Going Camping at the End of the World by Internet Historian | First Time Reaction

[@ariavachier-lagravech.6910]

Watching Kelsey reaction of Sseth and Internet Historian video I found quite impressive how attentive she is to picked up words that is only shown for like couple of frames. Good reaction videos as usual.

She's a smart cookie, and weird humor is her jam. That's a double whammy.

To this day I'm puzzled as to how I completely missed this when it happend. Now, I'm not from the US but I was already very active online back then, somehow I never heard of this until I saw the Internet Historian video.

[@DrawciaGleam02]

Same here. I'm American though.

[@habitsrabbit]

I'm also puzzled on how you didn't see or hear anything about it online lol I live in the US and I remember it all quite vividly because I first found out about it after hearing a few things here and there online but then I saw one of those billboards in person and it freaked me tf out 😂

[@habitsrabbit]

And this is where I tell the story, and I apologize because it's long and you probably don't even care but y'know what? it's a memory that I cherish so I'm telling it anyways.. I remember that day so vividly because my mom took me to GameStop for my 13th birthday. She bought me the new Portal 2 and a used copy of Black Ops because _my_ copy broke when a ''friend" "accidentally'' tipped my 360 over. And on our way back home we stopped for the light, and on the street to the left of the light sat a huge billboard that's low to the ground.. It didn't feel good _at all_ to see a huge billboard saying I only had 16 days left to live and that I should "cry mightily unto god for his mercy" Because at _that_ point in my life I had already spent a few years being worried about 2012 and now I had to worry about _this_ shit?! 😂 2012 already had me scared of the end of the world because I didn't want to die before I even got to experience life..But then i immediately forgot about it because the first thing I did when I got home was play my games. I beat portal 2 after just a few hours so then I played Black ops until like 3 or 4 in the morning with my best friend, as we always did.

[@stefanc4520]

[@shinkinshin001119]

Fun facts, this reached all the way to Sweden. I remember being in 5/6th grade (11 or 12 years old), and our middle school got the news. My friend cried in panic, and when my teacher called me as I was still at home watching Minecraft KZbinrs, my teacher called me and asked why I didn't show up. I just said that I was too scared. I now know where my priorities lies if the world ever does actually end.

[@robertfolkner9253]

Clarence Darrow once said that the easiest way to get someone to believe something is to make him want to believe it. Most of the people who fall for this stuff are people who want to believe that the weary toil and troubles of this world will soon end and be replaced with a world of peace and plenty, and that those who mock them and “commit evil” will be banned forever to damnation.

[@mstevens94]

That is true, yet charlatans like Camping made a fortune off of fear and ignorance of people, some of them being financially crippled if not destroyed because of it. It is sad to see people get duped by these false prophets, but unfortunately, they made their bed by giving them money and attention. It shows me that when the actual rapture ever happens, God knows when that is. People will never believe it, much like if Christ came down from Heaven today. Instead, they would probably institutionalize Christ as a crazy person who died by crucifixion at the hands of the Romans thousands of years ago and then was resurrected from the dead, thus claiming to be the son of God, claiming to be the only salvation of humanity. If it was any other person besides Jesus Christ, they would be seen as a crazy person that needs to be on a funny farm, at least. So, yeah, it is sad development of human behavior.

[@TheAngryXenite]

@@mstevens94 He didn't, though. If you actually watched the video then you know that while Family Radio received a great deal of money from donations, they spent not only all of that money but much of the money they had stowed away and the money they gained by selling assets off, all to be able to afford more and more advertising for his prediction. Family Radio mortally wounded its finances and ruined its credibility for a marketing campaign that could only have paid off if Camping was right and the world really did end then (in which case none of them would be around to benefit). To my understanding there's also no real evidence of embezzlement during this, either. This is not the behavior of a scam. It's a senile old man burning EVERYTHING to support an idea he believed feverishly.

[@ericmarley7060]

"How the *HECK* did this happen??" - InternetHistorian

[@silvertail7131]

It's a tricky one. Partially because the Christian Messiah himself predicted the end of days within the lifetime of his listeners, the feeling that it's, just around the corner lingers in a lot of branches, even if they're not supposed to guess dates... But it's not too hard for one to decide they've just been informed, or that they've decoded a message. Personally I just lean on the logical contradiction that if no man can know the day or the hour, then it can never happen. Because in that moment we'd know the day and the hour.

