Reminded me of the people in my area that still take Harold Camping seriously.
(Harold Camping tried to predict Christ's return, said it was supposed to be in 1989 I think.. Well.. he was wrong.)
He recently was advertising as going to have a seminar where he was going to 'prove' that we're in the middle of the tribulation.
Which he would have to square with his earlier predictions and statements.
How can you listen to him without pulling out your hair and screaming in frustration?
Since Harold Camping is still stinking up the airwaves, maybe we are in the middle of the tribulation. Hehehe!
Actually, it was 1994. My boyfriend (now husband) had a copy of the book. I got a migrane just trying to read it. Lots of numerology/kabbalah type garbage. Kind of like Algore really. Basically you throw in so much mind-numbing pyschobabble, out-of-context scripture and wierd numerical calculations. This way if you are proven wrong, you can simply claim that your audience misunderstood or misinterpreted your real position.
I can't believe the nut case still has an audience.
