A group of Christian activists led by Harold Camping claim that May 21 is the day of the Apocalypse.
Apparently, the apocalypse is near. There have been pamphlets, billboard signs and subway ads that says, “Judgment Day is coming.” These are the works of Christain activists who are not tied to any particular Church and their lone mission is to preach to everyone that the world will end on May 21, 2011.
The man behind the May 21 prophecy is Harold Camping, an 89-year-old radio host that has been at the prophecy game for years. In the early 90′s, he published a book entitled “1994?” wherein he claimed that Judgement day would come in September of that year. When confronted about the world not ending on Spetember 1994, he said that he was not discouraged and that he has to learn from his mistake of not considering the book of Jeremiah.
According to him, the world’s end on May 21 will be “starting in the Pacific Rim at around the 6 p.m. local time hour, in each time zone, there will be a great earthquake, such as has never been in the history of the Earth,” he said.
He also added that the true Christian believers will fly upward to heaven and as for the rest, “It’s just the horror of horror stories, and on top of all that, there’s no more salvation at that point. And then the Bible says it will be 153 days later that the entire universe and planet Earth will be destroyed forever.”
