You’d think that after a few wrong predictions he’s learn that he’s not privy to information that even Jesus flatly stated he didn’t know while on earth.

An old webpage about past doomsday predictions said that Camping predicted the end for 9/6/94, with the second coming on 9/27. Then he predicted it for: 9/29/94, 10/2/94, and 3/31/95. He gave up setting dates afterwards. Again, an OLD web page. He did set dates afterwards...

Maybe he meant the end of some world in some parallel universe? Dang, 94 — I was too young to make money off the fools, ooops, I mean help these happy to-be-raptured souls...

I hope this ass dies slowly. All I need is 100 grand and I could really do wonders with my house and get it the way I want (including a septic system that actually works). Meanwhile jerk offs like this waste millions.

Well heck, even a stopped clock will get it right sooner or later...

And I bought a new $ 500,000.00 home & shiny new corvette!
I've got a big new house and new car for sale if anyone is interested.
Now I have to listen to my wife go on and on and on!
Pls Help!

I heard on the radio this morning that Camping announced his math was slightly off, and that the end will NOW occur on OCTOBER 21.

Not sure if its true or not, but I heard some even had pets put to sleep. If they are gullible enough to sale their homes and give away the money, I could believe they would do a ghastly act like that as well.

Things are as bad as they seem. All he needs to do is get a bunch of black markers and change the date on the billboards and such to the new updated doomsday of Oct. 21.
Woohoo, that gives us another 5 months to max out our credit cards! Party hardy, yeehaw!

hey — I resent that remark. These are good folks who just need to give away all their money and worldly goods. I’ll cut you in for 43% if you help market these “friendly rapture-care” services :-P

It is not all that humorous to people that fell for this charlatan’s message and spent their life's fortune.
