GoDaddy.com CEO Under Fire for Killing African Elephant
Godaddy.com CEO Bob Parsons has convinced himself that he's a humanitarian. I think he's got a long way to go before he lives up to that self-billing. He's in the news today because he traveled to Zimbabwe recently to shoot an elephant for a trophy and then released a video in which he is happily grinning over his conquest. Now the man known for racy Super Bowl ads is spinning his version of the event and trying to morph this selfish act of slaughter into some selfless act of charity.
He shot the elephant at night, and claims it was a "problem elephant." It happened to be a bull elephant with sizeable tusks, just the type that trophy hunters like to kill. He seems to be a rather obsessive trophy hunter; one other self-produced video on the web shows him wounding and later killing a leopard, and the current edition of Safari Club International's magazine shows an array of animal heads mounted on his wall as trophies.
If he wants to help the people of Africa, I suggest he spend a day with Oprah Winfrey or Bill Gates and learn how real charitable work on the continent is done. They've invested of their time and considerable wealth to promote education, housing, nutrition, and public health. And last time I checked, they didn't leave a trail of animal victims they've personally slain at the end of their visit. If he wants to help people keep elephants out of crop fields, he should fund the building of solar-powered fences like those successfully used for this purpose in neighboring South Africa. My guess is Mr. Parsons went to Africa to shoot an elephant, and perhaps some other creatures, and then tried to find some high-sounding rationale for his gambit.
I've heard this kind of excuse-making from trophy hunters before. In fact, in my book, The Bond, to be released on April 5, I recount the rhetorical gymnastics and whitewashing of a killing spree also in southern Africa by trophy hunter Ken Behring, who shot several endangered elephants in one of his safaris. Like Parsons, he claimed he did the killing for the good of the community, identifying the animals as "problem elephants." It turns out that wildlife authorities in Mozambique had a different take on the matter, and they wanted Ken Behring to leave their country without delay.
HSUS has about 650 domain names with GoDaddy.com. I've instructed our staff to find another host for them. We don't like doing business with a company with a leader like Parsons. I hope you'll think about following suit. No one needs to kill elephants either to show his manhood or to do humanitarian work.

GoDaddy.com founder defends elephant-hunting video
(CNN) -- The CEO of GoDaddy.com on Friday defended an online video that shows him shooting and killing an elephant in Zimbabwe.
"It takes a guy like me" to protect villagers' crops from rogue elephants, he said.
Bob Parsons, founder of the Scottsdale, Arizona-based web-hosting service, posted the graphic video on his Twitter account on March 14. The footage, shot March 8, shows him hunting an elephant on a farm and posing with a shotgun beside its corpse.
Then, it shows locals crowding around the dead animal and cutting off pieces of its meat.
Parsons said he killed the animal for the good of local farmers whose crops are often destroyed by elephants.
"They would say 'please come back,' " he said, arguing the measure is an effective way to protect crops and feed hungry local residents.
The video shows him walking through a field of flattened sorghum plants, which he said had been crushed by roaming elephants.
The reason he posted the video, Parsons said, is because he wants "people to know what goes on over there."
"There were people who walked 25 miles to get to that elephant," he said, referencing a food crisis that has often plagued developing countries.
But critics call his methods extreme.
The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals initiated an online boycott of GoDaddy.com and its services until Parsons "stops shooting animals," according to the organization's website.
Parsons' own website has also been inundated by negative comments about the video.
"A lot of the people who are upset about this are animal lovers," Parsons said. "Their heart is in the right place but they just don't understand the situation."
He called the fact that the elephant meat provided food for the people "a bonus."
"They literally have nothing and they're on the brink of starvation," he said.
Parsons has traveled to Zimbabwe for several years, but only last year began hunting elephants at the request of local farmers, he said.
Elephant experts say it is not illegal to kill rogue elephants in Zimbabwe.
Parsons said he has killed five elephants.
PETA rejected Parsons' explanation, with the organization's president, Ingrid Newkirk, releasing a statement saying, "If Bob Parsons really wanted to help African villagers, he would use his money to promote one of the many effective, nonlethal methods available to protect crops -- not act like a little boy with a gun."
In a press release, PETA said it is pulling its business from GoDaddy.com, and the group labeled Parsons "Scummiest CEO of the Year."
Meanwhile, asked if the PETA boycott had affected GoDaddy.com's business, company spokeswoman Elizabeth Driscoll said, "There has been no significant change in business."

