End Of The World

End Of The World on May 21, 2011. At least that's the hysteria being spread by Harold Camping, the 89 year-old fundamentalist Christian radio preacher and president of Family Radio, Inc., based in Oakland, California.

May 21 was the judgment day? It was Harold Camping a preacher from Oakland, California USA. On 6 September 1994, hundreds of his listeners gathered at an auditorium in Alameda looking forward to Christ's return.

Despite the well-known broadcaster’s insistence that Jesus Christ will return this weekend, most Biblical experts and Christian adherents are skeptical  or flat out reject Camping’s claims.

Will the rapture be on May 21?

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (BP)--Maybe you've seen them while watching and waiting in traffic.

A billboard in Oklahoma proclaims, "Noah knew. We can know." Another in Nashville says, "The wise men knew, we can know." A billboard in another country, Tanzania, reveals a little more information, "The rapture -- May 21, 2011. The end of the world Oct 21, 2011."

Not limited to billboards and bus benches, the message has gone mobile. "Noah knew" panel trucks are navigating the highways and byways of Minneapolis and New York. There's even a mobile messenger in Ohio driving around with the vanity license plate 5212011.

The billboard blitz is courtesy of Harold Camping's Family Radio ministry based in Oakland, Calif. According to Camping and his "ambassadors," the rapture will occur on May 21, 2011 and God will destroy the world 153 days later on October 21.
