A Big Fraud from the Start!!!!!!

Camping predicted the end of the world two times and by the third time (which was three days ago october 21st) ppl are now protesting to get their life savings back. That's what you get for donating money to a fraud that was wrong 2 times. Maybe next time you'll know better IDIOTS!!!!

I look to see some major lawsuits to come out of this. Whether they can win against him is another question though.

If he can reasonably prove that he believed his own rhetoric, then he's not going to be put in jail for it.

I don't think that's going to happen because his followers "donated" the money. basically they gave him millions of dollars without a catch.. .......bastard. right at this moment he probably drink lemonade in his new pool, in his new house laughing his ass off. Well at least we know he's going to burn in hell eventually

There are special places in hell for people like that. He wont be to happy when the devil unleashes those torments on him

I don't know the man, but I don't believe for a minute that he was intending to defraud his followers. I have watched his program on tv and been very impressed with his knowledge of the Bible. I would not be so quick to judge another, if I were you. Let God do that.

In the Old Testament a false prophet was killed. Mr. Camping was not acting as a prophet, saying "Thus sayeth the Lord" and such. He was trying to use the mathematical parts of the symbology of the Bible to come up with a date.

Most of the Christians are expecting something soon, anyway. Mr. Camping did the World a favor by calling Christ and His return to their attention in a big way. I don't think the average Christian was affected by it in any way, and I suppose his followers are a bit disappointed in the prediction not coming true.

On a lighter side, we are still here, so let's all dig in and do some more good works and do a little less backbiting. God doesn't like backbiters, either...

It's their fault as much as Harold Campings. They chose this false prophet when it clearly states in their religion to beware false prophets. They gave their life earnings away for God right? Why does their convictions change when Jesus doesn't return? This not only shows their utter ignorance but also shows how much of a hypocrite they are.

He might need a fancy silver straw for that lemonade. According to wikipedia he had a stroke in June. But hey, medical care is expensive, I'm sure the money will come in handy.

First of all your right about he hell thing, I was just trying to be cute I obviously know that's god's job. second, the dude predicted jesus's coming, idc how he did it but he did and i think that makes him a prophet, god stated in the bible that NOBODY will know when he's coming, that alone should have stopped christians from following him (idk about you but he sure looked like he was passing himself as a prophet in his shows) and third, the guy's a crook. he used religious belief to gain money. If he was a true christian, he would have given all their money back and would have apologize. So i think it's safe to say that he will have a speacial seat next to the ruler of hell himself, unless he turns over a new leaf. And honestly I don't think thats happening soon.

Listening helps. God said all along that a person cannot predict the date. We can, however, know the season. We are there. Read the first 35 verses and you see our day and age precisely. The Bible is famous for saying that we cannot know, but then gives a giant clue that cannot be mistaken. Daniel 12 does this repeatedly. God uses very specific wording. It pays to pay attention to the precision of what is said.

Matthew 24

36 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son,[f] but only the Father. 37 As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 38 For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 40 Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. 41 Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.
42 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. 43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. 44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

You wrote (concerning end-of-days):

["We can, however, know the season."]

In your recurrent megalomania, you once again make yourself a spokesman of the mysterious 'we' you love so much.

But you are not 'we' and the christian 'we(s)' have in the incompetence of their bizarre mythology, already 40 times (since day one) made big, 'official' predictions of that kind.

Considering your personal incompetence and twisting of material you hijack from everywhere, any opinions from you on this matter are worthless.

(PS I can't deny, that I enjoy (for once) sending back travesties of the usual christian evangelist low-level nonsense.)

Are you refering to the day of the Lord? I'll go with the verse below as verification of above. Evidence is all around us.

2 Peter 3
3 Above all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. 4 They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.” 5 But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. 6 By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. 7 By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.

Keyword in this thread is prediction. No man will know the day or the time when the second coming is going to happen said god in the bible. So he shouldn't be making predictions in the first place