GoDaddy.com CEO Fights to Explain Elephant Shooting
In this screenshot of Parsons' hunting video posted on the Video.me website, the GoDaddy.com CEO shoots an elephant bull in Zimbabwe.
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – GoDaddy.com CEO Bob Parsons scrambled to explain his motives Friday after a video he put on Twitter of himself killing an elephant in Zimbabwe went viral -- leading to calls for a boycott from animal-rights groups.
In the video, Parsons and a team of others shoot an elephant they claim was destroying farmers' crops in the area.
"They've been here three nights in a row, we're hoping they come back for a fourth. And if they do, well, we're gonna be here to greet 'em," Parsons says with evident relish. The team then waits up at night for the elephants to come. When they do Parsons shoots one of them as an accompanying screen graphic says "Bob Parsons fires again. Both shots hit home."
The CEO can then be seen smiling as he stands over the elephant with his gun before another scene shows local villagers hacking the animal to bits, all while wearing orange GoDaddy.com hats. The scene is accompanied by AC/DC's "Hell's Bells" music.
"When you see me smiling in that picture, I'm smiling because I'm relieved no one was hurt, that the crop was saved, and that these people were going to be fed -- the type of smile when you get a good report card or achieve a goal," Parsons told Mashable Thursday.
"I've been going to Africa for six years," he said, "and I progressively became aware of the elephant situation and what a problem it is for the locals."
Parsons explained to the tech website that far from being an endangered species, elephant herds in Zimbabwe are abundant and a nuisance to local farmers who face the threat of starvation on a constant basis due to elephants destroying their crops.
Non-violent solutions such as fences, fires and loud noises are not enough to ward them off, he explained.
"This farmer was desperate," Parsons said. "He couldn't get the herd out of his field. He asked us to come and deal with it."
However, animal-rights groups were not buying it, claiming that Parsons was using a "flimsy" excuse to disguise his passion for hunting big game.
"Parsons is hiding behind the lame claim that killing elephants helps farmers in Africa whose crops are damaged by the animals," People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) said on its website.
"In fact, there are ample effective and nonlethal methods to deter elephants from crops, including using chili-infused string and beehives on poles to create low-cost 'fences.' Instead of coming up with flimsy excuses for killing these highly intelligent and social animals, Parsons should use his wealth to fund humane solutions to human/elephant conflicts."
The group said that it had closed its account with GoDaddy as a result of its CEO's actions and encouraged supporters to do the same.
Rival companies also saw an opening to bash a competitor. Los Angeles-based NameCheap.com was offering special time-limited deals to customers who switched over to their service in protest, saying that it would donate 20 percent of the revenue from new accounts to the Save The Elephants charity.
"All of us at Namecheap were very disturbed by this video," the company said. "Elephants are an endangered species and hunting these for any reason is something we feel strongly against."
Parsons, an ex-Marine who served in Vietnam, told Mashable that while he understood the concern of critics, the situation was more complicated than it appeared.
"These people look at this from the context of being Americans," he said. "We're well-fed and isolated from the process of growing and butchering meat. We see this, and we're horrified. Their hearts are in the right place, but they just don't understand what's going on over there."
GoDaddy.com, a private company founded by Parsons in 1997, operates more than 46 million domain names.

Christian radio network warns of Judgment Day on May 21
A California-based Christian radio network is using the Internet, thousands of billboards and even RV caravans to warn of overwhelming evidence that Judgment Day will arrive May 21.
The message is being spread by Family Stations, a 53-year-old non-profit, non-commercial, Christian radio network with 66 outlets. The billboards -- 1,200 in the USA and 2,000 worldwide -- do not mince words, promising in splashy colors: "The Bible guarantees it!"
The prediction says the world will be rocked by great earthquakes beginning at 6 p.m. ET and continue through Oct. 21. Believers will be called to the heavens.
Watch the The Newark Star-Ledger's interview with a businessman who is a believer but has had a hard time convincing his wife of 45 years.
The Orlando Sentinel reports that Family Radio has sponsored five caravans of followers who have traveled the country since October passing out leaflets about the big day.
Here are some key excerpts from the FAQ portion of the network's press packet:
What signs precede the Day of Judgment?
Jesus warned of several spiritual signs, such as the complete degradation of the Christian church, the devastating moral breakdown of society, the re-establishment of National Israel in 1948, the emergence of the 'Gay Pride Movement', and the complete disregard of the Bible in all of society today as direct evidence of His return.What if May 21 ends and nothing occurs?
