Besides as the JW's always said, "No one knows the exact time, but were in the last days, the light is getting brighter, there's a new thought, this old system is doomed, paradise on earth is at hand....."

And how can someone who has no understanding of Christian fundamentals know that that's Wrong?

What about sacrafices? The Mayans didn't think that what they were doing was wrong. They thought they were honoring their Gods.

That's what is misunderstood heavily.

You think that just because you get down on your knees, and tell God more lies about how you repent your sins that you are automatically forgiven?
God doesn't say lie about repenting....

He says REPENT!! The only people who truly repent, are people who are sorry for what they have done, and what they've become.
And they will be forgiven. People make mistakes. HUGE mistakes. Everone deserves a 2nd chance.

Penitence, can be gained, and lost.

This Saturday in Times Square, Robert Fitzpatrick will be waiting for the world to end.

This 60-year-old MTA retiree from Staten Island joins the hordes who follow the Biblical calculation of Family Radio preacher Harold Camping. Camping predicts that the end of days is near -- in fact, it's tomorrow, May 21, at about 5:59 p.m. ET.

"Judgment day will begin very shortly before midnight Jerusalem standard time. I think it's going to be instantaneous. Everything will be destroyed and God is going to create a new heaven and a new earth," says Fitzpatrick, who spent his $140,000 life savings to have 3,000 posters put up in New York City's subway and bus system, warning of this impending End of Days.

Though many are chalking up this May 21 hysteria to religious zeal, leaders among mainstream Christian denominations have largely condemned date-setting, citing Bible verses that say no man can know the time of the Rapture.

Why are Fitzpatrick and those on Family Radio's recent proselytizing tour convinced that the end is upon us, despite centuries of failed predictions?

That's hard to answer, but psychologists and religious scholars say it derives from a number of very human urges: from the fear of death to the desire for justice to the fatalistic despair that this world is too broken ever to be fixed.

Although there's no way to gauge how many people actually think the world will end with a bang (or a whimper) on Saturday, doomsday is big in the U.S.

"Thirty to forty percent of Americans report believing that the end times are coming eventually, so while most reject the teachings of Camping, there is a strong strain of this kind of thinking in this country," says Christian Lane, author of "The Age of Doubt: Tracing the Roots of Our Religious Uncertainty."

So for some, anxiety spurred by the recent natural and economic disasters makes apocalyptic thinking more appealing, he says. "It becomes easier to convince people that things are getting worse and that the answer will come through divine dispensation, rather than have them face the fact that humanity must fix its own problems."
Gary Laderman, chairman of the department of religion at Emory University, says the story of ultimate reckoning is very popular in religious texts and popular culture.
"It's a scenario where you can pinpoint the heroes from the villains, good from evil. It's a powerful story that people identify with. It's not so foreign to be fixated on the end of the world, our society today just fixates on it in popular culture instead, with Armageddon movies," he says.

Nevertheless, Camping's campaign isn't likely to win many converts, says Stephen O'Leary, an expert in religious communication at University of Southern California.
"The people following his predictions are apocalyptic enthusiasts already looking for signs of the end times. They want to reinforce their idea that these are the last days," he says. They are "unable to face up to the reality of their mistakes and misplaced faith when the prophecy is wrong," he adds.

Waiting For the World to End

"These people are so eager for this 'setting right of all injustices' that they make the mistakes so many have made in the past. These predictions have come and gone literally hundreds of times," he says.

But behind the eagerness is a dichotomy between hope for the "new world" and fear over the ending of this one, religious experts say.

With their buses emblazoned with slogans and their neon-colored T-shirts, Camping's followers have been, at times, jubilant as they spread the "awesome news" that "the End of the World is almost here!" Fitzpatrick seems to share none of their glee.

With only hours remaining before he believes most of the people of the world will be condemned forever, Fitzpatrick echoes his subway ads, urging others to pray. His voice has nothing of the preacher's fervor.

"This is a time for sorrow and sobriety. We all have people we love who have no interest in this and the Bible tells us that these people will perish. A lot of children are going to die," he says.

Are we there yet?

I need to know if I should set up my scopes for Saturday night viewing. Its a lot of work and if the world is ending or there's gonna be 20% of the people that disappear I may need to check see if they left any better scopes laying about.

"the fatalistic despair that this world is too broken ever to be fixed."

Are you ****ing kidding me? This is the most awesome time to live in all of history! Other than to move forward a few years, there is no time in history that has ever been this awesome.

We are all very very lucky to live in this time. Even after tomorrow.

Pop Culture Signs That Doomsday Is Upon Us

10 crazy reasons the end of days might actually be here.

10. If Oprah Winfrey's ending her talk show, the whole world might as well end with it. Ahead of May 21, 2011, ABCNews.com put together a list of examples from pop culture that suggest Doomsday may indeed be upon us. Winfrey has held court as the queen of the daytime talk show for so long (25 years, to be specific) that it seems inconceiveable she'll end her reign on May 25. But maybe the big O knows something we don't ...

9. Think about the most famous people on TV these days. Jerry Seinfeld? Nope. Jennifer Aniston? Gone to the big screen. Instead, we have self-made reality TV stars like Bethenny Frankel and Kim Kardashian. Frankel recently made a reported $120 million by selling a line of low calorie cocktails to a major liquor distributor. Kim Kardashian reportely made $65 million in 2010. "Jersey Shore's" pouffy princess Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi got $32,000 to lecture to students at Rutgers University. Remember, these people got famous just by being themselves. Call it luck, call it talent, or call it a sign that the world's gone mad.

8. The comeback of leggings was disturbing enough. Jeggings, in all their acid wash and dark rinse glory, might be seen as one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse.

7. But they're not worse than denim diapers. Putting jeans on a baby's bare bottom? Have we all gone insane?

6. Worse still is the trend of people not wearing pants at all. Lady Gaga started it, shunning anything that even remotely obscures her upper thigh region in favor of skin-tight leotards. (When she wants to be modest, she puts on fishnets, as shown here.) Rihanna followed her lead. These days, the "S&M" singer favors spangled panty-like bottoms.

5. Italy actually let the cast of "The Jersey Shore" into their country. Why would they do that if it didn't think the end of the world would cut short Snooki and co.'s stay?

4. As the 1990s faded into the 2000s, it seemed one of the most disturbing epochs of music had finally come to an end -- the boy band era. But like a nightmare you just can't shake, it's back. New Kids on the Block and The Backstreet Boys are combining forces, touring this summer (assuming Doomsday doesn't destroy them, of course) to the delight of ... who, exactly?

3. In March, Charlie Sheen got fired from the hit show he once headlined, "Two and a Half Men." He launched a North American comedy tour in which he practically got booed off stage in city after city. And yet, according to Forbes, he made $40 million in the last 12 months, more than he's made ever before. It just doesn't make sense.

2. Maybe the world is about to end because humans seem to care more about their pets than they do about themselves. Time magazine reported in 2009 that annual spending on pets in the U.S. had reached $43 billion. After Doomsday does its work, perhaps cats and dogs will inherit whatever's left of earth.

1. Or maybe vampires will lord over the planet's remains. After all, they're so popular right now. "The Twilight Saga: The Official Illustrated Guide" isn't even a new novel in the series -- it's a guide to all of Stephenie Meyer's "Twilight" books -- and yet, last month, it was at the top of the young adult bestseller list. Vampires, if this is what we've come up with after more than 2,000 years of civilization, go ahead, take it, do what you will.
