This is true, and actually quite entertaining, if you don't take any of it seriously. Unfortunately, some weak minded individuals do take it seriously.. and end up selling all of their belongings, etc etc..
This actually reminds me of the Herald Camping predictions, if anyone recalls that. He predicted the end several years ago.. around 1994 I believe, and he had a whole heard of followers buy into it. Of course, when the world didn't end, he claimed he misinterpreted the secret code of the Bible (or whatever), and that he would work on discovering the actual date. Then.. last year, he claimed the world would end in May, and when it didn't.. he basically said "Oops, I actually meant October 21st." When nothing, yet again happened.. his assistant put out a basic apology and never touched the issue again. The sad thing is though, I remember seeing how so many people actually bought into these predictions.. and how their lives were actually effected. A few families actually sold everything they had.. so they could "donate" to his church to get the word out about the end/rapture.
It's all pretty sad when you think about it... but as far as the end goes, as far as I'm concerned it will never be in a single day or night.. but after a long, drawn out process.. probably due to us screwing up the earth we live on.