The biblical evidence is too overwhelming and specific to be wrong. Christ's people can look with great confidence to this date because God promises His "beloved" He will not come upon them as a thief in the night.
God in His mercy has revealed the vital information needed to know the day. Judgment Day on May 21, 2011, will occur because the Bible declares it. Anyone whom God has not saved will arrive at that day with no hope for salvation. God warns simply the "door will be shut."
As to what qualifies Harold Camping, 89, the network's president and general manager, to make such a huge pronouncement, Family Radio notes he "has been a tireless student of the Bible for over five decades. The tens of thousands of hours he has spent analyzing the Bible has given him a unique perspective of the entirety of Scripture."
The Sentinel reports that Camping, who has a degree in civil engineering, and his followers cite Genesis, which says the flood began on the "17th day of the second month," as key to predicting the approaching Judgment Day. Camping says that translates into May 21, according to his interpretation of the Jewish calendar.
The newspaper notes that about 17 years ago, Camping warned of an apocalypse taking place Sept. 6, 1994. He says he had not completed his biblical research at the time.

Source: Spencer Platt/Getty ImagesBillboards announce, “The Bible Guarantees It”—vans emblazoned with “Christ Returns as Judge” roam highways—missionaries hold placards reading, “The Trumpet is Sounding”—a shaky voice on a radio program proclaims, “Judgment Day is coming.”
The movement spreads. The following grows. Gradually, the world takes notice. Have you?
For several years, a former civil engineer based in California, Harold Camping, has proclaimed that the world will face “Judgment Day” on May 21, 2011.
He has convinced thousands of followers that a “worldwide earthquake” will occur on this day, beginning a hellish period that will culminate with God Himself destroying the planet five months later. Mr. Camping claims that these ideas are all found in the Bible. According to his website:
“On May 21, 2011 two events will occur. These events could not be more opposite in nature, the one more wonderful than can be imagined; the other more horrific than can be imagined.
“A great earthquake will occur the Bible describes it as ‘such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.’ This earthquake will be so powerful it will throw open all graves. The remains of the all the believers who have ever lived will be instantly transformed into glorified spiritual bodies to be forever with God.
“On the other hand the bodies of all unsaved people will be thrown out upon the ground to be shamed.
“The inhabitants who survive this terrible earthquake will exist in a world of horror and chaos beyond description. Each day people will die until October 21, 2011 when God will completely destroy this earth and its surviving inhabitants.”
Should you be alarmed at Mr. Camping’s dire prophecies? Is there any truth to his claims? Does the Bible validate these sensational ideas?
After reading this article, you will know with absolute certainty whether “the end of the world” will arrive this year!
No Man Knows the Hour
Most who write about the Bible, including Mr. Camping, do not realize that this Book interprets itself. The Author of this greatest of books would not leave the most crucial questions, those involving all humanity, subject to human interpretation. He would provide clues—necessary vital keys!—to understanding the large portions of His Word devoted to future events.
God would provide proof of all the things He says!
The Bible commands its readers: “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good” (I Thes. 5:21). This certainly applies to prophecy. You need not accept the opinion of one more ill-informed, self-appointed “expert.”
Tragically, most who read the Bible remain in near total ignorance of its meaning, including being completely unable to recognize the sequence and timing of its prophecies. And this is on top of not truly comprehending what any of them actually means!
So many just cannot untangle the maze of what happens when, as well as where and to whom—and why.
The idea of the end of the world has been a subject of great speculation, ridicule, general discussion, fascination and fancy for 2,000 years—ever since Jesus Christ announced He would return to Earth. With opinions everywhere, there has been an explosion of literature presenting popular scenarios, ideas, theories, suppositions and interpretations of what will occur just before Christ’s Return.
For Christians, the “Judgment Day” question begins with what Jesus said about His Return: “Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man comes” (Matt. 25:13).
If people were reading even such basic verses, they would never worry about May 21, 2011, because no man knows the day of Christ’s Return: “But of that day and that hour knows no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father” (Mark 13:32). This verse alone precludes any man who sets a date for Christ’s Return from being an authority on Scripture—even one who claims to be “a tireless student” and who has spent “tens of thousands of hours…analyzing the Bible.”
What a tragic commentary on the state of people who profess to be Christians—but cannot logically compute such rudimentary understanding. But then, most who profess to follow Christ study little or nothing of what He said.
Get this! Just Mark 13:32, and other similar passages, rule out this date—or any specific date—that might be suggested for Christ’s Return, or a supposed “Judgment Day.”
