A number of Christians are upset with Harold Camping (see here and here for examples) because he has predicted the Rapture before and has always been wrong. He is batting 1.000 - just in the wrong direction! Other Christians worry, rightly in my view, that Harold Camping's highly public but failed predictions portray the entire religion in a bad light.
Harold Camping has always been wrong about predicting the Rapture (and always will be) because there is no chance that there has been a Rapture in the past, there is no Rapture happening now, nor will there ever be a Rapture in the future. Only one simple reason is needed to account for this: there is no God.
Harold Camping's failed predictions are a stark reminder of the gullibility and superstition that underlie religion. Without realizing it, he is doing the world a great favor.
