2012

We won't know the day nor the hour, but the "season"... Me, I've always predicted 2033. Don't ask why.

Knowing that the Lord whom we seek "shall descend from heaven with a shout with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God," we await with great expectancy that glorious day. We "know perfectly that the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night"; that He will not be expected by the "world"; and that He will take vengeance upon the ungodly in that day. Sudden destruction will come upon them "as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape." But the saints of God (those who follow Him and keep His commandments) who are "the children of light, and the children of the day," shall not be in darkness. They know the generation of his return, and hence they await and watch and are sober. (1 Thessalonians 5:2-6.) They can read the signs of the times. That is, they know and recognize the things that must occur after the ascension and before the Second Coming and thus are in a position to have an intelligent opinion as to when the great and dreadful day of the Lord will come.

I guess shift happens.

It must be the fruit and vegetable diet that's gone to his head, everybody needs some ribeyes and chicken. And did anybody notice that dude looks like one of the BeeGees??!! LOL!

I think the Bee Gee's are better looking.

I can't believe this kook makes money off of these books.

Sure wish I knew if it was true or not. If it was true, we would sure quit paying $1200 a month for health insurance and just go island hopping in the Caribbean...

I remember my daughter, who is now 24, came home from school one day when she was in the 7th grade. They were studying the Mayans and was very concerned and alarmed that their calendar ended in 2012. She was convinced the world was coming to an end.

I said, don't worry, they all perished before someone could finish the calendar!!

My take on that has always been to wonder why people don't think the world will end on Dec. 31st. I mean, obviously it will end . . . our calender ends on that date!

I am certain that at some date the earth will shift on its axis and life as we know it will end.

It happens about every 24 hours!

The world renews itself on a regular basis and it will continue to do so. SOmeday it might just shrug this people parasite off and we'll be over. Oh well.


Mostly I laugh at these because people act as if the calender we use can be correlated to the calender used by the Mayans. Way back when Pope - wasn't it gregory? - shifted the calender by a few days suddenly?? And there have been other types of tinkering over the millenia....

Well, if the world is ending in 3 years I can keep outting off that dental work I need right Mahonri??
