I'm sure you have seen this already because everyone is talking about it, but this lady made my day. I think she was really classy! :)

Harold Camping NOT predicting the end of the world in 2012?!
Harold Camping isn't giving us any end dates for 2012
I just think it's ironic that Harold Camping, a man who has predicted the rapture three times, isn't jumping on the whole 2012 bandwagon.

I read in a recent article from The Week that he has officially retired from the prediction business.
I don't have the magazine in front of me - my coworker brings them in, they're on our break table (that's more of a stool) at work. If I can remember, I'll quote the magazine for you when I'm back there tomorrow. :)
I did a quick google search and scanned the first page, looked like most things were trying to get you to subscribe to the magazine itself.
Either way... at least something shut that old man up. Finally. And all it took was the world NOT ending.... -

Well, the guy took at least three cracks at it (1994, 21 May, 2011 & 21 October, 2011) and he was 0 for 3. It may be that he has just enough intelligence to recognize when to quit while he's (not) ahead!

It's the "wrong religion" for him - Mayan mythology not Xtian superstition. But I'm afraid that Atheism has lost one of its best (albeit unintended) advocates. I'll miss him.

Perhaps it was professional courtesy...

Maybe he's too egotistical to join any predictions made by someone else.

Our summer cottage was named, over a century ago, Il Paradiso - (as author Dave Barry used to say, I am not making this up) we were there during his last end of the world prediction and had a small celebration, thinking that already being in Paradise, we'd be spared the bad consequences of the end of the world - or if not, that we'd have a wonderful last few moments with some friends. Sorry he's not giving us another reason to have a party : )

The article says he's rethinking the whole thing...it's a miracle! Some people keep being more convinced of the end of the world after every wrong prediction.

Wyatt posted a blog postTheists, Cargo Cults, and Logic
So tired of religious apologists asking me to show evidence for the non-existence of their particular god. I've asked them how they would go about showing evidence for the non-existence of the dragon in Carl Sagan's garage or Russell's celestial teapot. They assert that the analogy is false, but don't explain how. They use words like 'logic' or 'inference' as if they were magic charms without fully understanding what these words mean. It's not unlike superstitious primitives from a cargo cult…See More
