"Heaven Don't Want Me (And Hells Afraid I'll Take Over)" - Jackyl

Perfect!! :tumbsup:

 

See you guys in heck. Unless all the holy people are goin to be sucked up. Then we will party at the biggest empty mansion stocked with cold beer that we can find (if that's possible ;) )

 

That would be fantastic! Although I hope there will be a big garden and play area for all the non-religious people's kids. Can't be leaving the little uns behind!

Looky here, folks... Old Weird Harold now sez he made a mistake and that the world is actually going to end in October. I guess he forgot to carry the "2."

 

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_apocalypse_saturday

 

OAKLAND, Calif. – A California preacher who foretold of the world's end only to see the appointed day pass with no extraordinarily cataclysmic event has revised his apocalyptic prophecy, saying he was off by five months and the Earth actually will be obliterated on Oct. 21.

 

Harold Camping, who predicted that 200 million Christians would be taken to heaven Saturday before catastrophe struck the planet, apologized Monday evening for not having the dates "worked out as accurately as I could have."

 

He spoke to the media at the Oakland headquarters of his Family Radio International, which spent millions of dollars_ some of it from donations made by followers — on more than 5,000 billboards and 20 RVs plastered with the Judgment Day message.

 

It was not the first time Camping was forced to explain when his prediction didn't come to pass. The 89-year-old retired civil engineer also prophesied the Apocalypse would come in 1994, but said later that didn't happen then because of a mathematical error.

 

Through chatting with a friend over what he acknowledged was a very difficult weekend, it dawned on him that instead of the biblical Rapture in which the faithful would be swept up to the heavens, May 21 had instead been a "spiritual" Judgment Day, which places the entire world under Christ's judgment, he said.

 

The globe will be completely destroyed in five months, he said, when the apocalypse comes. But because God's judgment and salvation were completed on Saturday, there's no point in continuing to warn people about it, so his network will now just play Christian music and programs until the final end on Oct. 21.

 

"We've always said May 21 was the day, but we didn't understand altogether the spiritual meaning," he said. "The fact is there is only one kind of people who will ascend into heaven ... if God has saved them they're going to be caught up."

 

Josh Ocasion, who works the teleprompter during Camping's live broadcasts in the group's threadbare studio sandwiched between an auto shop and a palm reader's business, said he enjoyed the production work but never fully believed the May 21 prophecy would come true.

 

"I thought he would show some more human decency in admitting he made a mistake," he said Monday. "We didn't really see that."

 

Follower Jeff Hopkins said he spent a good deal of his own retirement savings on gas money to power his car so people would see its ominous lighted sign showcasing Camping's May 21 warning. As the appointed day drew nearer, Hopkins started making the 100-mile round trip from Long Island to New York City twice a day, spending at least $15 on gas each trip.

 

"I've been mocked and scoffed and cursed at and I've been through a lot with this lighted sign on top of my car," said Hopkins, 52, a former television producer who lives in Great River, NY. "I was doing what I've been instructed to do through the Bible, but now I've been stymied. It's like getting slapped in the face."

 

Camping's hands shook slightly as he pinned his microphone to his lapel, and as he clutched a worn Bible he spoke in a quivery monotone about some listeners' earthly concerns after giving away possessions in expectation of the Rapture.

 

Family Radio would never tell anyone what they should do with their belongings, and those who had fewer would cope, Camping said.

 

"We're not in the business of financial advice," he said. "We're in the business of telling people there's someone who you can maybe talk to, maybe pray to, and that's God."

 

But he also said that he wouldn't give away all his possessions ahead of Oct 21.

 

"I still have to live in a house, I still have to drive a car," he said. "What would be the value of that? If it is Judgment Day why would I give it away?"

 

Apocalyptic thinking has always been part of American religious life and popular culture. Teachings about the end of the world vary dramatically — even within faith traditions — about how they will occur.

 

Still, the overwhelming majority of Christians reject the idea that the exact date or time of Jesus' return can be predicted.

 

Tim LaHaye, co-author of the best-selling "Left Behind" novels about the end times, recently called Camping's prediction "not only bizarre but 100 percent wrong!" He cited the Bible verse Matthew 24:36, "but about that day or hour no one knows" except God.

 

Camping offered no clues about Family Radio's finances Monday, saying he could not estimate how much had been spent advertising his prediction nor how much money the nonprofit had taken in as a result. In 2009, the nonprofit reported in IRS filings that it received $18.3 million in donations, and had assets of more than $104 million, including $34 million in stocks or other publicly traded securities.

 

I wonder if any of the suckers who quit their jobs, sold their houses, etc. to follow this wack-a-doo are going to fall for his line of bullsh*t again? :blink:

And on a side note, has anyone else noticed how much Harold Camping looks like Jeff Dunham's ventriloquist puppet "Walter?"

Yup, the "Big Day" is in October now. Mark your calendars, folks. Harold messed up in 1994 and in May of 2011, but the third time's the charm, right? :blink:

The thing that would piss me off is that guy and his family still have their millions, probably even more money after this whole farce, yet many of his followers gave away everything. I think I'd be demanding my money back straight from that thief. No matter who claims to know when the end of the world will be I will always consider them wrong. Except maybe that Mayan calendar thing. Maybe. :inq:

Honestly mate, if anyone put their money into this, I can't feel an ounce of sorrow for them. :lol:

 

Sure, it sounds like someone needs to slice this Camping dickhead's throat, but if he meets people stupid enough to subscribe to his nonsense, that's no one's fault but their own. It's not illegal to be braindead.

 

My face hurts from reading how moronic this guy and his followers are. My poor eyes. :(

Shit, if I'd known that I'd have extended my vacation to the 22nd so that at least I was happy when we all died on the 21st of October because these guys are so smart and awesome.

Bumpin' an oldie to mention that Harold Camping, the radio/TV preacher who started all of this "rapture" nonsense, died this past week. Couldn't have happened to a more deserving fella. :flame:

    • I'm sure you remember as I do the "Black and White Minstrel Show". These days it's incredible to think that this was considered wholesome family viewing at the time.  There's absolutely no way something like this would fly today.