[@kingofrivia1248]

Camping definetly meant no harm. You must consider he was making millions and had massive influence, he spent all that money for this campaign and lost his trustworthyness. He received no benefit from this. He was definitely a confused old man.

[@matiaspereyra9392]

7:50 well, even if you have read the bible and remained Christian you are not going to remember that one specific part that says that, also the religious fanatic have this subconscious desire of living trough a biblical event because even if they are apocalyptic and it means a lot of suffering for everyone else, it's framed as a good thing for the good Christians and of course everyone considers themselves and the people they love good Christians (it's not that they aren't thinking of everyone else but also if you weren't raptured alongside with them then you weren't worth concerning about, again not out of evil it's just how the book and a lot of people frame the event) that makes them prone to believe that the judgment day is coming in their lifetime when someone they know and respect says it with enough confidence Take for example this one girl that made her prayers and went to sleep, had a dream about the rapture and thus she decided it was a message from god, instead of considering that before sleeping she was praying, thinking of God and all that basically put her on a mental track, same as when you go to bed thinking of this or that story that you're reading/playing and have a dream about it

[@Fordo007]

Not to mention the Bible says over and over there will be false teachers who lead people astray. 'Christians' following bad doctrine is sadly something Christians were told from almost day one would be a major issue.

[@TheAngryXenite]

I'd argue a lot of Rapture theology is motivated by a crippling fear of death, which is ridiculous as a Christian to have and ridiculous to turn to the Rapture to avoid, because it is essentially God killing the entire Church before the Last Days come. When someone is called to Heaven, even if we don't have their body we still know they have died, but that is often something Rapture believers INSISTENTLY will not accept. "We will be taken to Heaven before we die, like Elijah was!" I just find it kind of pathetic. It's something people tell themselves because the biblical reality is that no, good Christians do not get to skip the persecution and chaos prophesied during the End Times. God is not going to remove His church from the world when it will be needed the most. *They will have to suffer alongside the rest of mankind (albeit in different ways) during it.*

[@Papercut337]

I was a few years out of high school when this happened. I’m Christian, but I never took stock in it for the reasons stated in the video. Same thing with 2012, but I was more worried about that because of people’s reactions to it and the consequences of that. Thankfully nothing happened that I noticed. Edit: 12:12 The people throwing clothes in the street didn’t believe it themselves. They were people on the Internet trying to prank the people that did believe it.

[@ZombieDragQueen]

5:42 Heaven being 17 is pretty obvious. It references British synthpop band Heaven 17. One of their biggest hits is called "Temptation" kzbin.info/www/bejne/rojapYCoeb1lpZo Actually, British synthpop is closer to American evangelism than you'd think. Depeche Mode's "Behind The Wheel"? They're talking about Jesus, hence the expression "Jesus, take the wheel!"

[@gladiatordragon9219]

If you're going to try to predict the Biblical end of times, this ain't how you do it. Here's a list of a few ways this contradicts the Bible: -First, as stated in the video, "No man can know the day or the hour." -Second, the way he said things would end contradicts Genesis, the first book. After the events of Noah's Ark, God swore to not flood the entire earth ever again. Thus, Camping's prediction of flooding is bogus. -Third, while it is a bit more debatable, we have the book of Revelation. While it was accepted into the Bible, its sourcing isn't as trustworthy as others. Its origins aren't as concrete as the other books of the Bible, and there are quite a few Christian denominations that reject it. I do think Camping did truly believe what he was saying - however, I do think that he was way too convicted of his calculations, which had no basis, and it would have been very good for him if someone around him said "Hey man, this is a bad idea." Additionally, Deuteronomy 6:16: "Do not test the LORD your God as you tested Him at Massah." Pretty sure Camping was doing that.

She asks how people can read/believe the Bible, yet still try and predict something "no man can know". The answer is simple, they were intelligent enough to understand the Bible is NOT internally consistent, and if something has no internal consistency, EVERYTHING contained within should be treated as false by defacto; what they weren't, was intelligent enough to realise that meant the Bible itself wasn't something that should be used as a legitimate source of information.

If there really were inconsistencies that were so obvious and irreconcilable it wouldn't still be a thing.
