It's a win-win situation
As I was explaining to my room-mate, this "the Rapture is happening on May 21, 2011" nonsense is a win-win situation.
Either....
1) The Rapture occurs, and I am one of those 'raptured' (which would be highly unlikely, but bear with me), and I don't have to deal with this crap anymore. (aka a 'win')
2) The Rapture occurs, and I am not one of those 'raptured', which means I don't have to deal with a segment of the population (those that were 'raptured') any more.
Plus the side benefit of the schadenfreude of watching those who thought they should have been 'raptured' but weren't.
or
3) The Rapture doesn't happen (by and far the most likely, approaching 100%), and I get the schadenfreude of pointing and laughing at those sad fuckwits who thought that JEEEEEEEEEESUS was coming for them on May 21.
(On another plus note, May 21st is a Saturday, so regardless, there's going to be some interesting things said in some churches the next day.)

The conditions for Jebus's return as outlined in the book haven't yet been met.
Things are s'posed to get way worse before he floats down to save us all with his magic unicorn powers.
