But the day has barely started in America where he lives has it!
However, I am sure we will all be saying "Good morning" as usual tomorrow.
I wonder if he will have another stroke when it doesn't all work out
I honestly think he believes what he sprouts. So a very sad day for him!

No he's not a liar. He cares but is old and his calculator is broken. He sincerely wants to help people. He had a dream that the world would end and it may yet one day, but not all dreams come true but still we believe in some of them anyway. Ever have a dream you are choking then wake up to find your quilt is wrapped a little too snug around your throat, so what that dream a lie or the truth? Yes to both those questions. So sometimes we believe things with all our hearts even things that aren't real. Hard to call him a liar. Can only say he's wrong again, thats all but he cared so he reached out is all it boils down to. People are wrong every day of the week about something only most of us don't boast about it with a video lol. But you have to give him 2 points for caring even if he was misguided, he was sincere I believe. When today doesn't happen as he says it will, he will get out his calculator again and make another mistake. Old age is when we think a little slower and less clearly sometimes, nothing more, nothing sinister about it. I'm old so I can speak for that point myself. WE want to be helpful as we were when we were young, but somehow it just never seems to work out a lot of times like it used to and thinking gets a little fuzzy despite our most careful thinking. I feel sad for him. I'm not sad the world didn't end lol, but I'm sad for the man who cared enough to reach out to save us all twice already and he saved no one and made himself look pretty sad frankly. But he didn't do it out of malice and based on that you can't hate the guy.

incorrect. He reported might want to 20 first, 2011 all 2 hundred-300million suckers *cough* believers might want to be lifted into Heaven and Jesus might want to happen and initiate the suffering for something else human beings. Oct twenty first grow to be purely the ultimate day the position each thing actual grow to be meant to end. obviously if might want to 20 first failed Oct twenty first will fail too. tenting is an fool.

This goes to show that no one can predict the end of the world. People have been predicting the end of the world for thousands of years. And no one's been right yet.

I think that senility is creeping in for Mr. Camping. I wonder what the next date will be?

I'm more concerned about Islamic Extremists taking over Lybia, now that Muarmmar Ghadafi is dead.

Um, no he is NOT dead. No, he also not a liar, but he is delusional. As for you believing in this or even giving it a second thought, I'd say you need to get a life.

He hedged on it this time. He did not say the world would definably end, he said it was possible.

No, he thought he was telling the truth. He was mistaken.
That was way last year; and he died not long after his mistake. He was old enough to be entitled to die at any time.
