Hey wait... (August 14, 2010 at 3:20 pm)Peter44 Wrote: I always understood that Mayan prophesies suggested the world would end in 2012. You know, I believe we can take advantage of this you know. Why don't we start taking bets that the world won't end? Surely who ever truely believes in the 2012 would have no problem putting their money where their mouths are? We could make a fortune out of this. If we are wrong, we all die horribly, if we are right, we live big.

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity. Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist. You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
Here's my advice, should the Apocalypse arrive any time soon:
There’ll be no need for inhibitions, so you could make love to anything that moves, though, assuming everyone else is doing the same, perhaps it’d be better to stay perfectly still. To ensure that you make the most of your remaining time, maybe buy a copy of 101 Things to Do Before You Die, or, if you’re more concerned about the possibility of an afterlife, convert to every religion, just in case. Conversely, if you’re fed up of scare-mongering and religious fanaticism, it would be entertaining to hold up a sign in the street, saying, ‘The end isn’t nigh’. Or, if none of the above appeals, sleep in all day. @Dotard: it's nice to see that someone shares the same interests as me.
'We must respect the other fellow's religion, but only in the sense and to the extent that we respect his theory that his wife is beautiful and his children smart.' H.L. Mencken
'False religion' is the ultimate tautology. 'It is just like man's vanity and impertinence to call an animal dumb because it is dumb to his dull perceptions.' Mark Twain 'I care not much for a man's religion whose dog and cat are not the better for it.' Abraham Lincoln RE: apocalypse tomorrow!

Quote:The year 2012 is simply the part of the Mayan calendar,known as the Mayan long count. Not to mention being a shitty movie. "The Universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements: energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest." G'Kar-B5
