Considering it will be Saturday May 21 in, say, Japan before it's May 21 here, does that mean the world will be ending there before here? As in, we'll have some time to prepare?
In other words, is the world coming to an end by time zone, or all at once?
And, exactly what time? Is it going to be right at midnight? Should I not even bother setting an alarm?

Well, at least my daughter and I will go out happy. Father - Daughter dance is Friday night. And to think, if friday is our last day - I passed on getting a limo to take us and 5 other "couples" to the dance because money is tight right now. (well, that, and I don't like the image that would project)

Par-tay!! Making plans for the loot-a-thon in town. Starting with free gas. If this "scholar" disappoints, well, I load up the cards before the Mayan 2012 option. Gotta have a fallback plan. Boy, would my face be red!
"Every responsibility implies opportunity, and every opportunity implies responsibility." Otis Allen Glazebrook, 1880
Did you see the reaction of the people who were in the audience? Is this the look of people thinking Oh no, the end is here, or Oh no, there he goes again? I think it's the latter. He did this same thing in 1994.
I just hope this guy is like William Miller in the 1800s. The guy who said "I've figured out the world is going to end on x day, so everyone should come into the field with me and we'll go to heaven together." So, they all went to the field, and nothing happened.
Then, a couple days later, he said "oh, wait, I miscalculated. The end of the world is in a couple months. Meet me back in the field then." So, they all met in the field and...nothing happened.
Exactly. None of the supposed numerical meanings that he mentions are Biblical. On top of that, Jesus said "no one knows the day or the hour" and " watch and pray for you do not know when the Son of Man will come." If God gave us the exact date, there would be no need to watch anymore.
This guy Harold Camping wrote a book in the 90s titled "1994?" in which he speculated that Jesus would come back in 1994, so it is pretty much the same thing, except instead of a few months in between it's about 17 years.
Jesus said "watch and pray for you do not know the day or the hour when the Son of Man will come.
He will come, there is no doubt in my mind, but it is foolish to try to guess the date. Jesus told His people to just be ready.
Matthew 25: 1 “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.
2 Five of them were foolish and five were wise. 3 The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them.
4 The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps.
5 The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep.
6 “At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’
7 “Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps.
8 The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’
9 “‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’
10 “But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.
11 “Later the others also came. ‘Lord, Lord,’ they said, ‘open the door for us!’
12 “But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I don’t know you.’
13 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.
Harold Camping has "wrongly" predicted the end of the world before...Sept. 1994. I'm sure he does not like to talk about that swing and a miss moment.
But I have to hand it to the old fella...this time he found a way to milk this prediction for months...
May 21, 2011 is not the day the world ends...it is the beginning of the end...May 21, 2011 is "the first day of the Day of Judgment" according to Harold Camping.
....according to Camping, "October 21, 2011" will be the end of the world !
So, for those who worry about stuff like this...this time, it looks as though there is "process" involved, lasting 5 months.
Any idea how many have predicted the end of the world?...check this out...

Quote: You guys are going to feel foolish for making fun if it really happens.
Anyway, it's been real...see you all on the flip side.
And I will continue to make light of it if it did happen, as being down and overly serious just impedes the clear thinking process. Besides, who wouldn't like a like zombie massacre.
Quote: Not generally known for its sense of humor, the Centers for Disease Control is renowned more for its clinical observation, tracking things like swine flu.
But this week the CDC quietly published a blog alerting Americans that they need to be prepared for any disaster, including a zombie apocalypse.
Dr. Ali Khan is the director of the CDC's Office of Public Health, Preparedness and Response...now dubbed the "Zombie Task Force."
His team was trying to think of a new way to tell people how to prepare for hurricane season when they stumbled on the idea of a zombie invasion.
"Public health preparedness allows us to think about the unexpected and unpredictable events, and I guess you can include zombies in unexpected and unpredictable events," he says.
The blog has important and serious information about disaster preparedness, like creating an emergency kit and planning evacuation routes for yourself and your neighbors.
It's advice heeded even as flood waters rose recently throughout the southeast.
The CDC blog uses humor to ease the anxiety that comes with thinking about potentially dangerous situations.
"There's a lot of real things in this world that can lead to social, political and economic disruption, and zombies serve as a good way for us to be able to talk about that," Dr. Khan says. LINK
