Has there been any comment from Harold Camping about the failed "Rapture?"
Anything at all?

Or has he run away, yet again?

1. Note on 'running away'
Edited on Mon May-23-11 04:34 AM by RandomThoughts
Function not data. Saying I wont join some organization, is becuase they require you to believe as they do to be part of it. So going further down the road is not leaving that organization, or running away, but not giving in to some demand that is an 'unjust deal'

I say that becuase some think not being part of what they think is best is running away from them, it can also be standing in front of them.

Or I would not want Wolf Blitzer explaining to me how it works, like he did to Aston Cusher in that one clip. Although his expression was funny.


I really like BioShock's Star Wars The New Republic's explanation of the Voss. Where they are not interested in how everyone else explains the force, you know why that is. Because they know nobody can know for sure. And someone trying to explain it to you exactly how it all works, is pretty funny. It can expand thought on the topic, but it is a choice what you believe, not a knowing for sure.

So you have some idea, share it, but don't say what you know it to be when you can't know for sure.

Part of the Blind Leading the Blind, and in this favorite video. A Jedi must learn to fight blind, and part of that is knowing they to are blind.

3. Yeah, he's "flabbergasted."
"Flabbergasted" with all the $$$ he's screwed the ditwits out of. :eyes:

If he really is "flabbergasted," this proves Camping is a blithering asshole.

6. Yep..."Thank You Suckers"...
His "believers" already are making up their excuses. The "calculations" were off or that this is just the "start" of the end.

Camping, just like he did in '94, will find an excuse that will suffice to his sheeple and then work on his next "date". Meanwhile keep sending in those checks...

7. But why would anyone accept calculations
from people who rejected reason - fugging stupid creationists who abhor science.
I can't believe humanity is that stupid. Lots of Aholes here paid for 'fast food baptisms' :rofl:

9. Freedom...
Free to be stupid is a guaranteed right and while some may feel some pity or empathy to those who believed in this latest "the end is near" scam, I don't...and found it highly amusing. But so be it..."true believers" will believe black is down if it justifies their need to have a certainty in an uncertain world.

What this latest Camping scam briefly shed a little light on his radio empire and the dark side of religious radio that does have a profound affect on politics. Wanna know where the "Obama is a moooslim" crap churned? It was fundie radio that runs 24/7 all over the country and is flies under the radar compared to its more boistrous hate radio bretheren. Many of these networks have become money pits...a cross of gold that regularly profits off its listeners. Camping is the old master at this shakedown.

:hi:

10. You are right
That's why it's fun watching them self destruct.
