Summary:
Everyone expected to die yesterday. However we are still here. The 89-year old Christian Harold Camping firmly believed that the rapture would be 21st of May. He refused to schedule appointments and did not want to go on TV because he believed that he would not be here anymore. People had used up there bank savings and had moved their families believing that they would die. Camping first attempt to predict the end of the world also failed. In 1994 was his first prediction, however when that did not happen he said it was an miscalculation.
I guess all you can do is laugh about it. I do feel sorry for people who used all their money and moved their families. However you do not see why you would do such a thing. Even if you believed the world was going to end there is always a small chance that that would happen. And you have some major problems when that happens. And of course you had the skeptics. If you were on twitter you had the #endoftheworldconfessions or #endoftheworldafterparty tweets. I think stuff like predictions of the end of the world are crap. Why would God tell us when he is going to go all berserk and kill us all? That would take the fun away of utter chaos.
