'Rapture' apocalypse prediction sparks atheist reaction
US atheists are to hold parties in response to an evangelical broadcaster's prediction that Saturday will be "judgement day".
The Rapture After Party in North Carolina - "the best damned party in NC" - is among the planned events.
Harold Camping, 89, predicts that Jesus Christ will return to earth on Saturday and true believers will be swept up, or "raptured", to heaven.
He has used broadcasts and billboards to publicise his ideas.
He says biblical texts indicate that a giant earthquake on Saturday will mark the start of the world's destruction, and that by 21 October all non-believers will be dead.

Which reminds me - young eh is very coy when it comes to whether he is one of those American Christians who believe in 'rapture' - that he'll disappear one day in a poof!
