Was the world meant to end on 21st May 2011?

Answer 1

It is, and was since it is past May 21st 2011, false. The world could end at anytime, but some Christians believed May 21st 2011 was Judgement day (not the end of the world).

And that the world would end 5 months later, on October 21st 2011.

It is possible the world could end on October 21st 2011, as it is possible the world could end any day, but not in the way that some Christians believe.

no. i am writing this on the 22nd and i am not dead.

um, if you haven't noticed, we're all still alive here... so no. the world will not, did not, end on may 21st.

Answer 2

I believe that Christians were to be taken up into heaven on the 21st May 2011, but that non-Christians and sinners will remain on earth and suffer many things until 21st October 2011, when the world will finally end. Presumably this means that if there is someone you have not seen since 21st May 2011, that person could have been a good Christian and is now in heaven. But a more likely view is that this was just one more scam to fleece money out of people desperate to earn entry into heaven. There will be more of these 'prophecies'.
