    I kinda feel bad for the guy. I think a lot of the "believers" are going to be upset with him. I've watched a few of his interviews and he isn't a bad guy..just a little extreme (and a little crazy)

    I went on the message boards of their website offering to purchase any believers house for $1000. Maybe deep down those gullible idiots didn't believe it either.

    this kinda reminds me of the business someone started that would pass on a note to a loved one if they were still here after the rapture. they guarenteed delivery if it happened b/c they knew they'd still be here...lol

    NYPOSTFitzpatrick, 60, a retired MTA engineer who became the city’s self-appointed siren of the Apocalypse, spent $140,000 of his life savings on 3,219 bus, subway and commuter-rail ads trumpeting the coming “global earthquake” and urging sinners to repent to Jesus. Fitzpatrick is a follower of Harold Camping, 89, an Oakland, Calif., evangelist who promised that on Judgment Day the righteous would be sucked up to heaven while sinners — even children — were to rot among fires, earthquakes and tsunamis engulfing the Earth. People would slowly die off until Oct. 21, 2011, when God completely KO’d the earth and all of its inhabitants. Even cynical city dwellers got into the spirit of Doomsday, with New Yorkers hawking T-shirts, holding Judgment Day parties and Mayor Bloomberg deadpanning that he’d suspend alternate-side parking if the Earth crumbled. Fitzpatrick’s self-published tome on his predictions, “The Doomsday Code,” earned $1,400 in royalties, he said. But his publicity stunt wasn’t about getting checks. On Judgment Day, after all, money wouldn’t matter. Yesterday, the doomsayer ate a simple breakfast of toast and righteous “Ezekiel 4:9 Sprouted Grain Cereal” at home and boned up on the word of the Lord with his blue Bible. He tossed a few peanuts to squirrels in his back yard, though all the animals were supposed to die later that day in a “fireball.” “I expect this to be my last meal,” he said solemnly after a light lunch of chicken tenders and spinach. The gloomy Gus visited his sickly mother in a Staten Island nursing home one last time and prayed to reunite with her when they went knock, knock, knockin’ on heaven’s door. After 6 p.m. came and went, Fitzpatrick blamed himself for the wrong date with Doomsday, as “God is never wrong.” He schlepped on the R train back to the Staten Island Ferry and pondered his next step. “I didn’t water my plants, I didn’t do my dishes before I left. I didn’t expect to go back home,” Fitzpatrick conceded.

    I love this soooooo much.this is where super duper religious people make religion look really stupid.I don't believe in any religion but I don't knock people for believing.for me I think It's all made up.doesn't this prove that people are crazy and easily brain washed to think this stuff is real?i don't want to start a religious argument here but really people.i would love to know how these people's brain function on a daily basis. How many end of the world dates have there been?how can you predict the date AND TIME?? total freaking idiots.I do believe this world is coming closer to the end in some way.way way too many earthquakes, tsunamis,torandos,hurricanes.seasons are all out of wack.the snow, rain,and flooding are worse than ever.these "religious"wars are out of control.I'm glad I brought a child into this world :(

    it's the same way the genius' thought that Y2K would hit at midnight eastern time, even though the day had been advanced for hours around the world.

    You know what, I think the rapture actually did happen... But no one in modern times is possibly able to follow all of the rules of the ancient bible...
