Take 3... Rev. Camping is predicting that the World will end today. He said it would end in 1994, then again last May. Now it's supposed to end today. However; if the world doesn't end today, there's still hope - the Mayans said it will end on December 21, 2012. That's only a year away! |

Actually, IIRC, it's Camping's FOURTH "Doomsday Prediction." Guy just doesn't know when to quit. |

I think its more like "hell quit when he dies" I think that'll come before the end of the world. Unless he is immortal. |

We've known for years that Camping is nuts. Why are networks still giving him airtime and journalists reporting on it? I've got some mentally deficient people in my town that want their 15 minutes. |

Societies of the World, gathered as a whole, can probably convince itself that the World will come to an end on some particular day. People who believe it will tend to work to make sure it happens. Therefore it would be best to kill everybody before they make this prophecy come true. |

I guess this means Camping is here in hell with all of us? (or maybe "god" took only a small part of Camping's brain into the afterlife since he OBVIOUSLY wasn't using the part he's left with!) |

Any prediction, assuming it's possible within the physical framework of this universe, will eventually come true. The key word is eventually. Today? Next week? 3.7 billion years from now? |

So... this is the afterlife, eh? I must've slept through the Apocalypse. Not much different than life from what I can tell so far. I still have my bikes and my cat... what else do I need? |

The Rapture was several years ago. So few were Worthy to be called directly, no one noticed. I could be wrong about that.... I'm sure the good reverend with the calculator is. |

Quote>>> "the Mayans said it will end on December 21, 2012. That's only a year away!" IMO, that will never happen. Here is my theory on the Mayan calender... The wisest elder Mayan worked on the calender the day came he got as far as 12-21-2012 before he got a chance to continue on the calender he died. The rest of the Mayans did not know how to continue so the let it go figuring why should we work on it when he has it set for thousands of year which we will never see!!! 12/21/2012 will be just another day that will come and go just like 6-6-06, 7-7-07, Y2K, and so on. If the end of the worlds is coming. What are you going to do about it? NOTHING!!! When it is your time to go you have no decision on the mater. Deal with it and live each day like it is your last. |

I read an interview with a Mayan elder. His observation: "Your calendar ends every December 31, yet no one makes a big deal about that..." |

I always figured that one of three scenarios apply on the Mayan calender. 1. Budget issues. Stone carving costs money. It hit a certain point, and funding was cut. 2. Some Priest declared it good enough and put them to work on a project he liked better. 3. Some Priest deliberately stopped the calender, just to mess with future generations. I like #3 best. I know some archaeologists, and am a history buff, I know that certain places have been seeded, sometimes unwittingly, sometimes with humor. Roman coins in the Charles River, camp middens with darn authentic Greek relics... Clovis point flint arrowheads embedded in trees... Tomorrow's archaeologists are going to hate us. While I haven't read the bits of the Bible that cover this for a while, Isn't the math bozo predicting the rapture? The world doesn't end with the rapture. It takes a really long time and much war before the end times, IIRC. |
