Doomsday Minister Harold Camping Dead at 92

Not sure where to post this one, since he made predictions i figured i would put it here. I did do a search and did not find anything,.

Minister Harold Camping Dead at 92


Harold Camping, the California preacher who used his evangelical radio ministry and thousands of billboards to broadcast the end of the world and then gave up public prophecy when his date-specific doomsdays did not come to pass, has died at age 92.

He and his heirs made lots of money on that doomsday fakery. Too bad he died though, it would have been nice having him rant a few more times.

What would you say if I told you that he might not have been entirely wrong?

Well I of course would ask you to elaborate. Although having to ask is ridiculous. Why not just continue with your thoughts?

The doom porn industry lost an icon. The religious world lost another false prophet.

next?

He was a funny nut.

RIP.

Camping wrote about 30 books and booklets over the years, many from his modest brick home in Alameda, a leafy Oakland suburb. Family Radio Network said in its statement that he is survived by a wife of 71 years.

Does that mean he was married for 71 years or his wife is 71 years old? If he was married for 71 years that's impressive! Although I wonder if that's why he kept looking for the end of the world.

i would say, " no kool-aid for me, Thanks!"

Obviously the world did not end, the May 2012 was not his first or last wrong prediction.

Tsk, tsk. Didn't you learn anything from Obi-Wan Kenobi? "Luke, you're going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view."

Change that avatar right now mister.

haha no I'm not going to say that. I'm going to say that coincidentally on the day he picked for the 'rapture', a wounded pilgrim in the desert walked in the spirit world and renewed time and space.

We are now better off without him!

And out of couriousity, who is his replacement?

I need to know the next Doom Date!!!!!!!!!! To save my soul

I think they should tie a boatload of helium balloons to his body, and pseudo Rapture him for his followers.

Might make for some entertainment for all the people he's scammed money out of with his fakery.

Please, who was this pilgrim?

Where was this desert located? What was the pilgrim's name? Was there a particular religion the pilgrim adhered to? What was the wound?

Please don't be cryptic!

All and none... the love religion.

What was the wound?

A torn ligament in the ankle.

I made a thread about it here.

I guess HIS world ended. So maybe he was partially right.

He should've been an ATS member. He would've fit right in. Made many date specific predictions which never came to fruition.

It means he was married for 71 years. If I'm married for 71 years, I'd be looking for the end of the world too. Hell, if I'm still married for half that, I'll be hoping for the end of the world.

If anyone actually bothered to read the bible its says only god know when the end will come.

So a crazy old American is hardly going to be told right?

Anyway least in deaf he cant expoit the ignorant and stupid anyway.
