May 21, 2011: Harold Camping’s followers say doomsday is near - Under God - The Washington Post
The Washington Post reports: "By now you may have heard: Family Radio evangelist Harold Camping says Judgment Day in May 21, 2011 — that’s three days, people! Camping has been denounced by Christian leaders left and right --not necessarily for asserting that the end of the world is nigh, but for putting a date on it."

Comment: This is a sad example of date-setting by someone who already failed the Biblical test for being a true prophet of God. Still, there is a bright spot - how often do you see the Gospel quoted in a major national newspaper? I'm still making plans for the weekend, how about you?

So you don't think there is anything to it?

No, I think Camping is a false prophet. Jesus said that no man knows the day or the hour, so I don't pay any attention to date-setters.
