Jesus Will Return May 21, 2011 … Rats! And I Had Plans!

At least I will be in Jerusalem and see it first hand when he descends to the Mount of Olives!

Nut cases never seem to learn from history, or from the Bible for that matter. Jesus said no one knows the day or the hour but the Father alone. History is replete with false predictions, ruined lives and silly calculations.

So here we have another one. He is so sure of himself that he is posting billboards pronouncing the day Jesus will return. I just HAD to stop on the freeway and get a picture of this.

A friend wrote: "The site is back up. His reasoning is that because Jesus said that his coming would be like in the days of Noah. The flood came in 4990 B.C.( his calculation). Noah was on the ark for 7 days before the flood came. One day with the Lord is as 1,000 years so, 7 days (7,000 years) is the waiting period before judgement. Subtracting one year because there was no year "0″ brings us to May 21, 2011. Oh what a tangled web…"

Steve Interviewed on Papal Infallibility in Salt Lake Tribune in Mormon Country

I was recently privileged to be interviewed for a very good article on Infallibility by Kristen Moulton of the Salt Lake Tribune. The end result was very good. You can read the whole article here.

Interestingly, it was published side-by-side with an article explaining Mormons and their view of infallibility with their Mormon prophets. Their concept is poorly thought out and fallible (pun intended). You can read that here.

After reading them both you will be glad to be Catholic.
