came with the following message:Sorry it's not more – I gotta save some in case it's 12/21/12. Cheers, Brother Bud, see you in … uh, see you!I appreciate the humor, and I want my friend from California to know that his generous gift will be used to continue this important ministry called Dead-Logic. Since I created the End of the World Fund, I noticed others have come up with a similar idea. A few days ago, Vjack over at Atheist Revolution gave the May 21 nutters a similar offer, explaining that he's “willing to take everything you own off your hands.” As an alternative, he suggested giving it all away to those who are truly needy. Likewise, YouTuber NonStampCollector posted a video yesterday encouraging the May 21 nutters to give their money to the poor.Certainly, if these silly people are going to rid themselves of all their money, I would hope they would give it to people who need it. But that's part of the joke/lesson of my End of the World Fund. If they give it to the needy, then that means they have some doubt. After the end of the world, no one is going to need that money. If they really, really believe the world is going to end on May 21, then they only need enough money to survive until at least May 20. So why not give it all away as an act of faith? Even better, why don't they give all their cash to a sarcastic skeptic? After all, after May 21, that cash will be worthless, and won't this skeptic feel dumb with all that cash when the Lord Jesus Christ returns. Of course, I don't expect them to give me any money. I wouldn't want it if they did. I would prefer that they spend and save their money wisely. Instead, they are busy spending their life savings on advertising. It's pointless to try to talk sense into them. It's useless to make any appeals to reason with them. They won't listen. The biggest lesson of May 21 will happen, naturally, on May 22, when they see that they're still here. No rapture. No return of Christ. No Day of Judgment. Just piles and piles of worthless May 21 junk. Will all that junk that they will undoubtedly toss in the trash teach them anything? Probably not.

Reverend Camping of Family Radio has revealed exactly what to expect on May 21 Judgement Day. At 6 p.m. local time, on May 21, 2011, where ever you live…
At 6 p.m. local time, on May 21, 2011, where ever you live, there will be a tremendous earthquake. This earthquake will be like no other. The earthquake alerts the world that The Rapture is starting. The earthquake will be so powerful that it will open the graves and the dead will rise up, and the saved dead will ascend up into heaven with the living that have been saved. Reverend Camping will be viewing the Judgement Day as it's happening live on TV and listening on the radio. Reverend Camping says it will start in Fiji and New Zealand, and you'll be able to view it as it's coming around to you, because this will be big news, of course. It's a little difficult to understand exactly how we're going to see it on TV, if the earthquakes will be as abundant as graphic as he states, since the TV stations will surely be out of operation, but we can take his word for it, if we wish.
If you're not saved in the Rapture, then you're going to be in a pickle. Only the “true believers” will be saved. About 7 billion people will be in a “tremendous, terrible situation.” Millions of people will die, and there will not even be enough people alive to bury them. The whole world will be in chaos, and suffering terribly, states Reverend Camping. The suffering will continue until October 21st, which Camping says God will completely destroy the Earth.
Reverend Camping believes this with all his heart and soul. He won't even entertain the possibility that it won't happen. If you've ever heard him speak, you know that he can be quite adamant about this. He was quoted in New York Magazine as saying, “It. Is. Going. To. Happen.” Case closed, no questions about it what-so-ever.
