And when it doesn't happen then judgement day will conveniently get pushed back another 5 months.
The guy should just admit defeat and give it a break.

He deserves ridicule. There is nothing Christian about continually lying and stressing out gullible people.

This all sounds oddly familiar ... see the "Great Disappointment" of October 22, 1844.

Yes, I'm acquainted with folks who were once affiliated will the 7th day advent church. I'd describe their views as quite different.

Anyone who follows this guy and gives him money after this is an idiot.

Pretty sure you answered your own question. He doesn't really believe. He's a crook. Same as most super high profile evangelists.

Dear Harold Camping,

Please use your parishioner's dollars to advertise my band.
Dancing brings people closer to God, and they don't have to die to do it.
And we could use the publicity.

Sincerely,

Our Band

I knew this was going to happen. I called it the other day talking to a coworker. I predicted that come Sunday, his excuse would read: "Sorry guys, turns out I'm really bad at math, but the end is nigh! I promise!"

The article states that the Judgement was made on May 21, but that the fire and agony won't actually happen until October. Easy enough mistake to make, I suppose.

So since we've all been judged already, we've now got a four months to do whatever the heck we want before the eternal BBQ. 'Doesn't seem to matter if we behave well or really, really badly. The lord works in mysterious ways indeed.
