I read in one of the related articles about this a few days ago, one man actually left his job and went travelling with his family to "warn/teach others".

Other people have gone into hiding etc. The "preacher" in this case has raised $17 million in donations from other believers. That's not very heavenly.

The world isnt technically going to "end" till we run out of oil.

Once oil goes, humans are up s...t creek without a paddle and their hands and feet tied together.. The end for many..
