Could we all just agree not to make up any more apocalypse predictions?

We are zero for several thousand at this point and there's no sense in beating a dead horse, as it were. Let's just make the world a better place instead of crossing our fingers and hoping it will all fix itself via explosive decompression.

Something about a boy crying wolf, yeah?

    Dude, it's not the Christians that are making them up. It's the cult leaders, the doomsday preppers, and the History Channel (who got a lot of viewership out of trumping this one up.)

    Jesus said that no one will know the day or hour of his return. People that follow Jesus ALWAYS ignore these dumb doomsday predictions -- from the great convergence (80's) to the new millennium bug (2000) to the Mayan calendar (2012), followers of Jesus have said they are all stupid.

    This would be nice too see but it will never happen because their are a lot of false Prophets and Apostles and even False Christs out their who want too make it famous and it matters not how many people they harm in the process. Merry Christmas -Jesus Christ

    i could no longer disagree with the above quote greater. Nostradamus is credited with some predictions, yet no longer each and every little thing he "observed" got here to bypass, and he even is quoted as saying that basically because of the fact he observed it did no longer mean it replaced into inevitable. of direction some one ought to dig up his grave if Nostradamus already gave the date; could no longer that individual basically wait till the appointed time? Human historical past is crammed with large wars and organic failures; we don't prefer an oracle to foretell that. of direction undesirable issues will take place, basically as they consistently have. as a techniques because of the fact the Mayan calendar is going, maximum Mayan pupils provide little credence to the concept that the Mayans predicted the top of the international. At maximum, they (the Mayans) have been only declaring that throughout the time of accordance to their reckoning of time, an new age might start up in 2012. What does that particularly mean? Y2K replaced into meant to be one in each and every of those enormous deal, and it replaced into in basic terms because of the fact we created one in each and every of those hysteria surrounding it. What with reference to the celebrities aligning? How precisely have been the celebrities aligned throughout the time of the large extinction events of the earth? To our maximum suitable information, mass extinctions have been led to by utilising asteroids, volcanic interest, and modifications interior the ambience, yet no longer by utilising alignments of distant stars. don't be apprehensive of 2012. notice of world warming and climate replace and the thank you to maximum suitable stay on the financial device, yet do no longer fixate on dates that are relativley meaningless. there is not any longer something magical with reference to the year 2012 in context of the billions of years of earth historical past.

    _I_'m all for that, but millions out there aren't. They prefer the fame, even though they don't get any name fame besides with their friends.

    I think you'll have difficulty getting the christians to agree to this.