Next read a section of Jesus’ Olivet prophecy: “The disciples came unto Him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the world [age]?” (Matt. 24:3). His long answer begins with: “Take heed that no man deceive you” (vs. 4).
Jesus goes straight to the biggest problem that would exist at the end. There is an unending and growing number of deceivers at work today. Are their followers taking heed? How many are doing their own research regarding men postulating prophetic scenarios? Mr. Camping’s is only one. There are many others, and more appearing all the time.
The 2011 Impossibility
Based on Mr. Camping’s thinking, mankind is now very deep into what the Bible calls the Great Tribulation—the worst period of human history, which includes the destruction of Jerusalem.
Notice how Christ described this time in the Olivet Prophecy: “For there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people. And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down…” (Luke 21:23-24).
Any thinking person can see this has not yet occurred!
For those who wish to learn what the Bible actually states, David C. Pack, author of The Bible’s Greatest Prophecies Unlocked! – A Voice Cries Out and the foremost authority on Bible prophecy, presents conclusive proof that the world will not end this year:
“Let’s examine whether it is even possible—prophetically—for 2011 to be the end. Follow carefully. We have to establish the timing of certain events.
“Many are familiar with the term ‘Tribulation’ or ‘Great Tribulation.’ The Bible speaks of this event as one of terrible trouble and indescribable horror. Jesus referred to this time as unparalleled in history: ‘For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be’ (Matt. 24:21). The prophet Daniel also speaks of this period in chapter 12, verse 1. Jeremiah references it in a similar way in chapter 30, verse 7.
“The Bible reveals that a certain very specific amount of time must elapse between the start of the Great Tribulation and the Return of Jesus Christ—or ‘the end of the age.’ So understand. If it can be proven that there are not enough years in God’s plainly revealed timeline for 2011 to be the end, then all the hysteria is for nothing!
“Numerous passages explain that the Tribulation lasts 2½ years, followed by the year-long Day of the Lord. Together, these events last 3½ years, fulfilling 1,260 days before Christ’s Return.
“Let’s understand the implications! If the Great Tribulation were to begin today there is not enough time for May 21, 2011 to be the ‘beginning of the end.’ But it is also important to realize that certain biblically described pre-conditions that must lead up to the Tribulation are not, however close they now are, yet here.
“So then, just the 1,260 days—again, were it to begin today—would greatly overshoot May 21, 2011. It is therefore absolutely impossible for this date to be the end of the world! All fear of it can disappear! None need be afraid of this fictional doomsday!
“It is possible, however, that something of significance could happen on around this date because the demon world has a general idea of prophecy, and these fallen spirits do everything in their power to thwart God’s Master Purpose for mankind. They could pull some trick or stunt to confuse the gullible.”
Will the World End?
Mr. Pack continues: “But what about the Return of Christ? Will this usher in the end of planet Earth in October 2011? In other words, will all people alive today die in the fulfillment of end-time prophecies—as so many seem to almost assume? The answer is a resounding NO! And here is proof.
“When Jesus described world conditions leading to His Return, He stated, ‘Except those days should be shortened [cut short], there should no flesh be saved’ (Matt. 24:22).
“Some religionists believe the phrase ‘no flesh be saved’ refers to spiritual salvation. But that is not what Jesus is talking about. Rather, that unless God cuts the Tribulation short, no human beings—‘no flesh’—would survive. The human race would become extinct if Christ did not return. The implication is that He will return before this happens. For those who believe God, this is further proof that 2011 could not possibly end human existence.
“Other prophecy writers speak of the ‘end of the world’—that the earth itself will supposedly be destroyed. This could not be further from the truth. This idea often stems from a misunderstanding of Christ’s disciples asking Him for a sign of the ‘end of the world.’ The Greek word (aion) translated world means ‘age.’ The disciples were asking when the period of man’s rule would end—and the kingdom of God would be established. They well understood the many Old Testament prophecies that speak of the Messiah setting up the kingdom of God on Earth.
“God’s servants understand the basic framework of His overall prophetic timetable and plan. They are not confused about ‘what happens next,’ once certain prophecies begin to take place. Many prophecies involve a tremendous amount of understanding that God makes available, and with all necessary details. They understand exactly what lies ahead for all mankind, and for themselves—if they are faithful.
“May 21, 2011, is NOT the end! Do not fear this date! Human beings will never be wiped out. All the hysteria is for nothing!
