ALAMEDA, CALIF.—California preacher Harold Camping said Monday his prophecy that the world would end was off by five months because Judgment Day actually will come on October 21.

Camping, who predicted that 200 million Christians would be taken to heaven Saturday before the Earth was destroyed, said he felt so terrible when his doomsday prediction did not come true that he left home and took refuge in a motel with his wife. His independent ministry, Family Radio International, spent millions — some of it from donations made by followers — on more than 5,000 billboards and 20 RVs plastered with the Judgment Day message.

But Camping said that he's now realized the apocalypse will come five months after May 21, the original date he predicted. He had earlier said Oct. 21 was when the globe would be consumed by a fireball.

Now he's just chasing his losses, he should know when to stop. He should also probably start with updating his website.

Wait until October to hear his next prediction. It's very convenient when the only way to fullfill his prophecy is for all the witnesses including himself to be dead.

It would be funny if he actually died on October 21.

Harold Camping, the doomsday predictor who said the end of the world would come on May 21, has suffered a stroke this week, sending him to the hospital with a speech impairment.

The radio evangelist who garnered media attention after predicting the end of the world, suffered a stroke on his right side, a neighbor said.
