I love how people think their time = God's time. I'll sit back, enjoy life and let it come to me tyvm...oh and it can happen anytime after ISU wins a NC.
This article is the best one yet at showing just how much of a nutjob these people are...
NYT: Kids hope to attend party — if world doesn't end - US news - The New York Times - msnbc.com
The parents have pretty much blown all the family's money going around preaching the end of times and the kids, who by the way, think their parents are nuts, are close to graduating high school and don't even have any college money saved up. Hell, the mom says in the article her kids aren't coming with them if the **** goes down.
I nominate these jerkoff parents for "Parents of the Decade" award.
Never underestimate what stupid, gullible people will believe.
Anyone remember in 2000 or so when the Russian religious group went into the cave because they thought the world was going to end? They stayed holed up for a few months, then finally gave up and camem out when they started running out of food.
I think it's the details that give this one away. When the guy comes out and says that it will hit at 6pm local time starting at the International date line and progressing westward, that pretty much was the icing on the cake. If God is going to rapture people or end the world or whatever I don't think he is going to go by our man-made time zones and daylight saving time. Plus the logistics of an earthquake spreading like that make as much sense as why Arnold thought his housekeeper was hot enough to bang.
It is amazing that some of these people quit their jobs, sold all of their possessions, left their family behind, spouses, kids, etc... to follow this whack job. This is a great example of how religious fanatics do incredibly stupid things. It's ok to be religious but moderation is the key.
Over the last ten years America has worried itself constantly over fringe Islamic fanatics. I wonder if anybody in the CIA or something has been keeping an eye on these bozos?
