The world ends starting May 21!
January 4, 2011 at 2:55 pm
A group of Christian whackos has determined that May 21 will be when the end of the world begins.

Guess we all should sell everything we own and spend our last few months on a beach in Tahiti waiting for Jesus to arrive...
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?

I doubt that the prophecy is true.

How can you doubt it? These people have calculated this date by carefully studying the Bible!

I've lost count with all the false predictions they've made. How many is it now? 349,563?
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
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.

Well, when they're proven to be wrong they just blame it on a "miscalculation" and come up with a new date! Would you trust a weather man who is wrong as often as these bozos?

Did this news story HAVE to come out of North Carolina? [sigh]
What's it feel like to sit and think your god put you somewhere to SUFFER until he calls you home - that this gorgeous earth we live on is just some sort of shitty way-station? That's a level of mind-bending self-deprecation that I can't touch.
Fuck that.

Maybe it's because "God-fearing" is often used as a compliment.
