Remember the Y2K scare? Did you go out and buy up all the bottles of water and candles your money could afford because the world was going to end? Well we are still here and I'm starting to think some of the religious fanatics forgot to take their meds. According to some, the world is projected to begin its destruction in T minus 4 days aka May 21st, 2011 but I thought there were also predictions of the end coming in 2012. I'm confused o-0.
The 2011 end times prediction is a prediction made by Christian radio host Harold Camping that the Rapture (in Christian belief, the taking up into heaven of God's elect people) will take place on May 21, 2011[1][2] and that the end of the world as we know it will take place five months later on October 21, 2011.[3]Family Radio Christian network, who claims the Bible as his source and says May 21 will be the date of the Rapture and the day of judgment "beyond the shadow of a doubt".[4] His followers claim that around 200 million people (approximately 3% of the world's population) will be raptured.[5]
A New York man spent his entire $140,000 life savings advertising his prediction that the world will end May 21, the New York Post reported Friday.
Robert Fitzpatrick, a 60-year-old Staten Island resident, said he spent at least that sum on 1,000 subway-car placards and ads on bus kiosks and subway cars.
They say, "Global Earthquake: The Greatest Ever! Judgment Day May 21, 2011."
In a self-published book, "The Doomsday Code," Fitzpatrick said the Bible offers "proof that cannot be dismissed."
So good people with that said if you believe that world will end on this coming Saturday, May 21st, what do you have planned for the remainder of the week? Are you kick starting your bucket list into high gear?
