Okay, in 4 hours it should be 6:00pm in Australia if Australia is wiped off of the face of the Earth at 6:00pm their time then we have time to prepare. Sorry to our Australian Dakkaites but somebody has to go first.

Get your head down and revise young man It just means that the Whore of Babylon will be invigilating in place of Mrs. Tomkins. Although according to the less kind members of the staff, there is very little to distinguish the two.

I've been doing some research and this website helped me http://www.ebiblefellowship.com/outreach/tracts/may21/ now according to this it is working on the theory that Noah built his ark in 4990bc now I'm now genius but even I know thats before the bronze age (which started about 3500bc, I think) so how on earth would he be able to build an ark?

Scripture says no one knows (Matthew 24:36, 'Of that day and hour knows no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my father only.'), he is using, imo, some complicated math formula based on speculation...
If it happens tomorrow it happens, ill be going up. (inc bashes on my beliefs!).
I personally dont think it will happen. Here is my 3 strike rule with Mr. Camping:
Strike 1 - Bible verse above. How can Camping know when it states "no man will know"
Strike 2 - Camping has predicted this like 2 times before. Both wrong. What makes this one the magically correct answer?
Strike 3 - I heard that he said those "predetermined few" will ascend to the heavens. Kinda makes me feel that salvation is not a choice and that contradicts the Bible.
Just my $0.02
And, don't forget Strike 4: his math makes no sense, as there is a 2 that pops out of nowhere. And if his math fails, his whole theory fails!
And as to Strike 3: Yep, and he's totally certain he is one of those predetermined few.

It's supposed to start at 6:00 p.m., so no worries. There is still the possibility of post-Apocalyptic partying.

Lacking a great deal of fire and brimstone. No sign of horsemen anywhere. All it did was rain, but that's hardly apocalyptic.

Don't forget ya'll! It's just the Rapture! We gotta keep our eyes out to see if any of the religous groups get taken up to heaven....
The fire and brimstone is due in October. And then again, we always have Plan B for dealing with daemonic incursions.
