Harold Camping, May 8, 2011

Harold Camping embarrassed? The situation, a little awkward? Are you kidding? The media mogul hit it out of the park last week milking the “rapture industrial complex.”

What makes the “after” shot so great is that it captures Camping in a little rapture session with his real deity, the glowing box.

Harold Camping declined to immediately comment to The Associated Press but said he’ll make a full statement in a broadcast through his Oakland-based Family Radio International)
