More Rapture fun...

Good old, certifiably insane Harold Camping is at it again. Despite being wrong and being turned into a worldwide media joke twice now, he's going for the trifecta of thick-headedness.

The Rapture was supposed to happen Saturday. All the good people were going to head off to supper and the rest of forever in Heaven. In the meantime, life on earth would be miserable for the rest of us, eventually resulting in the complete and total destruction of the planet (by God) on October 21st.

Despite all evidence to the contrary, Harold now claims that God did actually show up for a visit on Saturday - spiritually. All we have to go by here is Harold telling us it happened, so of course it must have.

Now there is actual physical proof that Virgin Mary made an appearance on Saturday. She stopped down for a visit in Streamwood, Illinois and found herself on the underside of a turtle. That had to be unpleasant, so I'm sure the visit was brief, but at least she left her mark. See the turtle image on the NBC Chicago website.

But Harold didn't foresee that phenomenon. So back to God's roundtrip road trip on Saturday.

Why didn't God take all his faithful followers up to Heaven that day when he left? What was God's exact message when he returned? And more importantly, is it something that could be turned into a really cool catchphrase that Harold can put on a T-shirt and sell for October 21st? Did God try the secret off-the-menu animal-style burger at In-N-Out while he was out that way? Sadly, we're not going to learn the answers to any of those important questions because there's only room in Harold's mind for one thing - a new & improved deranged diatribe resulting in future false prophecy number three...

The world will still be ending - completely - on October 21, 2011. Here's a direct quote from Harold on this: "The world has been warned. The world is under judgement. We're just learning we have to look at all this more spiritual. But it won't be spiritual on October 21."

Why couldn't Harold just go with the flow and pick December 21, 2012 like all the other crazy people? No, he just has to be different. So this year, the world will be not-ending twice!!!

And for those wondering about Harold Camping himself, he's been making the rounds doing TV interviews. Feast your eyeballs on God's new BFF (in Harold's mind at least)...