“Countless verses could have been cited to disprove the 2011 deception. Scripture makes plain that 2011 does not mark the ‘end of the world,’ and that such ideas are preposterous to the point of almost humorous—were it not for the fear and confusion they spawn.”
Plain Warnings
Make no mistake: Harold Camping is a prophet—a false prophet. Every scripture he cites—without exception—is twisted, mangled and butchered. The Bible warns of such “evil men and seducers” (II Tim. 3:13) in our time, but like all of its other warnings, most do not heed.
False prophets prey on people’s natural fascination with the future. The apostle John warned of them: “Believe not every spirit, but try [test] the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world” (I John 4:1). Jesus added this warning: “And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many” (Matt. 24:11). Now ask again: How many worry about being deceived? Most ignore these passages. But this comes with a price.
Understand. God calls such possessors of “enlightened” knowledge “angels of light” (II Cor. 11:13-14). Such “angels” are only too willing to share their “knowledge.”
Jesus also warned, “Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves” (Matt. 7:15).
It is not always easy to detect these deceivers. None of them wear signs exposing who they are. They are smooth operators, but their teachings tear people’s understanding as wolves rip prey.
How can you tell a false prophet? Let Jesus answer: “You shall know them by their fruits...” (Matt. 7:16). And four verses later, “By their fruits you shall know them” (vs. 20).
Many are aware that Mr. Camping falsely predicted “Judgment Day” would occur in 1994. This could not occur with a prophet of God. Notice: “We have also a more sure word of prophecy...” (II Pet. 1:19). God’s prophecies are sure. They never miss. Not one!
Here is God’s command regarding prophets: “And if you [ask] in your heart, How shall we know the word which the Lord has not spoken?” (Deut. 18:21). God’s answer is, “When a prophet speaks in the name of the Lord, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the Lord has not spoken, but the prophet has spoken it presumptuously: you shall not be afraid of him” (vs. 22).
This passage reveals that men can presume to speak for God. This is very serious to the God of the Bible. It should also be serious to you. You must know if God sent a man—or if the man sent himself.
The true prophet Ezekiel recorded, “Son of man [Ezekiel], prophesy against the prophets of Israel...and say you unto them that prophesy out of their own hearts, Hear you the word of the Lord; thus says the Lord God; woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing” (13:2-3).
Think of the confusion and fear that Mr. Camping’s presumptuous prophecies have engendered. But God declares, “you shall not be afraid of him” (Deut. 18:22).
Again, this is serious to God—and it should be to you!
Easy to Disprove!
Elijah, a true prophet of God, was not afraid to mock the prophets of Baal (I Kings 18). Modern false prophets are deserving of the same. Mr. Camping’s ignorant blather contains so many blatant errors and ridiculous ideas that to debunk them one by one would require a very lengthy article—or even a book. However, his ideas are so obviously false and so easy to disprove that most readers will be able to do this for themselves. As false prophets go, he is a rank amateur, and not very effective at his craft.
Here is just one example. Harold Camping suggests that the “Great Multitude” of Revelation 7:9 are those who agree with his Judgment Day teaching: “A multitude of faithful Bible students—that no man can number—agree: the end of this world, beginning on May 21 2011 is established by God’s Word The Holy Bible and God will shortly bring it to pass.”
No serious Bible student could believe this. While Mr. Camping may be sincere, he is deceived and utterly false!
But recognize that Mr. Camping represents the front edge of a coming wave of false prophets who will “wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived” (II Tim. 3:13)—becoming more cunning, persuasive and charismatic. Such men will eventually perform false miracles through the power of the devil who guides them (II Thes. 2:9; Matt. 24:24). But beforehand, the frontrunners will cause many to become jaded to the truth of Bible prophecy—history written in advance.
(Another self-appointed prophet, Ronald Weinland—who believes he and his wife are the Two Witnesses of Revelation 11—also claims the world is deep into the Great Tribulation. Remarkably, he has deluded a growing number of followers with this and other bizarre ideas. This false prophet has set May 27, 2012 as the date of Christ’s Return. Of course, this “computation” is no less ignorant and tragically wrong!)
Let’s look ahead to May 22. There will have been no rapture. No great earthquake. No graves opened. No Judgment Day. Mr. Camping will have only two options: (1) admit that he is a false prophet (highly unlikely), or (2) spin it in some way—claim that his prophecy was fulfilled in some mysterious fashion. Perhaps he will attempt to portray the hundreds of minor earthquakes that normally occur around the world on any given day as a fulfillment of his “worldwide earthquake” prediction. However, he will have a most difficult time trying to explain how other elements of his false prophecy were “fulfilled.” Nevertheless, prepare for the spin!
