Seriously, CNN told me so. There's also a billboard for it right down the street from my house.

They're wearing shirts with the word AWESOME written in Impact on them?
They're not Christians. They're internet trolls. I am onto their games. :colbert:
I think they're jealous of the aliens.
Kind of a waste of fossil fuels. At least it's a little entertaining.

Some ambassadors look for good corners to claim, as does a man dressed as a chicken who is here to announce his own awesome news: the opening of a nearby restaurant.

A pirate ship rolls up the street, blaring the hip-hop hit, "Party Like a Rockstar," by the Shop Boyz. College students bump and grind, raise their hands in the air and toss back beers. Two young men embrace in a passionate kiss.
On the other side of the parade route, 7-year-old Arianna is dancing, too. She's beside her sister, pressed against the barricade, screaming and reaching for flying beads. She's laughing. She's in the moment. She's being a kid.
Behind her stands her father, his face serious, his arms crossed.
Damn I have a doctors appointment that day
I always wonder why the people do this kind of thing. It seems kind of detrimental to their cause. They want people to... repent? To give themselves to God before then, because that's all the time they have left? To magically believe because omg world is ending?
Firstly, if they don't believe now, why would they believe because you threw a date the world is ending on? They don't believe that's going to happen any day soon so why would a specific day in the next year suddenly change their mind?
Secondly, if they do happen to change the mind of someone, and they suddenly do believe... then on May 22nd, 2011, won't they be given yet another reason not to believe in the future?
Urgh.
Some people just want to be a part of something bigger than themselves. It's kind of sad.
From what I've read and understand from the Bible, it's pretty straightforward. I don't recall ever seeing this date stamped in there.
Personally, I'd rather not know when I'm going to die. I don't need that kind of stress, man.
I was wondering when another group of doomsday prophets was going to appear.
It seems like God became shy after he finished a long phase of openly chit-chatting or killing everybody. Now he chooses random people to drive around and say stuff with no proof rather just do it himself. I feel like he really could use a nice pep talk to return his self-esteem.
(SPOILER)The Two Towers, Chapter 1
Doomsday party anyone? From tomorrow until said date that I'm not paying attention to because its complete :bou::bou::bou::bou: and these people are ridiculous. :beer:
Again, I don't believe God is this smighty douchebag these guys are making him out to be. I think, all God wants to smurfing do, is sit back, have a coke, and watch Friends. :colbert:
I think you mean The Apocalypse Party.
If the end of the world is in May, why do I have canned peaches that expire in 2015?
Those peaches will be eaten by Super Muties.
God gets to eat my peaches n cream?
Little known fact, God smurfing loves peaches.
Oh no. The world is going to end again.
Personally I more of a Mayan calender guy.
Hell, my phone calender is a weekly calender, so every Saturday night I have just a little bit of a freak out. I'm certainly not looking forward to that ominous date when my wall calender runs out :(
In some ways I don't really care.
In all ways I don't really care.
If the world ends in my lifetime I'll take solace in the fact that no one else is going to survive either.
Though the thought of humanity being wiped away so easily is a bit of a disturbing one.
LOL but yes, impact is the source of all trolling.
I actually agree with you on this to an extent, however there is one fundamental flaw in the argument, well actually it's a fundamental flaw in their argument to make us repent for past sins. God is supposedly in the eyes of the Christian Church all forgiving. If God is all forgiving in the eyes of the church then really we don't actually need to repent for all our sins are already forgotten.
If God is truly all powerful and thats a big if and if he rooted for the Stormtroopers then the Stormtroopers would win end of.
Now really if the worlds going to end in our lifetimes is there any point in worrying about it? Really, the world is going to get destroyed. We don't have interstellar spaceships capable of evacuating the place or even of building one in time to save less than a measly 1%. If the Earth was going to be destroyed by natural occurrence say, Armageddon style (the movie, alternatives include Deep Impact basically an asteroid/comet smashing in to the Earth) then we would know about the event taking place several weeks in advance and all normal life would probably grind to a tremendous halt and we could just live life like there will be no tomorrow in x many days time. In which case I would probably spend my last days doing things with my friends and say smurf my job, smurf taxes because Death is more than certain.
If however the world is simply going to get destroyed by an all powerful being who is acting like a douche because we don't believe he exists anymore then he's hardly going to advertise the fact he's destroying the world and if he did advertise it and demand our affections and belief then I would say he doesn't deserve it because it's taking our right to free will away from us and that he can go ahead and smurfing kill me because I will never beg him for my existence or exist in a state where my will is meaningless.
Simple really.
