judgement day

[lordblazer]

I read about the "two Popes 'till the end of the world" thing. Its stupidity boggled my mind. People were like, "Dude! This prophecy lists the exact names of all the Popes!"

Then I look into it and see that the "exact names" are things like "De labore solis". Color me unimpressed. It's the same old confirmation biased nonsense that every so-called prophecy relies on. People have been looking at prophecies and claiming the end is nigh for well over 1,000 years. So far, we've turned out pretty good.

As an added bonus, here's my prophecy for the future: The next 18 presidents will be old white males. Then the world explodes. Have fun!

Teh world explodes after the next 4 presidents which will be old white males and republicans at that

Here's my prediction -- This thread will be filled with spam.
The Earth will be destroyed to make room for a space superhighway.
The final human discovers that the entire planet was made for mice.
People still predict doomsday. It never comes.

if the world ends it ends. I tend not too worry about stuff like that because there isnt much to be done about it from where im sitting. If it ends due to a final battle taking place between Heaven and hell, with demons and angels fighting in the streets, then at least there'll be something cool to watch!

Tabloid fodder and only that. People have been predicting the end for years. I have the strange feeling Nostradamus and other "prophets' were on LSD or just were really bad poets.

I figure if the world really is going to end soon there's not much we can do about it, and it won't matter once we all get wiped out, so why worry about it?

This poor planet needs a rest anyway.

Actually, it's a known phenomena that as people get older, time seems to pass faster. Don't know why that works like that. Presumably due to brain structuring. But older people get bored less easily, and other stuff. Hence children are always so hyper and stuff in comparison to adults.