Source of Real Answers
World events are worsening, leading many to look for answers from the Bible—seeking a source of clarity and authority on God’s Word. Nature abhors a vacuum, and religious entrepreneurs, taking advantage of the situation, seize the opportunity to spew prophetic nonsense. Preying upon people’s ignorance of the Bible, these usually gain a following and material reward besides.
But their wrong motives and lack of knowledge do not negate the very real prophecy contained in the Scriptures—prophecies you can know and understand!
In the Introduction to The Bible’s Greatest Prophecies Unlocked! David C. Pack writes: “Suppose you could know the direction and conclusion of world events—world history—in advance of the outcome. What if you could know the courses of nations before they happen? What if the future of great nations—indeed the greatest nations—could be known? Imagine knowing tomorrow’s biggest headlines before they come to pass, and how events will affect you, and every human being, personally.
“Approximately one-third of the Bible is prophecy—history written in advance. Over four-fifths of this future history is yet to be fulfilled. Tragically, most Bible readers are completely unaware of awesome, impending world events, soon to involve all nations. Vast sections of Scripture are hidden, and remain outside their understanding—completely lost to them. The result is that most simply have no idea what the future holds.
“Many have opinions, but few recognize how to find the answers. Others think they already understand the prophecies of the Bible. The result? They remain ignorant of fascinating, incredible—vital!—knowledge, life-changing knowledge.
“No book you have read, or ever will, on prophecy is like this one. Different from all others on the subject, it is destined to be read by vast numbers—and probably soon.”
If you are serious about learning the truth of the end time, read the most comprehensive book ever written on the subject.
Before May 21 arrives, you can know it is not Judgment Day!

The Prophesied End-Time Revealed
2008 - God's Final Witness
The year 2008 marked the last of God’s warnings to
On December 14, 2008, the First Trumpet of the Seventh Seal of the Book of Revelation sounded, which announced the beginning collapse of the economy of the United States and great destruction that will follow. The next three trumpets will result in the total collapse of the United States, and once the Fifth Trumpet sounds the world will be thrust into WW III.
The Seven Trumpets of the Seventh Seal, as well as the Seven Thunders of the Book of Revelation (which the apostle John saw but was restricted from recording) are revealed in this book.
Many of the prophecies of the Seven Thunders are being fulfilled and will continue to increase in strength and frequency throughout this final three and one-half years of man's self-rule on earth.
The prophecies revealed in this book explain the demise of the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain, and much of western Europe, which will be followed by man's final world war. This last war will be the result of clashing religions and the governments they sway. Billions will die! The destruction of this time will far exceed the very worst times of all human history.
As these events unfold, the world will increasingly become aware of the authenticity of the words in this book and realize that Ronald Weinland has been sent by God as His end-time prophet.
This book is primarily directed to the people of the three major religions of the world (Islam, Judaism and Christianity), whose roots are in the God of Abraham. Ronald Weinland has been sent to all three.

On December 14, 2008, the First Trumpet of the Seventh Seal of the Book of Revelation sounded, which announced the beginning collapse of the economy of the United States and great destruction that will follow. The next three trumpets will result in the total collapse of the United States, and once the Fifth Trumpet sounds the world will be thrust into WW III.
The Seven Trumpets of the Seventh Seal, as well as the Seven Thunders of the Book of Revelation (which the apostle John saw but was restricted from recording) are revealed in this book.
Many of the prophecies of the Seven Thunders are being fulfilled and will continue to increase in strength and frequency throughout this final three and one-half years of man's self-rule on earth.
The prophecies revealed in this book explain the demise of the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain, and much of western Europe, which will be followed by man's final world war. This last war will be the result of clashing religions and the governments they sway. Billions will die! The destruction of this time will far exceed the very worst times of all human history.
As these events unfold, the world will increasingly become aware of the authenticity of the words in this book and realize that Ronald Weinland has been sent by God as His end-time prophet.
This book is primarily directed to the people of the three major religions of the world (Islam, Judaism and Christianity), whose roots are in the God of Abraham. Ronald Weinland has been sent to all three.

21 Reasons Why May 21 Is NOT The End Of The World
Never mind 2012. Rumors are growing that the world will end in 2011.
