As a Christian, I believe that one day Jesus will return, God\u2019s Kingdom will be established on earth, and the universe will no longer groan under the weight of sin: Aslan will sing entropy into reverse.<\/p>\n
Jesus himself didn\u2019t know the date that this would occur (Mark 13:32); never fear, though, because Harold Camping does<\/a>:<\/p>\n Harold Camping, 89, predicts that Jesus Christ will return to earth on Saturday and true believers will be swept up, or “raptured”, to heaven.<\/p>\n He has used broadcasts and billboards to publicise his ideas.<\/p>\n He says biblical texts indicate that a giant earthquake on Saturday will mark the start of the world’s destruction, and that by 21 October all non-believers will be dead.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Clearly Harold Camping subscribes to twerp theology; God doesn\u2019t, nor would he wish to lend credence to someone who does, so the last date God the Father is likely to pick for the rapture is May 21st<\/sup> 2011.
