what do you think?

what would you do if this was your last week?

JayElleJayCee · May 2011

wth? It's hard to say. If I knew for sure this was true - I would quit my job take all of my money and get together with my family (who are all in Florida/Kansas) get a house on the beach and ride it out? Although it's pretty sad that I wouldn't get to see LO.

I don't like this post.. Crying

lol

I think these people need professional help and they need to find a job.

OMG...lets just go over how many times the world was supposed to end in the last 100+ years! (And thats just a start)

I choose not to pay attention to these whack jobs!

absoluteremix · May 2011

Well, I have a hair appointment on the 21st at 3:00. I hope he will be accomodating to my schedule.

Note: I am not a religious person.

Stick out tongue

They did a story about this on NPR. One of the families they interviewed the wife was pregnant and due in June. They had budgeted so that they would have nothing by May 21st. I can't imagine putting my family at risk like that. Personally I don't believe it. The "end of the world" or "the great tribulation" has been predicted and passed with no big event several times. Personally I'd like to hear the interviews with the same people on May 22nd after nothing happens. The same sort of thing happened with the Jehovah's Witnesses in 1975 & 1994.

I'm not sure what I would do if this was my last week. I'd be really disappointed that I didn't get to give birth and raise our little guy. I would probably take the week off and spend it with my husband. Personally I don't think I would want to know. I would prefer to just be here one moment then gone the next.

susieandmarty · May 2011

i see this all over the place - they are spending so much money to tel me the world is ending and it pisses me off, because LO is not due until after that date

edit: as a non-believer though, i guess i dont have to worry - because Dh and I would still be here after the 21st to meet our non-believing baby

taitai07 · May 2011

Honestly, this reminds of when people were analyzing the text of Harry Potter & the Half Blood Prince for hints about what were going to be the unknown horcruxes in the final book. But then, I don't believe that God would hide clues in the text of the Bible about when the end of the world was going to happen for funsies.

The picture of that woman with her car cracks me up! Have fun wasting your time, lady.

luvbeingmom · May 2011

well i think technically we would get to give birth to our lo's since it's just judgement day...

the actual end of the world isn't until 10/11/11 according to this...

so all those that are still around and believe in this on 05/22/11 will just believe that they were not saved and taking the downtown train on 10/11/11

When you say this it makes me wonder if we will hear about a mass suicide sometime in the next week...like that group who thought the world was ending and killed themselves to get to the spaceship behing a meteor or something (I was young and don't remeber all the details).

the heaven's gates peeps...

yeah, that kind of worries me, if there's a lot of weirdos out there who might harm themselves or others

As a Christian, I have to say that I think this is crazy. The Bible says in multiple places that we will not know the time or the place when Christ will return. I agree w/PPs that this is just another bunch of crazies.

Agreed! Openly Christian here, and anyone claiming this as 'truth' needs to go back and reread the books of Mathew, Mark and Revelation. I couldn't even read the rest of the comments, I was getting a headache!

Those people need to pack up their stuff quietly and not effect the rest of the world. Boo.

pammeelala · May 2011

As a believer, these whack jobs annoy the hell out of me. If they are oh so religious, shouldn't they know that the Bible says that no one knows when the end will be? Idiots

SarahinRichmond · May 2011

I saw four trailers with this End of Days stuff drive through the city on Monday when I left to go to lunch! Crazies.

I'm also a Christian and I think its nonsense. I mean really, anytime there's a lot going on the world people predict that its the end of days. And frankly I'm not going to believe one old whackjob's "math" over what's in the Bible. Thanks but no thanks.

It will be interesting to see their response on May 22nd though!

cvl105 · May 2011

All I can think about is how sad it would be that I would never get to meet my baby I've carried for 9 months!

niende89 · May 2011

I'm a Christian and I think these people are being a bit egotistical to think that they can read God's mind when he clearly says that no one is going to know when it will happen, he said it would be like a thief in the night. Everyone will be doing there own thing and not even paying attention and BAM that's when it'll happen. If we do go on the 21st, yey! If we don't, yey! Either way I don't really care but I think all these people are nuts.

I was just about to say this!

tesary · May 2011

In the bible it says that no one will know the date of judgement day, so i do not believe May 21st is judgement day.

This.

Also, if what they teach is true, none of us would meet our babies, as they are considered innocent and not old enough to understand their actions or choices. They would be raptured as well, all the children would be.

Regardless, I think its a bunch of BS.

norbert5 · May 2011

I am going to be at a beach house with my family so I think I am set. Stick out tongue

LollyBug18 · May 2011

The Bible definitely says that no one knows when it will happen. It evens says that Jesus doesn't know. Supposedly these same people have already made a false prediction in the past and this is more than there first attempt at scaring people into "believing". Sad, really. I suppose it really could happen on that day but I'm not going to care if it does because I know where I'll be. And I could say I'd be sad not to meet my baby or something like that but I also know that in Heaven there is no such thing as mourning or sadness.

marooner · May 2011

Ha, it's DD #1s 2nd Birthday Party!! We'll be outside enjoying family & the beautiful (I HOPE) weather!

There have been billboards up around town about this for MONTHS, and people were handing out pamphlets outside of my office until security shooed them away.

You can even find pet-care services online for people who don't want to leave their pets on their own when they ascend. The companies place the pets with "heathens" who won't be taken up in the rapture.
