Matthew 24:36 ‘But about that day and hour no one knows, neither the angels of heaven, nor the Son,* but only the Father.

So if no one knows there is at least a chance that Camping gets lucky and picks the right day. . . Why is this belief (that God will destroy the world on some unknown day) any more rational than Camping’s belief that God will destroy it this Saturday? Just asking . . .

A Christian puts his faith in God and His Word. The Bible says on numerous occasions that no man can know the time of Christ's return. The Bible then continues on to say that anyone who makes such a claim is a false prophet. Both of these teachings are in Matthew 24. If you continue to Acts 20, you'll see the teaching that "grievous wolves" will enter the church, and attempt to destroy it from within. This is how I view Harold Camping. He is an agent of Satan, whether he knows it or not.

If you believe in Christ, then you should not be dabbling in the blasphemous rants of someone who clearly is not basing their teachings upon Scripture.
