It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.

Not to be a wet blanket, but I saw some stories where a father believed in this but the wife and kids did not. He claimed to be convinced it was going to happen. I must admit to having some slight bit of concern for people in those situations. If the end doesn't come, I hope none of these believers decide to end it themselves and possibly harm their family members in the process. I don't think I'd be comfortable staying in the house if my father was sure the end was coming the next day.

EDIT:

I happened to see one of those vans advertising this nonsense out on the highway here, just northeast of Philadelphia, some months ago. Apparently they are going to be back in a town near me tomorrow.

I saw a airplane with a banner behind it on the way home from work this afternoon advertising these fruitcakes.

All this kind of makes me wish we could charge him with fraud once the appointed time of the end comes and goes without incident.

NYPD has an awesome response to the End of the World.

Camping is following the Bible about as much as the current Chinese Communist Party is following the Communist Manifesto. Let's see what Jesus has to say on this issue:
Matthew 24:36
36 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son,[f] but only the Father.

Relax everyone! A Norwegian numerologist has announced that Camper's calculations are wrong, so relax apocalypse is cancelled.

EDIT: Also the end of the world is to happen precisely at 6PM in each timezone.

Apparently Camping is ignoring the fact that time zones are not straight and perfect but often adjusted so countries or states can all have the same time//

I think Camping is ignoring quite a bit more than that...

Camping, though, believes God will simply destroy unsaved souls, not send them to Hell.

I was able to actively mock one of these nuts using Bible verses from memory today on my way home from School

He couldn't even find Acts without me helping him, and got very big eyes when I told him to have a good weekend with the rest of us here on Earth.

The second one got even bigger eyes from the Indigo Tribe Oath.

Europe is still here, but I'm assuming it's too early for Americans to be rapture yet so I don't expect Jebus coming back in the next 12 hours or so.

Well, so far, the world hasn't collapsed into a screaming mass of chaos and judgement, but the day is still young :D
My only wish is that Doctor Who isn't interrupted by the impending armageddon, that would really spur me to complain to the BBC. As well as God.

Yay, probably shallow of me, but when I heard 6 pm for the start of the earthquakes, etc. my first thought was "oh, good - I can probably get a last episode of Doctor Who in before the end..."
