Most concerning is when they attempt to commit homicide in the process. These groups usually send out a "send us all your money now" message mixed with serious scare tactics. What is truly scary is that several people _are_ committing all their money and a great deal of time to this: http://www.christianpost.com/news/christian-leaders-respond-to-campings-may-21-rapture-prediction-50275/ What will they be capable of attempting when they realize it was all a ruse? What I find alarming is our ability as human beings to believe something so convincingly we will give all our effort toward a "cause" that is ultimately misguided.
