Wow! Thanks to the cRapture, Camping & Family Radio now worth about $120 million
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/05/22/may-21-judgment-day-may-22_n_865298.html

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. In recent months, followers have given generously to his company, which runs 66 radio stations in the U.S. and is worth at least $120 million.

On Sunday, Evans said Family Radio's assets "far outweigh its liabilities," and that it will "certainly do everything it can to take care of people." But he said that there has been no decision on giving money back to donors.

In 2009, the last year Family Radio publicly released a tax return, the group reported $18.4 million in income from contributions and $1 million from investments and other income. It spent $36.7 million and employed 348 people paid a total of more than $9 million in wages and benefits. Camping has said he has worked without pay for several years.

Articles have noted that the station's lease runs through 2023 and that several employees were planning last week to show up to work on Monday


$120 MILLION DOLLARS???!!! Not only has this asshole ignored Matthew 24:36 (which Jesus says we won't ever know when the end of the world will happen) but I guess he ignores Matthew 19:24 (that it's easier for a Camel to go thru the eye of a Needle than a rich man to get into the kingdom of heaven).

Someone needs to sue this asshole for false advertising or at least take away his non-profit tax status.
