a little extra on the aftermath of this guys prediction. the first part is here

A Farragut man who said the end of the world would begin on Friday has been fired from his job at Knology after going public with it.

John Gilmore had run the East Tennessee operations for phone, cable, and internet company Knology.

He'd predicted five big cities in the US would face economic collapse on Friday 11th November.

He now says he has no hard feelings toward knology, and understands why it let him go.

"In the end I view it as a resignation. I feel God is calling me to do other things. I've said this before but a couple of months ago he told me I wasn't going to work anymore."

John now admits he got the dates wrong but he holds fast to his belief God is going to punish people for their sins, and it is coming soon.

"It is coming. It's for our sins against him and our refusal to ask for forgiveness through his son. That has not changed. And I feel it is imminent and I don't know the date and I don't know the time."

I just love how when Christians make a prediction they always stick with there beliefs even when it turns out wrong...which is pretty much everytime...

I call that stubborn arrogance. thumbsup.gif

Sadly, the guy will issue a statement that "god" gave us a reprieve, but ONLY because so many faithful prayed it wouldn't happen.
this time....................

The amazing thing about 'prophecy' is that you can make up any excuse for why it didn't happen. And the gullible will still be there to hear the next 'great pronouncmant'
bah.

the only prophecy i have heard about 11/11 was good prophecy. Alot of stuff having to do with 11:11 gateways and padagram shifts or whatever they are called. I'm also about to start a new topic that is will raise some questions about a possible END or BEGINNING. The topic is in the Conspiracy and Secret Society section b/c the brain work of skeptics always help identify truth quickly. It addresses this topic:

I'm curious about something. If the Mayan Calendar ends in 2012, and we're going by a calendar which according to Urantia is 7 years off (Christ being born is 7 BC), is it actually 2012?

Is the Mayan 2012 adjusted for our time?

All this gloom and doom on the site made me wonder.
