U.S. evangelical broadcaster Harold Camping has predicted that today is judgment day. Actually, this is his second prediction already as his first one, in 1994, obviously failed.
The 89-year-old self-confessed prophet said he is sure an earthquake will shake the Earth on tomorrow sweeping true believers to heaven in what the Bible teaches as "rapture" just like in the New York Times best-selling novel "Left Behind" by Tim La Haye and Jerry Jenkins (have you read the book?).
"We know without any shadow of a doubt it is going to happen," Camping said in full conviction.
His supporters have posted thousands of billboards, streamers and posters across the United States and would you believe some of these promotional materials have reached the Philippines (Have you seen one? I did).
Camping's basis for the Doomsday prediction is current events like the more-frequent-than-ever earthquakes around the world and rumors of war which are indeed stated in the Holy Bible. But The Book also said that the apocalypse, judgment day and rapture will come like a thief in the night so it's very clear that no one will ever know nor predict when it is going to happen.
