Don’t bother telling a local Biblical scholar that Judgement Day is coming on Saturday – he’s not buying it.
Wilfrid Laurier University religious studies professor, Michel Desjardins, is responding to a claim by a California-based Christian organization, that the day of reckoning is set for May 21st.
Desjardins tells 570 News that all tales of the end times, are created in the human imagination. He says there’s as much truth in an end times scenario and Judgement Day as there is in the idea that unicorns exist.
The Christian group Family Stations Inc., says following Saturday’s “Judgement Day”, the earth’s destruction will get underway when a devastating earthquake hits Australia and New Zealand, working its way around the globe, killing millions in the process.
The group says chaos will reign until October 21, when God will destroy the planet.
