When the sh*t is hitting the fan I am going for cover first. Once the sh*t stops flying I'm coming out to clean up!


If aliens are trying to help the clean up I will be sure to burn a Fattie with them and help get the mess cleaned up again.


If not then it is hunting time!


With that aside it will be down to survivors and those who won't. the ultimate thing is that no man or woman is an island. If we do not learn to act together if the sh*t hits the fan nothing will matter. The dinos didn't have our brain power or technology and we were better at adapting but again if we as a species do not get it together and learn to control ourselves better (AND NWO IS NOT THE CONTROL I SPEAK OF!!!) humanity is about to get its ass handed to it.

The funny thing with BIO weapons. The reason they are not widely used is that they have a bad habit of getting out of the user's control. For example, you want to take a town and you poison the well with dead animal parts especially if the animal died of the right disease. You take the town finally but the well was the drinking water supply. Now where do you get your water? Dig another well near by? Yeah, and watch the next well have the same contamination from bleed over from the other well. I have helped dig them before and you don't just pick a spot and start digging. This has been a problem historically and why poisoning a well was so reserved and not widely used as an attack unless the town would be razed and forgotten.

Every Generation of Every Religion that has a "doomsday prophecy" believes the end will come during their lifetime. They have been wrong up to this point, and I see no reason why that trend won't continue.


True indeed. We'll just have to see what happens. In the meantime Floridians, learn how to swim if you dont know how.scared

I intend to ride my surfboard from LA to Denver when the big one hits!





KOWABUNGA MAN!






By the way, I was thinking about applying for the position of the Horseman of War. Anyone know where I can apply? I got great Horseman skills, good with animals, Motivated, and I love FIRE!(YEAH! YEAH! FIRE BURNS! BURN IT ALL! OH YEAH! I LOVE THE SMELL OF GASOLINE IN THE MORNING!)

Pestilence and Famine can keep their jobs, They would have to do their thing after me! All I would have to do is ride around for a couple of hundred years starting all kinds of trouble, then it is party time for another millennium.

The way humans act I would have serious job security then! Best part is no W-2 to file! I also love the uniform and blood red horse but I suspect it is a dye job!

Ok, there are those of you who arbitrarily deny the significance of the 2012 question,


excerpt from Wikapedia

The significance of this date in Mayanism stems from the ending of the current baktun cycle of the Maya calendar in 2012. Many believe that the ending of this cycle will correspond with a global "consciousness shift" and the beginning of a new age. Speculation about this date can be traced to The Maya by Michael D. Coe,[2] in which he suggested the date of December 24, 2011 (later revised to December 23, 2012) would mark the end of civilization


Sure, these theories have been scrutinized and dismissed by many of the sheep who are comforted by the denial, but FACTS are FACTS

Or it could mean that in 2012 the Mayans were planning to hang a new one on the wall like we do. They just don't make 'm like they used to.

Actually 2012 will be the deadline for me in trying to bake the perfect Sacher Torte.

A Austrian Chocolate cake smooth and velvety with a hint of raspberry inside.

Of course the exact time for this deadline will be December 23, 2012.laugh

:smile: The "Biblical End Times":smile:


happy One day, all the Christians are going to get beamed up like on Star Trek to a spaceshipcity in outerspace.happyThen a supervillain (that can hypnotize people), is going to take over the world for seven years.happy This supervillain will get all the people in the world injected with microchips and then get all the worlds armies to attack Israel.happyThen Jesus will land in a giant spaceshipcity on top of Jerusalem smashing it ,and then all the christians will get out and kill all the unbelievers and then everyone will live happily ever after for 1000 years or so.happy

happy Heres where you can find it in the biblehappy Follow these instructionshappy


1. Turn to Ezekiel 38 & 39. Don't read the first 37 chapters of Ezekiel, they don't matter. And don't read Ezekiel chapters 40 to 48 -- they don't matter either. You're supposed to start reading Ezekiel at Chapter 38. That's obviously why it's Chapter 38.

2. Turn from Ezekiel 39 to 1 Thessalonians 4:16, being very careful not to read verses 13 and 14 of this chapter. (Those verses introduce the section that follows as being about death, hope and grieving and you're going to have to try, instead, to read this section as though it is about the disappearance of all of the earth's children, which it doesn't actually mention.) Anyway, read on through the 11th verse of the following chapter and then jump to the obvious next passage in the plainest, most literal and logical reading of the Bible ...

