End of the world, Saturday, 21st May
I had a quick mooch and couldn't see any other threads on this, anyway, that reknowned nutcase Harold Camping believes the end of the world begins this Saturday with 200 million Christians being raptured.

Fortunately most Christian leaders are rubbishing it rather than whipping everyone up into a pointless frenzy.
Anybody want to have a sweepstake on what excuse he'll use when he wakes up on Sunday morning and nothing's changed?

Best bumper sticker I ever saw was in Atlanta, which said -
"If the Rapture comes, grab the steering wheel!"....

Re: End of the world, Saturday, 21st May
I wonder if we could delay it 'till the end of the upcoming two parter of Doctor Who. I'd hate to die not knowing what happened.

End of the world? Apocolypse? Has anyone told "Buffy"? She's usually good at handling those

Just in case it does end could I say it's been nice knowing you all.

I've lost count of the predictions of the end of the world. Just a load of tosh. Don't expect the bank to forget about those bills on Monday.
