You might not have noticed, but the world has ended. Harold Camping, the Oakland-based soothsayer who predicted that the world would end in 1994 and in May of 2011 once again foresaw that today would be judgement day. Now, I know what you’re thinking, “But wait, I just bought some Mountain Dew at Safeway and nothing was different. The world can’t have ended.” That’s what you think!

Harold Camping, the Family Radio evangelist who wrongly predicted doomsday back in May, thinks the real end of the world could be today.

In a message on his Web site, Camping declared that today, “at this point, looks like it will be the final end of everything.”

…

Camping also seems to have learned how to better hedge his bets this time “I really am beginning to think as I restudied these matters that there’s going to be no big display of any kind,” he said in an audio address after suffering a stroke in June. “The end is going to come very, very quietly.”

So there! The world totally ended. You were just too busy playing demonic video games and reading satanic books to notice.

Harold Camping, who predicted that the Rapture would commence last Saturday, has informed his bewildered followers that the actual date of final judgement is October 21st.

The October date was originally slated at the day Camping claimed Jesus would return to Earth after five months of tribulation in which our Earth would be consumed in global earthquakes. As for the May date, Camping said the following on his radio network Monday night:

…God is “loving and merciful,” and had decided not to punish the humanity with five months of destruction.

But he maintains that the end of the world is still coming.

“We’ve always said October 21 was the day,” Camping said during his show. “The only thing we didn’t understand was the spirituality of May 21. We’re seeing this as a spiritual thing happening rather than a physical thing happening. The timing, the structure, the proofs, none of that has changed at all.”

What will not happen again is the nationwide advertising push spearheaded by Campings’ Family Radio network. Camping maintains the world has been warned.