3. Revelation Chapter 11. Don't read the first 10 chapters of Revelation -- not yet. First finish Chapter 11, then turn to ...

4. Revelation 6:1-2. Don't read the third verse yet, because first you need to turn to ...


5. The ninth chapter of Daniel. Skip the first 19 verses and start with Daniel 9:20.

What will happen in 2012 - is that we will know once and for all any truth or falseness that occurs, then we can move on to the next important date and find out the same ad nauseum :)

What would be interesting to know if such a experiment would result in bringing the end to something.

For example let us take 100 people who live in a small community together.

If 90 people believe that the community will blow up on a certain date and they have no other communication but the 100 people in that community then what is the likelyhood this will happen?

So these 100 people shop in their district, go to a small library, bookstore, other recreations and are always confronted with people preaching that the town will blow up at a certain day and time.

Then what would be the likelyhood that the community will end?

If anything one or two will see to it that it will blow up on that day right?

So what I am getting at is that it is dangerous for those who keep saying in their conspiracies that the world will end for it brings followers who will work on getting more to join to (perhaps) truly make the world end when in actuality that nothing of that sort would happen in the first place.

Are you getting where I am going from this.

So I think it is dangerous to promote the 'end of the world' when in actuality there will be no end to the world.

This is propaganda at its best to actually make something really happen when enough people around the world believe it.

If we think logically then maybe the end of the world will be the day the sun blows up, or a very large meteroid hits the planet. I think that could be possible. I mean so far we have been lucky wouldn't you say.

Um the facts that you just gave us apparently are written in a language that you fail to understand. I'll interpret for those who are English challenged. One man (who is highly unqualified and apparently flunked the class on Mayan interpretation) made up a fun story about the Mayan's claiming the world would end in 2011, but then realized that he couldn't count either (must of failed that class also) and changed it to 2012. This cataclysmic claim is said to be bogus by all his colleagues and a gross misunderstanding of the Mayan culture and calendar.
Here the info from wikipedia that has been conveniently left out:

According to the Popol Vuh, a book compiling details of creation accounts known to the K'iche' Maya of the Colonial-era highlands, we are living in the fourth world.[8] The Popol Vuh describes the first three creations that the gods failed in making and the creation of the successful fourth world where men were placed. In the Maya Long Count, the previous creation ended at the start of a 13th b'ak'tun.

The previous creation ended on a long count of 12.19.19.17.19. Another 12.19.19.17.19 will occur on December 20, 2012, followed by the start of the fourteenth b'ak'tun, 13.0.0.0.0, on December 21, 2012.
. . .
Maya stelae occasionally show dates beyond 2012. Most of these are in the form of "distance dates", where a Long Count date is given with a distance date to be added. For example, on the Tablet of Inscriptions from Palenque the following Long Count date was found: 9.8.9.13.0 8 Ahau 13 Pop (March 24, 603 Gregorian) with a distance date of 10.11.10.5.8. The resulting date is given as 1.0.0.0.0.8 5 Lamat 1 Mol,[10] or October 21, 4772 — almost 3,000 years into the future. The king Pacal of Palenque predicted that on this date the eightieth Calendar Round anniversary of his accession will be celebrated, suggesting he did not believe the world would end in 2012.


How can that be if the world is supposed to end on December 20, 2012?
Well here are Mr. Coe's colleagues to give the answer for that:

Despite the publicity generated by the 2012 date, Susan Milbrath, curator of Latin American Art and Archaeology at the Florida Museum of Natural History, stated that "We [the archaeological community] have no record or knowledge that [the Maya] would think the world would come to an end" in 2012.

"For the ancient Maya, it was a huge celebration to make it to the end of a whole cycle," says Sandra Noble, executive director of the Foundation for the Advancement of Mesoamerican Studies, Inc. in Crystal River, Florida. To render December 21, 2012, as a doomsday or moment of cosmic shifting, she says, is "a complete fabrication and a chance for a lot of people to cash in."

"There will be another cycle," says E. Wyllys Andrews V, director of the Tulane University Middle American Research Institute (MARI). "We know the Maya thought there was one before this, and that implies they were comfortable with the idea of another one after this."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesoamerican_Long_Count_calendar
Apparently Mr. Coe has trouble telling the difference between celebrations and the end of the world. That's alright Mr. Coe, I'm sure it is an easy mistake to make. After all sheer terror and celebration look quite similar.
