Missed Opportunity

I'm so out of touch. From this morning's local paper:

Michael Brigmond, Donald Lance and John Massey Jr. believe the end of the world is at hand. [...]

The three ministers are among the featured speakers at a four-day "End Time Prophecy Conference" at the Redemption Church of Christ of the Apostolic Faith in Troy, where Massey is the pastor.

Dammit, why doesn't anyone tell me these things. I mean, here we went and planned to have dinner with my parents tonight in Oneonta, and go see some Shakespeare up in Saratoga tomorrow. We're driving all over New York for entertainment, when we have crazy people right in our own back yard...

Your "Paging Fred Clark" moment:

These Christian ministers follow a particularly literal interpretation of the Bible.

Lose the "-ly", and you'd be closer. I'd probably like to see scare quotes around "literal" as well, but YMMV.
