I read in a CTV news article that this group has put their message up on billboards in many Canadian cities, including here in Calgary.

Does anyone know where it is?

Only 6 days left to repent your sins and find good ole JC. Either that or booze, drugs and hookers.

I saw this one by the Hooters off Barlow Tr NE. This was taken last month, before I heard anything about the campaign.

I wonder if these are the same people I have been seeing around TO with signs that say to repent because the end is near.

How does this group afford so much advertising? Have all their members sold off all their worldly possessions or something to prepare for May 21st? They're going to be screwed on May 22nd and that will be a great circus to see what their response is...

Unless their leader tells them to kill themselves on May 20th...It's happened before in so many doomsday cults.

-edit

Just read the website. Judgment only begins on May 21st. Then we go through 7 months of tribulation which is like hell on earth. Then on October 21st, the earth is destroyed and humanity is wiped out.

Apparently these guys rely upon listener donations and do pretty good at it because their net assets are in excess of $122million. Quite the scam they have going. How much do you want to bet the leaders disappear into some sort of underground bunker next Saturday just to keep the scam going?

Apparently Richard Camping is worth a bit of money so I think he's financing it all himself.

What you've stated above is my biggest fear in all this. I don't think he will direct them to kill themselves but how many will do it when they are "Not taken by god,"? =\

Look on the bright side, you won't need to light the BBQ. Just understand that all your guests that are saved will be unavailable.

He must have had an orgasm when he was first taught multiplication in elementary school.

Friends of mine are getting married on the 21st. The groom will be losing his freedom, his will to live, the ability to ever made a decision, he will no longer be allowed to look at other girls, he has to dispose of his porn collection, can no longer watch sports, action movies, or good tv, he can no longer drink in excess or smoke cigars. For the groom the 21st will be judgment day, the start of his hell on earth, and in turn will prove Camping correct
