end of the world tomarow, 12am may 21st, 2011....

He already did it in '94? Anyway, this is Apocalypse 2.0.

I watched the dude on the tube tonight. For those of us that don't make the cut, there's 5 months of Armageddon to endure.

Okay now if any of you out there feel the rapture has passed you by, do not fret....well unless you actually saw people being raised up in the air, then you got something to fret about. Otherwise keep in mind that this whole prediction of the rapture comes from a single man of questionable sanity that claims to have derived a mathmatical formula from the bible that pinpoints when certain events will happen. There's two problems though, one the bible also teaches that no man will know the day or hour when these things will happen. So it's not likely the bible contains a mathmatical formula that enables those who discover it to defy what the bible teaches. Second and more importantly, like other doomsday profits the guy who came up with this prediction has made earlier predictions that proved wrong. Originally this guy had the rapture happening in the 1990's and when it didn't happen he conveniently discovered he miscalculated the formula and then came up with this date.

So if you think the rapture has happened but have no proof, don't worry it's more likely this guy just miscalculated again.

For me, the scariest thing about all of this is that when it comes to this joker doing it a third time, he will still have followers.

Lets hope he doesn't have folks drinking any weird tasting coolaid.

Since the bible is an interpretation to begin with how much stock can really be put in this guy's math.

Fackin religites and their scare tactics

True enough and let's not forget the multiple edits and revisions to suit various governmental requirements. Who knows, maybe some king had a passage removed that contained a key piece of the formula?

Oh and another very crucial point regarding the rapture. It's not really discussed in the bible. Rather in just the writings of Paul there are some references that sound like the rapture but the actual concept of an event called the rapture is entirely man made fiction derived from Bible fiction.

my dog told me not to worry

Yeah, sad but likely true. Although who knows, historically there have been other prophets like this guy and when things didn't happen the way they were supposed to they got tarred and feathered.

There is a difference between predicting years out, or seeing the signs as it happens.

The flock may not know when their Shepard returns, but they do observe him walking up the path a short time before he arrives.

With that said, I'm not expecting the rapture tomorrow.

6:00pm your time

6:00pm your time

I love the smell of Armageddon in the evening.

"It's the end of the world as we know it" Whoo! hoo!

 

[guest86120975]

lol what happened to the other thread, did it make someone cry?

Apparently so bro. My thread disappeared.

Here's what I'm wondering though. Why would anyone perpetuate this, unless they're benefiting somehow? Who's making green off this shenanigan?

Yeah but when the Shepard is walking up the path, the hour is upon you. But in this case this isn't some guy saying it's happening because of the signs. I do think he has way more people paying attention to him though because modern times in many ways seems like it might be the signs of the end of days.

well friends the end is almost here, its sad but we've had a pretty good run so... I'm thinking about what I want my final toke to be, you know one last rip of the bong right before the end. I'm thinking bogglegum, or maybe a nice blueberry sativa something mellow and uplifting before the world ends...

So with that in mind what would be your toke of choice before the world ends?

Well the guy who is the creator of this prediction has a church whose worth a few years ago was around $120 Million. So there's that and then according to a story I was reading earlier, this guy's church has been spending like crazy doing billboard campaigns, bus ad campagins, radio, tv, etc. So those people have been banking some coin.

 

[gilgahash]

Oh and I do hope the world doesnt end, cause I dont have any bogglegum or blueberry, all I got is a lil bit of trainwreck and some really racy(sketchy) Jack herer I harvested a bit to early...

Oh and just in case I love you jesusallahbuddah......satan?

Don't worry, weed grows freely in Heaven and when we get there I'm sure while toking with us God will ask "Why did you make this illegal and so much more difficult to have and use? I wanted you to use it, that's why I designed your nervous system to interact with it specifically?" Then we'll all look at each other, shrug our shoulders, and then laugh like maniacs

 

[guest86120975]

Well I've been watching the news for the past hour and it looks like the world isn't actually going to end as we've all been fearing...it's apparently just the rapture, where the Jesus people (especially those who gave all their money to someone?) will be taken away but the Earth will still remain and chaos will ensue (or something like that) ,...

Yeah the same guy predicting the rapture is tomorrow also says after the rapture there will be 5 months of torment (what the bible calls the trials and tribulations) and then on October 21, 2011 will be the end of the world and Judgement day.

Kind of ironic that you post that picture today. Did you know Randy Macho Man Savage died in a car accident today? Interesting.

Former wrestler 'Macho Man' Randy Savage dead after car crash ABC News

SEMINOLE --
Well-known former wrestler 'Macho Man' Randy Savage died Friday morning after a car crash in Seminole.

According to the Florida Highway Patrol, Savage, whose legal name is Randy Mario Poffo, was driving west on Park Boulevard near 113th Street North when his 2009 Jeep Wrangler went out of control just before 9:30 a.m.

The vehicle went over the raised median in the road, crossed the eastbound lanes, jumped the curb and smashed head on into a tree. Savage was taken to Largo Medical Center where he later died.

Officials said the passenger in the car, believed to be Savage's wife, suffered only minor injuries.

Savage was 58.

Yeah, this dude swung out in '94. He raised $100mil as a non-profit to advertise this years Apocalypse. He's keeping some of the money, "to pay the bills just in case."

You just can't make it up.

 

[messn'n'gommin']

Dammit! Why do they do plan this shit every time I have something to do?

Then again, he is 94. So, actuarialy speaking, he might not be all that far off!
