We only have 4 days left! Seriously though, why do people do this? In their heart of hearts, they have to know that Sunday will come and go, and they'll wake up Monday morning, all comfy in their beds.
I can honestly say that I live my life day to day in such a fashion that if I knew this were my last day or week or whatever I would not do anything different (other than not bother to pay my bills, maybe, knowing that there'd be no point; and maybe to retire for at least a week!). I would probably go out munching on chips and ranch dip while watching the universe's final credits scroll past.
So even if I had the slightest reason to give the least bit of credence to such doomsday predictions, it would largely be unactionable information to me.
The reason these end-of-days prophecies gain any traction is that people fear they have unfinished business with god and/or with each other.
Reminds me of a card I got from my brother that I still have on the bulletin board next to my workstation ... it depicts a couple of dinosaurs standing on a rock to escape the water, and Noah's Ark sailing away in the distance. One dino says to the other, "Crap! Was that TODAY?"
