You can't keep a good grifter down
And so, after a spectacular "crash and burn" of his Judgement Day Prophecy, Harold Camping is back for a third time with a new improved prophecy.
The evangelical Christian broadcaster whose much-ballyhooed Judgment Day prophecy went conspicuously unfulfilled on Saturday has a simple explanation for what went wrong -- he miscalculated.He is 89. Why he doesn't take the money and retire to a nice island with his 72 hired virgins is beyond me. No one can make that much money and honestly believe the crap he throws out there.
Instead of the world physically coming to an end on May 21 with a great, cataclysmic earthquake, as he had predicted, Harold Camping, 89, said he now believes his forecast is playing out "spiritually," with the actual apocalypse set to occur five months later, on October 21.
Camping, who launched a doomsday countdown in which some followers spent their life's savings in anticipation of being swept into heaven, issued his correction during an appearance on his "Open Forum" radio show from Oakland, California.
