I see it as what happens in the medical field sometimes. Some zealot doctor makes a lot of noise and gets his findings published. Turns out he was wrong or falsified his findings to suit his intended purpose or some agenda. Now the public scrutinizes all doctors based on this one idiot. The well-meaning, legitimate doctors get a bad rep for a while and the public is confused.

Last Friday (before "Judgement Day")...CNN did a story on the folks spreading the news about Judgement Day. One retired guy they interviewed spent around $140,000 of his retirement money to help spread the word (there's $140,000 down the drain)!

He also admitted that the $140,000 he spent wasn't all of his retirement account (apparently he held back some $$$ just in case)!;)
