Harold Camping Rapture Prediction: October 21 is the Day, Folks

I regret to inform you all that life as we know it will cease to exist this Friday, October 21st.That’s when the part time biblical numerologist and full time resident of batshitville Harold Camping has predicted as the end of days, the completion of God’s final judgment – the rapture.

Of course, if you remember correctly, this is the second date this year that Camping has pegged for the apocalypse. The original end of the world was supposed to have taken place on May 21st , but as you’re undoubtedly aware, that day came and went with no incident.

Shortly after his first prediction failed, Camping went into hiding for a couple of days. When he emerged, he had an explanation for why we were all still there. He said that May 21st was sort of a rapture soft opening, with some souls being taken to heaven and the rest of the world left to slog around in some post-apocalyptic hell-on-Earth for a few months. He said that it would no longer happen that way and set October 21st as the hard date for the end of times.

Now we are a couple of days away from that date and Camping has clarified what actually happened on May 21st.

Apparently that day started “God’s final judgment,” which is, from what I can tell, a period meant to scare the hell out of everyone. Camping says that nobody has been able to get saved since May 21st. Civilizations’ Apple Care protection plan ran out on that day and we’ve all been screwed for a few months now.

And now it’s all over on Friday with no big display, just the end.  No big display? Sounds like a let down. It’s so much cooler in movies.big display, just the end
