I forgive Harold Camping, not because of his mistake in his prediction of rapture, but I forgive him with his limit of saved souls with in his prediction.
The only limits are in the mind of a delusional closed minded being. May he and his followers now see the light and know there is no limits, there is no straight directional path, people from all faiths are the chosen as long as they live by the genetic moral code society has laid down for us to live in.

I forgive them and anyone who believes their way is the only way.

peace

He and his followers are fools.

Followers of nuts like him just NEVER learn do they?

I just wonder how many folks just screwed up their lives in some way thinking this was the end all because of some deluded myth-believing nut guaranteeing the end would be today.

They deserve it for being so god damn dumb.

And what "genetic moral code" would that be?. You do realize that more people have died in "holy" wars than all others put together. Would that code be, you don't believe as I do so you must die? My favorite author said it best. Religion is a crutch for people who can't handle the unknown.

You find yourself to be important enough that people need your personal forgiveness when their beliefs are different from your own?

Interdasting.

Harold Camping achieved one thing that is beyond argument: he is now a bona fide false profit. A tool of the devil. Way to go Harry. Where will that get you when the REAL day comes, eh?

All roads up the mountain reach the top, it is just the length and hardships that vary.
there is no right or wrong way, unless you tell yourself there is..
peace.

..You sure about that?

(from wikipedia)
The sources cited in this article document an estimated death toll in World War II of 62 to 78 million, making it the deadliest war ever.

I don't feel the least bit sorry for him or his followers ..I find it hard to forgive anyone that causes panic and suicides in the name of religion ..He is a false profit and the sad thing is they will keep on believing every word that drops from his mouth.. He will make up an excuse why this didn't happen and they will belive what he says Harold Camping achieved nothing but show he is a nutball and his followers are delusional..In some ways its very sad..

People's deluded belief in this nonsense is a sign they don't have much to lose somehow, right?

I mean, if you give away everything you own for a mistaken belief, regardless of what that belief might be, it means there is something that made you want to do that in the first place. It's not normal to want to abandon everything, give up everything. It's a sign something is very very, very wrong.

So the question to me is: What is wrong with these people's lives in the first place to make them want to believe this? Maybe its just general human misery and stupidity, I mean people have always believed in this kind of thing, as pointed out already in this thread. But I think its a symptom of social/cultural breakdown. The norms of society are fraying. People are losing their faith and trust in other areas of life: business, education, politics, culture, it all seems to have gone so horribly wrong somehow and people are just fleeing in terror, lashing out, or just reaching out for something to hold onto and they grab onto this crap,

I expect to see a lot more of this in the future.

I would like to hear a whole-hearted apology and a promise to stop predicting what he does not know. Wouldnt it be ironic if Jesus came tomorrow, a time when people least expect Him to come?

Those that believe him make that choice all on their own. HE caused no panick. People that cannot think on their own caused it for themselves. If they quit their Jobs, gave away their savings, etc, etc. it is soley on each of them individualy.
