I guess it's time to move on to the significance of Benedict being the last pope predicted by Nostrodamus. :nod:

Re: Any Plans For The End Of The World On Friday???
The trick with apocalypse hoaxes is to make it sound just believable to be true yet in fact having something so woefully inaccurate that no one bothers to look it up. For example I just made this one up...
Did you know that there is only one Friday the 13th in 2013! Doomsday is coming September 13th 2013!!!! Actually there are two, another one follows in December but people are too lazy to look it up before passing it on so hopefully this one will spread soon and keep us on our toes until then. |

Oh yes! .... And there was the prediction circulating in the 1980's that the "motherland" (presumed to be France) would be invaded by the "eastern bear" (presumed to be Russia) through Spain! :confused: .... So, the interpretation was that Russia would invade the Middle East, take north Africa, and then head into western Europe via Spain. So how accurate did that prophecy turn out to be? :rofl:
Going through France would probably be easier, on reflection :whistle: |

One of my friends believes in "prophecy." Not any specific prophecy, just "prophecy." All prophets are true ones, because they're "gifted prophets." Yeah.
I asked her last week how she planned to reconcile the Pope rotation of Malachy (not Nostradamus) and the December 21 "end of the world," given that the events in Malachy's vision, and the events in the last prophecy of Bernadette Subirous, haven't happened yet. (I manfully refrained from asking her if she paid this month's rent.) She said, and I quote, "All things come to pass in ways we don't understand." Uh huh. |

That said, as of now, the Russians would be hard pushed to invade my backyard if they were camped next door, never mind take on the "might"* of the French army! :lol: * They might fight, ..... oooor they might not. :unsure: |

If I was a Russian bent on the takeover of Europe - that's how I'd do it.

As such events seem to be occuring with increased regularity, I wonder if there is a business opportunity for apocalypse memorabilia?
Though as I think the concept through... :huh: The ones specific to each apocalypse are printed to order so no left over stock - anyone remember the only fools and horses episode when they had some "free Nelson Mandela" t shirts and they amended them with a hand written "he is" and a ","? |

Well, we're heading into the evening, GMT time, and all seems well with the world, based on the view from my window. So maybe, just maybe, the Mayans weren't quite so knowledgable about the path of the universe after December 21, 2012, after all? :confused:

A bunch of empty headed woo-woos in the second half of the 21st century stumbled across this (being a date in the near future conveniently) then added a bunch of astrological hokum and assorted spiritualistic ****twattery into the mix. Hapless twunts ... |
