May 21, 2011

Get ready world, Judgment Day is approaching. On May 21, 2011, the world as we know it will come to an end, or so say Family Radio Worldwide and its followers who have embarked on Project Caravan to tell everyone the good news about The Rapture. Yes, they say it's good news, "awesome news," in fact, and they've taken to RVs to roam the country and spread it. 
Actually the world won't END on that day, but those who are "saved" will be taken up to heaven -- that's the awesome part ... for them at least. The sinners will be subjected to 153 days of death and horror before the world actually ends October 21. The dates were determined by none other than Family Radio's Harold Camping and his creative mathematical formula.

    It was supposed to happen on my birthday one year! I think it was when I turned six. They published a book about it and everything.

    I am not worried, actually it is supposed to end on my birthday next year, 12/21/12.

    I don't think any woman who is pregnant with a baby due in May or has a newborn baby could possibly accept the fact that her baby will not even be able to be born or since the child hasn't been "saved" yet will be left behind on earth to suffer "153 days of death and horror."

    Have you ever ventured throughout the rest of the Bump? Yep - I'll throw my ten bucks into that hat as well.

    My mom and I saw a guy waving one of those signs around on the street corner by a Walmart a couple weeks ago. I've got my unborn baby's baptism scheduled already, so I think God will be cool with that.

    I don't believe the link you posted or anything, but unless whatever "Christian organization" is posting that believes things totally different from any other, normal Christian (which obviously, they do to some extent) a newborn/unborn baby hasn't yet reached an age where he or she is old enough to know right from wrong yet and need to get saved.  They would just go to heaven.  *shrug* 

    But I didn't click the link so I don't know if the crazies believe something different.