Those who claim to have knowledge of the situation say "Judgment Day" will take place May 21. A Christian radio network has gone so far to "guarantee" this will happen.
As the date gets closer, the panic has spread. Billboards are being put up and people are walking with signs on the streets. There are even Craigslist ads seeking to make out on the pending fire sale.
But is May 21 really the end? Nope. And we have the top 21 reasons why.
God Talk: Judgement Day is coming, not May 21
Rob kee
Greetings to all in the glorious name of our King Jesus Christ!
In 1992, Harold Camping, a syndicated television preacher operating out of Oakland, California, penned the following words: "The results of this study indicate that the month of September of the year 1994 is to be the time for the end of history." Some 3,500 years earlier, Moses wrote: "[W]hen a prophet speaks in the name of Jehovah, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which Jehovah has not spoken: the prophet has spoken it presumptuously, you need not be afraid of him" (Dt. 18:22).
It is 2011, a decade later, and the world has not ended. Harold Camping may have good intentions, but he is Biblically accountable and he is no prophet.
Numerous other fallacies within his doctrine raise red flags of warning for the true disciple of Christ. There is not enough time to address each issue; I only ask that the Believer in Jesus research this issue in direct correlation with God's Word. Mr. Camping uses many scriptures to justify his "Judgment Day" doctrine so it would be easy to be deceived if we are not basking in His Word and the confirmation of the Holy Spirit in our hearts, as well as through proven, trustworthy teachers of scripture.
The bottom line is that we are to heed the book of Acts, when Jesus tells the disciples gazing into the heavens after His ascension: "Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, which is taken

up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven."
Fellow Believers, we have work to do, a Great Commission to fulfill, and we must focus on the labor at hand! The lost of the world need the glorious message of the Gospel of Christ! We must be diligent about our calling, not falling prey to the whims of emotion and the deception of the enemy that can skew our vision and affix us to dates and times rather than the task of reconciling the world to God.
Jesus is coming back, but to consume ourselves with a specific date is unbiblical, unprofitable, and will tend to breakdown trust from an unbelieving world. What happens when we all wake up the morning after Camping's date of Judgment, May 21, and realize we've been duped again? How will we minister to the lost who have sat by and watched our idiocy? We do not know the exact timing of God's Grace, but we know we are in it and must be busy about His work before this season ends.
Instead of jumping on bandwagons let us follow the counsel of our brother Peter:
"And so, dear friends, while you are waiting for these things to happen, make every effort to be found living peaceful lives that are pure and blameless in his sight. And remember, the Lord's patience gives people time to be saved. This is what our beloved brother Paul also wrote to you with the wisdom God gave him- speaking of these things in all of his letters. Some of his comments are hard to understand, and those who are ignorant and unstable have twisted his letters to mean something quite different, just as they do with other parts of Scripture. And this will result in their destruction.
Take the time to Google "Harold Camping" for yourself and read the plethora of information that invades your browser. Mr. Camping tells us to "Leave the Church", hence discounting all of the Godly men and women who will refute his claims and lead us back to the balanced Gospel of Truth. This is a well used tactic of satan to discredit anyone who would provide opinions and evidence contrary to his own.
There is no accountability in Mr. Camping's methodology, in which his predictions are as loosely tied together as his reasons for the unfulfilled prophecy of 1992 and his unsupported Biblical doctrine.
I do not have all of the answers, but I do have the Spirit of God, along with you who have been called by Christ, through the Grace and Mercy of God, provided by the shed blood of His Son. Pray, fast and seek the Lord through His Word. Make sure you are in a Bible believing church and surround yourself with proven Godly men and women who will act as your counselors. Scripture is clear that in the end times even the very mature may be deceived.
May the grace and mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, Son of our glorious Father, be with us all, and may the Holy Spirit open our eyes! Rest in His completed works and be diligent about His Great Commission!

May 21 Judgment 2011
End of the World 2011
That’s right, all signs point to a May 21 Judgment Day, with the End of the World following just months later on October 21, 2011. Many of the signs of the Apocalypse have already reared their ugly head, warning that the End of Days are coming very soon. Have you noticed the signs that God has given us to prove the Second Coming of Jesus is around the corner?
The bible gives us the seven signs of the Apocalypse, many of which can be noticed in everyday life as we approach May 21, 2011. God gives us the signs of the Apocalypse to let us know that the Rapture, and End of the World are nearing. Here are the seven signs of the Apocalypse with specific examples of each in today’s world.
