Doomsday Preacher at it Again (Donations in the millions of dollars)

Harold Camping, the one who predicted that 200 million Christians would be taken to heaven Saturday before catastrophe struck the planet, apologized Monday evening for not having the dates “worked out as accurately as I could have." He spoke to the media at the Oakland headquarters of his Family Radio International, which spent millions of dollars_ some of it from donations made by followers — on more than 5,000 billboards and 20 RVs plastered with the Judgment Day message. 

It was not the first time Camping was forced to explain when his prediction didn't come to pass. The 89-year-old retired civil engineer also prophesied the Apocalypse would come in 1994, but said later that didn't happen then because of a mathematical error. 

Now he has revised his apocalyptic prophecy, saying he was off by five months and the Earth actually will be obliterated on Oct. 21. 

Why does he keep doing this? I don't know -- but maybe its creates some very good business. In 2009, the nonprofit reported in IRS filings that it received $18.3 million in donations, and had assets of more than $104 million, including $34 million in stocks or other publicly traded securities. For the period from 2005 through 2009 the organization received $80,091,023.00 in donations. Last year BHC received a little over $25,000.00 in donations. Looks like FACTS don't sell as well as ??? whatever Camping is selling. I can only imagine how much information we could get into the public's hands with just a fraction of that. Here is the link to make a BHC donation, if you are interested in helping us educate people, instead of scare them   -- http://www.biblicalheritage.org/BHC/donate.htm
