I have always liked Camping I used to listen to the reading of the bible without commentary show. Just verse after verse of KJV with no asides. I also got a perverse pleasure from his Q/A he was kinda funny and uncompromising. in Harold's world most people are going to hell "Christians" included. my cartoon http://beth-aven.blogspot.com/2012/01/blog-post_04.html was inspired by him.

Though I have found his predictions always borderline insane, I am quite impressed that he apologized for the predictions and has seen his error.

First of all, that cartoon is fantastic. Secondly, "you felt bad"? Why?

Also, to all the people that believed in his predictions and divested yourself financially and made no plans for the future because, hey, there was no future.... I feel absolutely no pity for you. You are idiots. Religion rots the brain. Idiots.
