This happens so often I am surprised that no country has an annual "Judgement Day" holiday.
Sadly these things tend to make us lax in preparing for Judgement Day. We must avoid letting the foolishness of some people, lessen the seriousness of that which we must always be ready for.
I was looking at myself talking to myself and I realized this conversation...I was having with myself looking at myself was a conversation with myself that I needed to have with myself.
^ On the bright side, for me, I have no more exams! *throws confetti*

I wish people are reminded and going back to the path of Allah SWT.
But sadly, as unc. Woodrow said, this kind of prediction increasing in frequency would only make people taking the whole judgement day casually.
Is there any industry/commerce that benefit from these stupid predictions? clairvoyant industry?

"The purpose of the earthquake is three-fold: it will be enormously destructive as God is destroying the earth. Secondly, the people who died as true believers, they will come out of their tombs with their glorified spiritual bodies and will be caught up to be with Christ."
And, he has a B.S. degree in Civil Engineering from the University of California at Berkeley! I guess this proves education alone is not enough.
I'm not buying the numerology that Harold Camping is selling for the usual reasons: Jesus said no one would know the day or the hour, except the Father, and Camping has been wrong before. Other than that, I may not have changed that much since I was a child. I still love Jesus and I still worry sometimes about where the future is headed, to be honest. It's a crazy world out there. But I've pinned my hopes on a God who is a restorer and not a destroyer, who has not given birth to this entire teeming, beautiful universe for the purpose of eliminating all but a tiny remnant of human beings. Whether my end of days comes on Saturday (because, hey, anything is possible) or 50 years from now, I won't spend my energy trying to see it coming. I've been there. I've done that. I won't get fooled again.
Personally, I've never understood the whole prediction-of-judgement-day phenomenon. If one lives day by day in total humility and dedication before God, what should one worry about? God will do what God will do...and He will be blessed however that goes. If someone cares more about God's glorification than about their own self-interested "salvation", then they won't fall into any of the craziness!

LOL!!
CBC News: May 21: Judgment Day or party time? Meanwhile Camping, who has been criticised by more mainstream Christians, said he knows "without any shadow of a doubt" that "Judgment Day" is arriving.
He told Reuters he will spend Saturday with his wife, close to a TV or radio.
"I'll be interested in what's happening on the other side of the world as this begins," he said. "There is no Plan B."
and Plan A is just so Awesome!! buh!!.... <_<
like seriously...i don't understand what people think when they confidently claim such things!!

He got his BS in 1942, Do you realize that makes him older than me?
Let him enjoy the visions of senility. Tomorrow could very well be his last day. I mean at over 90 years how many more days can he have left. Odds are in his favor that his last day will be tomorrow.
BTW I think it is already May 21, in some parts of the world.
If not then what will be said is Inna Lillaahi wa inna ilaayhi raji'oon...
Wa Alaahu Alam..
