Some people are ridiculous and I guess other people are hopeless. If anybody else did this they would be facing criminal charges for fraud but this guy get a pass hiding behind religion.
May 21 'Judgment Day' Believers React To Being Alive On May 22
by Jaweed Kaleem
Like many of those convinced of the Rapture was pending, Ramsey quit his job, donated "a couple thousand" to Harold Camping's Family Radio network and convinced family members to join him to spread news of the Rapture on Manhattan streets. He has to find a new job. So does his mother. His 19-year-old brother, who had quit high school the year prior ("It's pointless to graduate," the brother had said), is thinking of re-enrolling or finding employment.
Lombardi said he is going back to work -- he owns a construction business -- and said he has "no regrets." He added, "I'm not disappointed. I'm still living today." He believes Camping and others must have read the Bible incorrectly.
Camping, who told The Huffington Post last week that May 21 was "no laughing matter," had refused to discuss what he would do with donations if the day passed without event.
Followers like Ramsey and Lombardi said they had few hard feelings toward Camping and still agreed with some of the self-taught preacher's views, such as one that says all churches and denominations have been corrupted.

John Ramsey, 25, holds pamphlets promoting May 21 at 'Judgment Day.' The day passed without event, and now a dejected Ramsey says he faces a "mixed bag."
