This unlikely charismatic leader of the Family Radio syndicate has caused genuine fear in the minds of many millions who are terrified they won’t be “raptured” on May 21. They are afraid they will be left behind to experience an enormous worldwide earthquake that is thousands of times more powerful than anything ever experienced.
According to Camping, the day begins a five-month period that will destroy all life on our planet and culminate on Oct. 21, 2011, in the annihilation of the entire universe.
On May 22, Clovice A. Lewis Jr. will deliver a sermon at the Unitarian Universalist Community of Lake County entitled “May 22, 2011 – A Day to Celebrate.”
Lewis passionately repudiates what he says is a “neo-Calvinistic theology of death and self-loathing that has no relevance in the modern era.”
He writes, “My opinion is that if the writers of the Bible knew what we know now about our place in this vast universe, with its statistically uncounted numbers of other life forms – if they knew about the obvious evolutionary processes in the cosmos, its age and composition, and the quirky realities of the quantum realm – then they would have been inspired to create an entirely different kind of theology. I doubt they would concoct a story that is so earth-centered as to predict the destruction of the entire universe on Oct. 21, 2011 simply because we human beings angered God.”
All are invited to join the Unitarian Universalists in what promises to be a “spirited” discussion of the apocalyptic religious mindset. The service starts at 10 a.m. at the Kelseyville Senior Center on 5245 Third St. Childcare is provided and all are welcome.

All community members are invited to attend in support of this year’s graduating class. Although baccalaureate services are held for graduating classes from high schools and colleges around the world people frequently misunderstand or simply do not know the purpose of baccalaureate services and of their significant history in our nation.
We would like to share a little about them now, as a part of our invitation for you to attend.
The Baccalaureate Service has been one piece of the graduation “rite of passage” since the 15th century. The service is for the graduates but, it is very different from a graduation ceremony.
Graduation is essentially an ending, it marks the end of a particular course of study, in this case high school.
Baccalaureate is a beginning, it is the sending forth of the graduate with the blessing of their community.
Graduation is an academic achievement.
Baccalaureate is a moral challenge.
It brings to mind the words of George Washington, “Happiness and moral duty are inseparable.” This service is meant to charge the graduates to forge the way into the future – not resting on their laurels but advancing a life dedicated to learning, wisdom and morality to find the happiness President Washington spoke of.
For the first several hundred years the service was presented in Latin to testify to the erudition of the graduates; those who attend this year will be pleased to note that the service will be in English.
UCP is located at 745 N. Brush St. in Lakeport. The service will begin at 6 p.m. and conclude by 7 p.m. All are welcome.