Signs of the End
- False Prophets
Joel Osteen, Danny Davis, and Mike Murdock are three, of many false prophets that we have seen rise to fame and fortune over the last several years. These false prophets bring teachings that do not correspond with the word of the Bible, and have had a negative effect on Religious culture. They have used the television of their primary avenue to exploit the word of Christ for their own benefit.
The Rapture on May 21 will most likely come and go without saving these three, along with the rest of the False Prophets on this Earth. They will be left behind during Judgement Day, and spend the End of Days begging for forgiveness from Jesus for their sins in hope of being saved by the lord before the End of The World. Don’t worry, we doubt they will join us in Heaven.
- Wars and Rumors of Wars
The recent killing of Osama Bin Laden has sparked debate over the role that Pakistan took in hiding the terrorist from those trying to bring him to justice. Will the United States go to war with Pakistan after interrogating Bin Laden’s wives? Or will the United States turn their war talks on Iran, to finally eliminate them as a Nuclear threat to the world? The End of the World is coming in 2011, but it won’t be because of a Nuclear War.
- Famines
The Mississippi River is flooding. Famine will run rampant in the United States between May 21 and the End of the World on October 21, 2011. Once starvation sets in, everyone affected will recognize the End of The World 2011, and the teachings of Harold Camping will become more widely accepted. The situation caused by the flooding of the Mississippi River will devastate not just the mid-west, but the entire world will feel the effects of the lost crops.
North Korea has faced famine due to a grain deficit this year, and the refugees in Burma were facing starvation just about a year ago. While there have always been hungry people in the world, this is the first time in recent memory that the United States has been threatened by famine. God is trying to give very clear signs that May 21 will be Doomsday for many people.
- Earthquakes
As Los Angeles braces for ‘The Big One,’ which many believe will come on May 21, 2011 – the Earthquakes in Japan are still on everyone’s mind. The massive earthquake that struck Japan may be just a preview of what Los Angeles is expecting, but also serves as a more evidence that the End of The World is coming soon. God will destroy the World after Judgement Day on October 21, 2011.
- Persecutions and Tortures to the Elect
This sign of the Apocalypse specifically refers to the ‘Elect’ who are also known as the true believers in Christ the Lord. The recent persecutions in child molestation cases of Priests, and other high-ranking church officials may in fact be another sign of the May 21 apocalypse. While those persecuted may in fact be guilty of their crimes, the Bible does not specify if they will be tried justly or not. Watch for persecutions of the faithful over the next 10 days as we near the May 21st Judgement Day.
- Lawlessness
Once again, we can point to the recent killing of Osama Bin Laden. The United States did not follow the rules of war when they gave the order to execute the wanted terrorist, rather than attempt to capture and try him as a war criminal. While there may be many Justifications for this particular event, lawlessness, and a lack of consideration for others has clearly grown in the previous years. Notice how people no longer use their blinker when driving, or park between the lines properly in parking lots. These may seem unrelated to the End of the World, but in fact are perfect examples to prove that May 21 will be Judgement Day.
More Signs of May 21 Doomsday
The Bible and Book of Revelations mention many signs that God will provide to let us know that the Second Coming of Jesus will happen soon. May 21 is just 10 days away, and I ask you to keep your eyes open, and report any signs of Judgement Day that you notice. The End of The World will be glorious for some, and devastating for others, and unavoidable for all.

COCA COLA CONSUMPTION + MENTOS = DEATH ???
So what happened when Coca-Cola's merged? Look this video!
Look again!!
After seeing the video you do not rush to decide that the Coca Cola + Mentos same cause of death. You read duku explanation that I took from priyadi.net
If you put Mentos into a bottle of Coca Cola, there will be a blast. Coca Cola (or any soda brand) containing compressed carbon dioxide, confined by the water molecules attract each other. Under normal conditions, the carbon dioxide released into the air would be difficult, because to break the surface tension is the energy required. When inserted into a bottle of Coca Cola, Mentos candy to melt and break the surface tension of this. In addition, the Mentos surface is composed of many tiny holes. This is a gathering place for carbon dioxide molecules. When Mentos is inserted into the bottle of Coca Cola would be a lot of carbon dioxide bubbles. It happened very fast, and increased pressure this sudden push fluid out of the bottle.
So, it's all the explanation. Do not jump to conclusions. Moreover, I once read a blogger writing this phenomenon and malign Coca Cola and Mentos. More ironically relate it to religious matters.
Advice: Do not consume Coca Cola and Mentos candy together!
