One of the biggest stories of 2011 was the day the world was going to end. Harold Camping predicted that the judgment day would take place on May 21, 2011 and the end of the world would take place 5 months later on October 21, 2011. Harold’s prediction drew national attention. He was all over the news and radio stations. According to Camping’s website FamilyRadio.com he stated, “What really happened is that God accomplished exactly what he wanted to happen. That was to warn the whole world that on May 21 Gods salvation program would be finished on that day."
I truly believe that this was the biggest story of 2011 for many reasons. Everyone was talking about this day. However many people didn’t pay it no mind. Including a lot of Christians. They believe that no man will know the day or hour the world will come to an end. Only God would know.
This was an extremely important day for me. It affected me in many ways. When I heard Harold’s prediction about the world ending I was horrified. I was one of the people who actually believed that the world might really come to an end, and I was very upset. The first thing I did when I herd about the world coming to an end was went on Google to got more information about. Then I asked my parents what was going on. Everybody would tell me that the world was not going to end and that they always make predictions like this. However, I didn't listening to anybody and I had a feeling that it was over. I kept crying and worrying about Harold’s prediction and it really affected my life. When the day came I sat outside for a long time waiting for the world to end and it never did. I was so happy and it made me dislike Harold for getting people upset and his prediction was wrong. I would never ever forget this day. That’s why I believe that this was one of the biggest days in 2011.
