Today is May 21st. Today is Judgement Day. Today is the day that is marked as the second coming of Jesus Christ... or so said Harold Camping.

Harold Camping, an 89 year old Christian radio show host, has been relentlessly spreading the word that he found the day everything would start. He sticks to what he believes. The man has a mathematical formula, which doesn't make sense at all, that he gathered from events in the Bible.

Now I would dismiss this as one of those conspiracy theories, but this was on a huge scale. People began to quit their jobs, sell everything the owned, use their life-savings to spread the word, etc. It's really... sad. I really do feel sorry for these people. It what makes it even worse, is that he predicted it to happen in 1994 as well.

If you know me, I'm Christian. Albeit being very new to the religion, I still do my research. If anyone would just read the Bible, there is a verse in the Bible that actually says "no man, no angel, nor the his son" will know, but only God himself (See Matthew 24:36, and I do believe it is stated somewhere in Luke as well but I could be wrong). The way I see it, it will be at any given moment in time. Not just on a Saturday at 6 PM in every timezone on Earth. Harold Camping said that everything won't be business as usual. In my eyes, everything will always be business as usual... until that certain time.

Here are the things I am fearing as an aftermath of this:
A lot of people will be out of a job, parents have used their children's life savings for their mission to spread the word, people have sold their homes, and they will more than likely lose their faith.

These people are now prone to suicide. Most have lost everything. They have all been deceived.

This is not funny. I won't lie though I have joked about the prediction, but not at the people. I won't even make fun of Harold Camping, because he is just another human searching for his entrance into Heaven.

I sincerely feel sorry for these people. It's not in my nature to see anyone fall and then chastise them for their false belief. I hope nobody else here does anything wrong to the people that actually believed that the date was real. I also feel sorry for Harold Camping because of what the backlash from his followers will bring.

"But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left. Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left. Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect." (Matthew 24:36-44 NKJV)
