For those who came in late, Ronald Wienland claims to be one of the two prophets "dressed in sack cloths" that is mentioned in the book of revelations (his wife is the other one). He has written books and made blogs explaining that these are the "end-times" (again).

In spite of the fact that he has not gotten a single prediction right these past few years, he is sticking to his guns. In fact, in his latest BLOG he has gone for broke and predicted that Jesus will return on May 27, 2012. His financial activities are under investigation so that would turn out to be a very convenient date for him. This is his first RADIO INTERVIEW in nearly 3 years.

It will be interesting to hear what excuses he comes up with on May 28.

Didn't we just do this last year?
 
Why do these idiots contradict their own Bible?

It's not something vague either. It flat out says no one but god will know the hour.

Have any of these nuts addressed this?

Well, I did a search of this forum and got no hits on his name (maybe I spelled the name wrong). In any case, a specific date for the second coming is something new.

I think Beelzebuddy was making a snide reference to that nutbar (can't think of his name right now) who predicted the second coming twice in 2011.

Harold Camping. He predicted that the second coming and rapture would occur on May 21, 2011. When nothing happened he claimed that there were so few righteous people that almost nobody was raptured. Then he claimed the would would end on October 21, 2011. So technically, that's only one second coming prophecy for 2011.

In the past, he's predicted that the world would end on May 21, 1988, and later on September 6, 1994.

There's a website out there that has cataloged failed end-world prophecies, and notes somewhere around 300 of them. Though let's be honest here: The actual number is much higher.
 
1669: The Old Believers in Russia believed that the end of the world would occur in this year. 20 thousand burned themselves to death between 1669 and 1690 to protect themselves from the Antichrist.

Also here is a long list of failed end of the world predictions as mentioned earlier.

I think that we should demand that Harold Camping burns himself this time.

I hated watching the You Tube video of a woman that had given all her money to Harold Camping.

What is that old saying? "Build a man a fire and keep him warm for a day, set a man on fire and keep him warm for the rest of his life"?

Burn Harold Burn!!!

They don't even address the fact that Jesus promised that the second coming would occur before they had all died.

Mark 13:
Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. 31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.

32 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

You know, these threads are really no fun unless you get some True Believers to defend the sackcloth-garbed prophets. Edge? Doc? You out there?

Thanks for the link, I lost the bookmark for that.

BTW, anyone else think of the old saying about "Fool me once"? How do these people keep on falling for the same old trick and not die from embarrassment when they inevitably turn out wrong?

They'll only defend him if he's their prophet. Otherwise he's been possessed or tricked by Satan.

[sarcasm]The same excuse a certain 3000+ year old middle-eastern religion from Israel uses to deny Jesus when he fails to fulfill certain prophecies no doubt? [/sarcasm]

For real. This crap is all hogwash. There is nothing of practical use to any of it.

I have a cousin who is a Jehovah's Witness, and his wife has been preaching away that the world is going to end this year. I suppose that's why they just took out a mortgage they can't afford, but aside from that, does anyone know what the JW stand is these days? I don't see anything specific on a cursory net search, so don't know if this is her own interpretation or what.
 
Well, I have nothing specific scheduled for later this year... so I'm cool with it.

Sux for those of you who pre-booked a Tam or CON etc.

:)
 
Every time they schedule an apocalypse it turns out I already have plans. Is it so much to ask that these prophets check my diary first? :p
