Judgment Day - May 21st, 2011 at Participating Universes

[Milkster]

Doesn't this go against what the bible says? I don't know the exact verse but Man know not the day, nor hour, nor minute when the Lord shall return?

When have they ever let logic or anything counter productive to their thought process slow them down? You can find ANYTHING in the bible if youre looking for something.

At least it's a Saturday... I guess I'll start drinking early, so I can go out drunk as hell.

Ah uncle William, he was only a couple hundred years off. Glad to see someone is still carrying the Apocalyptic torch in his absence

[Tyr]

SHIT, this is one day before my graduation and two days before my birthday =/

reinterpret, delay it to may 24 or something...

Hide ya kids, hide ya wife, and hide yo husbands too 'cause he's comin in and snatchin everybody.

Except sinners.

I've been having a blast with this. If your in the bay area driving on 880N to oakland, just past the coliseum there's a billboard advertising essentially judgement day radio and that the bible guarantee's that 5-21-11 is Judgement day. I'm halfway tempted to call in and ask for a refund at 6:01pm PST when it passes.

feel bad for the kid of the family that's not planning for the future at all.

I think dude is white.

[Isiolia]

The guy misread it. The world will end on 5/21 only if PSN isn't back up yet.

[Fhloston]

Oh religion.

I've been reading about this jackleg for quite some time. If there's one thing in the world that worries me, is doomsday prophecies. IDK why the get to me but they just do. So yea i've been reading about this and his methods to how he found this is absurd. pulls random numbers and ties them to meanings. 5 = atonement 10 = completeness and 17 = heaven so he figured (5x10x17)^2+51+(1978x365.2422) = 7001 -1 since there is no year zero is how he found his formula.

this is a revision from his 1994 prophecy.

i wish i could find the article i found where he took out a construction contract to put up more sites, starting in august of this year. why would he need that if the world is coming to the end in may?

my only remorse is for the children of these followers, and for the people who will inevitably lose some loved ones when they believe they werent saved and jump off their house like what happened in 1994

[Mizango]

Yeah. Similar things happened when the LHC went live. Specifically one chick in India iirc, swallowed pesticide and died because she was afraid of being killed by the inevitable black hole that would result in it going live.

In one sense, its sad but on the other hand its probably for the best in most cases.

[Synbios]

I wonder if he used a scientific calculator to figure this out.

In before making Heaven's Gate duders look like pussies.

[bigrougabagel]

Would be nice if these people could ruin their own lives before procreating. Alas, they won't. Que obligatory idocracy clip.

[miokomioko]

These fucking billboards have been up all over town for months now. I'm just looking forward to the 21st just so they'll go away.

Of course, they used fucking Papyrus.

[jinkazama]

The LHC scares me more than this dude does!

[Demosthenes11]

they are on the bart here in SF too. They have a big seal-looking that on it that says "The bible guarantees it!" that looks a lot like the award seals that used to be on children's books.

May 22 is gonna be fuckin AWKWARD for these people...

[miokomioko]

Oh yeah, I love that guarantee they added to them recently.

So does that mean, when the rapture doesn't happen in 10 days from now, the Bible can officially be wrong? (at least to these idiots)

Unfortunately, no...for some damned reason, failed prophecies only strengthen conviction in future, similar prophecies (case in point: CSA militants in the 80s that continued/increased devotion to the cause despite failed prophetic statements).

Nope, they already have an excuse thought up and will carry on in ignorant bliss. Its been wrong thousands of times before, and yet people still put faith in it lol. Do you remember the whole "The bible foretold of Obama's rise to power" and that he is the "antichrist that is the be all, that ends all"? Somehow its still the most read book, atleast over here. idgi.

Didnt see this, but said far better than I ever could.
