Yeah I saw one on my way to Louisiana a few weeks back. Everyone in the van immediately made fun of it and it became the butt of all jokes for the next couple hours.

The Lord used it for a good purpose then.
 
There are two of them in Abilene, but they are different from the one on that link. The ones here have all the info and then show a man kneeling in prayer. They even ran something on the local news about it a few weeks ago. The reporter was trying to be serious about the story and I guess respectful since it involved "religion" but you could tell even the young female reporter thought it was ridiculous.
 
They have shown up here in Maryland as well. Apparently they are appearing all over the place. So far i have heard alot of people scoffing at the idea presented on the board and have even had a few people ask me for clarification, which is a wonderful opportunity to share the truth with them.
 
I haven't seen one up here, and I hope I don't. While we know they are wrong, the Secularists, etc. will use it as an example of "Christian stupidity", despite...few of any Christians in any Christian tradition believe in May 21 2011.
Every once in a while people will still tell me RC priests committed suicide on 6/6/06 :p
 
One of his followers passes out fliers here at school and yells out "Yahweh" really loud every minute or so at people walking by.

Herald Camping's Family Radio offices are here in Oakland I think.
 
I'm going to call Harold camping's business (I kind of feel dirty when I call it a ministry) a few days before the 21st and ask for some money since, obviously, they won't need any of their savings!
 
Saw a few of these when driving from Texas back to Louisville a few months ago. As was said before, it became the butt of some jokes between my girlfriend and myself. Although it did lead to her asking a lot of eschatological questions...

Maybe he will sign over his radio network to a Reformed ministry since he will no longer need it :wink:
 
I was driving home a few minutes ago, glanced over and saw one of those billboards. I hope they're right about May 21st, though the 19th or the 20th would be even better.

Assuming May 21st comes and goes, and its not the day, I'm really curious what goes on "behind the scenes" among Harold Campings followers, "damage control", if you will. I wonder what is said to maintain faithful followers who will rally again when the next date is set. Or, maybe nothing can be said, and the movement will dwindle.
 
Plenty of them in San Diego. All over the place. We're having the men from church get together for an end of the world party on the eve of the day. Then we'll (provided the world is still under our feet) convene for a seminar on false teachers the following morning. Should be quite fun. Hopefully I can talk a few coworkers into coming along.
 
Yesterday, we had rain all day and some high winds. After church today we drove past the billboard and it was laying face first on the ground demolished. We had a good laugh.

I read somewhere that he's been talking about Jonah recently and how God saved Ninevah. The author was betting the Harold would use this to try and prove that he was actually right about the date but God repented.
 
Does anyone else get this song in their heads when reading this thread?

None of the signs are on display here, but we're a bunch of pagans. I guess they've given up on us.
 
I debated posting that video for several days. It's funny on one level (i.e. "laugh to keep from crying"), but on a deeper level this really isn't funny. There is a group of people out there--a reasonably large one--that has been deceived by this man. We can only pray that on May 22 (or before) the Lord will open their eyes to see the fraud that Camping is...and maybe even bring Camping himself to true repentance and faith.

:lol: I actually did!

Our church is having our annual spring movie festival that weekend. Should be a good way to forget about all that non-sense. :)
 
These leaflets are over here too. May 21st is quite an ominous day: its my mother-in-laws' birthday.
