Oh Yeah, World’s Gonna End. Again.


We have until the 23rd this month, people. We’re all scared to death, right? Right? :yawns: Personally, I’d be thrilled if this bit of the christian mythos were true, bye christians! Unfortunately, the christian god(s) remain a no show.

Joe My God has this completely covered, and if you feel like rotting your brain a bit, here’s a video:

    Ha! You beat me to this one!

    I was going to do it at the last minute. Because scientists have somehow not seen nebiru moving around toward us or something. How’s it propelled? Does it have a Velikovsky Drive?

    The kook already has his excuses in, The world as we know it is about to end — again — if you believe this biblical doomsday claim (Washington Post edits in {curly braces}):

    [… David] Meade’s prediction is based largely on verses and numerical codes in the Bible. He has homed in one number: 33.

    Jesus lived for 33 years. The name Elohim, which is the name of God to the Jews, was mentioned 33 times {in the Bible}, Meade told The Washington Post. It’s a very biblically significant, numerologically significant number. I’m talking astronomy. I’m talking the Bible{…} and merging the two.

    And Sept 23 is 33 days since the Aug 21 total solar eclipse, which Meade believes is an omen.

    Um, kook, solar eclipses can be predicted with considerable accuracy for a rather long time. The main thing one is a sign of is Newtonian orbital physics, except perhaps to those who have trouble with the concepts “Earth not flat” and “Earth orbits Sun”.

    Back to excuses already issued:

    […]
    Meade said he’s not saying the world will end Saturday. Instead, he claims, the prophesies in the Book of Revelation will manifest that day, leading to a series of catastrophic events that will happen over the course of weeks.

    The world is not ending, but the world as we know it is ending, he said, adding later: A major part of the world will not be the same the beginning of October.
    […]

    In a few weeks something will have happened! So I’m right!! All praise numerology!!!

    Oh, that’s still perfectly doable! After all, it’s 5 days away, people get busy, they forget, or didn’t hear about the first or third times around. Hell, by the time doomsday arrives, I’ll have forgotten posting this. So I’d say a last minute post is good.

    NASA has been debunking this nonsense for ages. They must want to throttle all the doomsayers.

    A last hour-or-so post written in Tongues® would be better.
    Give us all some time with google translate.

    I don’t mind the world ending again but I wish it would come back in better shape than last time.
