| Apocalypse Now: American radio preacher predicts doomsday (again) | |
| Uploaded by AlJazeeraEnglish on 20 May 2011 If Harold Camping is right, then you should probably stop reading this and go say goodbye to your family. The 89-year-old California-based preacher host of the "Open Forum" television and radio show has predicted that the Christian Rapture - the return of Jesus Christ and an accompanying worldwide disaster - is set to take place on Saturday, May 21. "We have no plan B, it is going to happen," Camping said. "The Bible is a very factual book." Camping has, according to some of his colleagues, spent millions of dollars promoting the end of the world, but he predicted a previous Rapture in 1994. Clearly, that didn't happen. Al Jazeera's Rob Reynolds reports from Los Angeles. | |

About a third have already left, but some residents are determined to stay put. They say that the town - and their livelihoods there - mean more to them than the risks they face by staying.
