Well it might be over for that old man. Wonder what he'll have to say after the 21st without money?

We can only hope more of them do the same. So they'll feel as stupid as they are on the 22nd.

Wow. Most people don't usually spend so much to announce to the
world that they've got serious psychological problems.

I'd love it if at least one of them would be so kind as to send some money my way. It would need to come with a signed contract stating that they won't attempt to retrieve any of it following the alleged end of the world.

Staggering stupidity. Religion is just a hoax, but truly an opiate for the masses, those without the courage to realize that there is no afterlife. This is nothing more than willful and deliberate ignorance. But will provide a good chuckle for all those riding the subway or bus after 5/21, until they are taken down.

I guess this woman will be looking for a new paint job for her car in a week http://www.postandcourier.com/news/2011/jan/09/raleigh-woman-says-shes-prepared-for-rapture-on/

I need to make sure I tune in. Camping believes that you were destined for salvation then that's it. Everything was decided before the universe came to be and you can't change that. That means putting up signs is stupid beyond the obvious. On one hand he says beg for forgiveness then says there's nothing to be done.

6 more days left on earth fellas.

 

[boomerang]

Is it too late for the bucket list?

 

[TheSlamma]

Just more people scared of the fact life will go on without them and they will be forgotten.

 

[Jeff7]

Yeah. It's a really compassionate and caring mentality that they have.

"If I die, I want the comfort of knowing that the entire world, and everyone on it, is going down with me."

And yet we typically don't classify this as a clinical psychological disorder.

 

[thecrecarc]

I am always curious to what happens to these people and the predictions after the date comes and passes without note. For example, the russian professor what predicted the USA would collapse in 2010

 

[YoungGun21]

Idiots. All of them. The world will end in December of 2012.

Everyone knows this.

 

[zinfamous]

I will actually be roasting ~20-30 lbs of pork Friday evening and serving it on Saturday for our local, uh, science meeting.

I figure, with 98% of the world's human-created gods accepting animal sacrifices for appeasement, I should have most of my bases covered.

What if they're wrong? (as they have been before)

I'd say we just ignore them, but they seem to want to live literally by what the Bible says.... So let's see....

20 But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, is to be put to death.”

21 You may say to yourselves, “How can we know when a message has not been spoken by the LORD?” 22 If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the LORD does not take place or come true, that is a message the LORD has not spoken...

Oh dear...
seems a bit harsh.

Five days left. Better make arrangements! Rapture insurance is now available for your pets!

Old Testament. The Old Testament doesn't count anymore.
(Unless it's something useful for an immediate need, then its use is entirely justified.)

I think I might go pick up some instant tortilla mix and seal it in mylar bags, and maybe some more 22 long rifle ammunition.

Even if nothing happens, I cam always use more ammo and food.

 

[DisgruntledVirus]

The local morning show called a guy in California who believes this. Was a hilarious interview. The host asked if he had documents drawn up today would the guy agree to sign over all assets he has beyond what he needs for the next week, and the guy just responds with "well it won't matter because after Saturday money is irrelevant." One of the cohosts asked how did Noah get all the animals on the boat since we are discovering new species every day, and the guy responded by saying that Noah just had 1 pair of each general animal. For example, 1 male and 1 female dog. He said that all species today are derived from those on the Ark, but it's not evolution. They also asked him why we have no evidence of a global flood. His response? "Well they have found elephant remains in Canada, and seashells in Arizona." Congrats, you have now discovered plate techtonics!

Nothing is going to happen

 

[Kev]

I simply cannot fathom people that actually believe this.

 

[Texashiker]

Nothing is going to happen

Any excuse to buy more food, lithium batteries, other disaster supplies,,,,,,, is a good excuse.

If I do not use them in the next couple of weeks, hurricane season is right around the corner.

 

[GuitarDaddy]

It's the end of the world as we know it.
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine

4 days left, what will you do if left behind?

"Good, then please sign this document."
The refusal to do such a thing is just the result of the last surviving remnants of reason trying to cough up some influence in the back of their minds.

One of the cohosts asked how did Noah get all the animals on the boat since we are discovering new species every day, and the guy responded by saying that Noah just had 1 pair of each general animal. For example, 1 male and 1 female dog. He said that all species today are derived from those on the Ark, but it's not evolution.

Delightful.
Even so, there are still a lot of different species, and if the hardcore Creationists still say that one species cannot become another, well...there's still not going to be enough space on the Ark for all of them.
If the premise of "1 male and 1 female dog" and "general animal" is good enough, then they'd have to accept evolution.
But when that starts to happen, the few remaining neurons of reason get Tased by the neurons of blind faith and pride.

They also asked him why we have no evidence of a global flood. His response? "Well they have found elephant remains in Canada, and seashells in Arizona." Congrats, you have now discovered plate techtonics!

Plate tectonics is a myth, perpetuated by Satan, to sway us from God! :awe:
