Hey, have you ever been curious as to when the world will end, but don’t have time to do all the math, crazy voodoo, and speculating? Have you ever wondered if there was someone who took the time to figure things out that weren’t of this earth? Are you going to hold that blunt forever, or will you pass it?
Thankfully, there is a man who has taken the time and the energy to put in the crazy, so you don’t have to. It’s people like that in the world that I am the most thankful for. People who will figure things for you that you didn’t even think were possible. Or necessary. His name is Harold Camping, and though his name sounds like an activity you do before you are molested, he claims that the date of the Apocalypse is written clearly on the wall. And it ain’t 2012. In fact, during his interview with the San Francisco Chronicle, he let out a hearty chuckle when that was suggested.
The world will end on May 21, 2011. We will be raptured right before summer vacation.
How did he arrive at that conclusion? He basically added a bunch of numbers together, all John Nash style. Only he’s not a brilliant professor, Harold’s an evangelical radio host. Broadcasting in 48 different countries. So he may have the code to the end of the world, but you’re less likely to believe him than say, if he were Jesus. But if Jesus told me the world was going to end on a certain date, I’d still be skeptical.
So get your maps, bomb shelters, and heat-seeking underwear. We’re going to be in for a bumpy ride. If you see me wandering the desert, know that I will kill you for fuel.
