Is The End Of The World Coming On June 12th? (open, have at it)

An elusive group just outside of Abilene, Texas is claiming the end of the world is coming in less than a week.
The House of Yahweh recently gave ABC reporter Brian Ross access to their west Texas compound. Yahweh leader Yisrayl Hawkins says a nuclear holocaust will come June 12th and only members of his group will be saved.
All group members change their last names to Hawkins and live in the compound.
Local authorities claim the group is dangerous and practices polygamy. Shane Dee, the local district attorney, says there's no way to describe the group except as a religious cult. Yisrael Hawkins disagrees. "I don't control their mind in a witch-like fashion that the world is speaking of, to where I have some sort of power over them. I merely teach the laws to them."
Hawkins has predicted a doomsday twice before. He's also accused of having two dozen wives, and is facing bigamy charges.

We've actually gotten flyers on our cars at at our home for the past several years from this group, every year predicting the end of the world that year.
I thought this could be a fun discussion starter on 'end times' cults.
Here is their website. http://www.yahweh.com/

Look, it's simply impossible for the world to end . . .
before the final season of "The Shield." Period.

I think that I am going to predict that the end of the world is tomorrow.
Not necessarily June 10 but tomorrow.
That way I will be right when it happens.

Well for heaven’s gate. What are they thinking? The first one there with butterscotch pudding and potassium cyanide will get the concession. Who’s bringing the black Nike’s?

As a wife, I am going to tell you the world ending does not get you out of the responsibility to buy flowers for your anniversary.
