It’s been five months since radio broadcaster and author Harold Camping warned the end was nigh. He now says the spiritual Rapture has already occurred. And on Friday, Earth will experience its physical destruction.Move along, said Rebecca Denova, visiting lecturer in religious studies at the University of Pittsburgh. There’s nothing to see here.
“This is not unusual,” said Denova. “Every time things look bad, somebody comes along and proclaims the end is beginning.”
Catastrophic events have led to end-time warnings for thousands of years. The world’s end is described by belief systems other than Christianity, including Judaism and Islam.
