The world ends this weekend

According to some...there will be an earthquake on Sat and it will mark the beginning of the end of the world. The end of the world will officially come 5 months from sat. but it all starts this weekend.
Have a nice day and give your kids and wife a hug and a kiss, just in case.

I believe we are in the end of times, as we Christians call it. But i also belive Jesus will come in the twinkling of an eye. We know not when. But when it happens, we will surely know!
I'm going to go fishing Saturday!

Be encouraging, not discouraging

Does anyone know what time THE END occurs? I want to make sure I get out on the boat fishing before then. I don't mind being caught with a pole in hand with a tight line to a 50lb'er when THE END happens.

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

The chances of the world ending tomorrow are about the same as the soxs winning the world series again.

Didn't Schwartzenegger make a movie called "End of Days"?
Maybe that warning was just about his world?

Think the end of world defense will hold up in court?

Yeah, we'll just have to muddle through with all the beer, hookers and 50lb. stripers while you are gone!

So what time does the mothership come to pick you all up?

Interesting anectdote I was told a week or so ago by a guy who's an ordained minister (not a born-again, but a fairly liberal Protestant denomination). Apparently, back in the 1850s, there was one of these doomsday cults in the midwest--Iowa, or Kansas, one of those farm-belt states. They had worked this out to the exact minute, apparently, and they had catapaults built so at the precise moment of the rapture, they could launch themselves into the air, where the angels would catch them.

Apparently, the angels played the rapture the same way that Manny Ramirez used to play a lot of fly balls, because a few of them had a less than rapturous entry into the hereafter, and the rest probably wished they had been killed.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.

Now that's funny
