Yesterday, May 21, 2011, the world was allegedly supposed to end at 6:00. Harold Camping, the president of Family Radio, made this prediction based on a mathematical interpretation of the Bible. “Earthquakes were supposed to shake the globe, throwing the dead from their graves as believers souls ascended to heaven.” (Live Science). Camping also made an inaccurate prediction of the world ending in 1994, as well.
Camping is among the many people who inaccurately anticipated the end of the world. Some people believe that doomsday is comforting because it ends evil forever. Furthermore, the next doomsday is on December 21, 2012, the day the Mayan calendar ends.
Personally, I did not believe in Judgment Day on the 21, nor do I believe in 2012. These types of predictions can really deceive people who splurge last minute because they think they have a couple days to live. When the world continues, they can truly be in debt and may never get back to where they started.
