Do people take this guy seriously in the US?

He should be taken seriously, I think we should be concerned!!!

I think that we should be so concerned that we should open up a special institutions for people like this!!!

I know there are a fair number of people who are taking him seriously.  I've seen several news reports of "followers" who have planned to exhaust all their savings by midnight tonight since they won't need money after that any longer.  Kinda sad, really.

Sales opportunity!  Rapture tshirts.  You wouldn't need to offer any returns policy.

When I asked my Bride if she wanted do anything special on the eve of destruction.... she said "we should maybe have a nice cake".
I don't think she's too concerned ?

Maybe Randy Savage knows something we don't.

I hope the bastard get his nuts ruptured over this deal. Those who believe him should have a full frontal lobe lobotomy if they continue to believe anything this ass clown has to say.

Man I have to get some beer. This should be fun to watch. Anybody know the official time this thing is supposed to kick off?......lol


I believe the posted time for the apocalypse is sundown (in your respective time zone) "around" 6 P.M.

I thought it was hilarious when someone called the preacher (Camping) who predicted this and asked if their office was going to be open on Monday and the receptionist said "of course" and most of the workers plan on coming in Monday

Oh and for you believers, Camping will gladly accept your donation even by check which obviously won't arrive by tomorrow night.

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.

It's past 6pm in OZ & NZ, no reports of wailing and gnashing of teeth, (though you should have heard them during the Ashes series  :)  ).

If anyone really cares, the true date of the end of the world is January 19, 2038.

hopefully in 27 years most of the 32bit UNIX stuff will be gone and we will somehow survive . . .
Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!
