Just across San Francisco Bay in Oakland, Christian evangelist Harold Camping believes that around sunset this evening, Saturday, May 21, the Rapture will begin.
At this point in time, he said, believers will go to heaven and non-believers will endure five months of hell on Earth. After Saturday’s rapture, Camping then predicted that the world will end on October 21st 2011.
Three coincidences I noticed about the MLS schedule and that of the Rapture:
- The Quakes home game this evening starts at 7:30 PM, and sunset is 8:14 PM
- There are five months to go in the MLS season
- The last game of the Quakes regular season against FC Dallas is October 22, 2011.
So, I’m not quite sure if I should set off for the game or not, but how could I miss the spectacular half time show that will surely follow?
To my relief, it turns out that Camping may not be fully vested in his position because the lease on the Family Radio station over whose airwaves the doomsday was predicted, does not expire until 2023.
Enjoy the game everyone…here’s hoping for a win for the rapturous Earthquakes fans.
