Rev. 8:10-11 - And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters; And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.

Sometimes I think people just make this $#!7 up.

[antiRepublicrat]

He's dead.

[Raebie]

Guess we won’t have to worry about Social Security becoming insolvent after all.

If all goes well, I’ll be 81 years old that day, probably be the biggest event of my life.

[OldDeckHand]

Maybe it will hit, maybe it won't. But, one thing is certain. An E.L.E. has happened in Earth's past (perhaps several time), and it will - statistically speaking - happen sometime again in the future.

IMO, if an asteroid is to take out the Earth, it has yet to be discovered and will almost literally come from nowhere. Scientific calculations today on known asteroids can pretty accurately determine orbit etc.

It could be discovered tomorrow, or conversely, not for 1000 years.

All we have to do is buy carbon credits from manbearpig and he’ll make it all go away.

[Hodar]

Great, I’ll be 68 and ready to retire. So, if I do manage to recover from Zero and his mis-managment of our country; this will ruin things anyway.

Right now, the best retirement I can hope for Mrs. Hodar, is that I develop a fast moving form of cancer. With my insurance, I’m worth far more dead than alive.

[Emperor Palpatine]

4/13/2036....That’ll be my 77th birthday....if I live that long.

[WayneS]

Maybe, but we won’t be around to see it.

After all, the world as we know it is pretty much ending on December 21, 2012, isn’t it?

;-)

[Jack of all Trades]

April 13th, 2036 is Easter Sunday. That would be some Easter egg. I'll be 71, if I make it...

[stuartcr]

I’m sure that if it happens, God has a reason for it.

[Tread EZ]

Perminov said he had heard from a scientist that Apophis is getting closer and may hit the planet. "I don't remember exactly, but it seems to me it could hit the Earth by 2032," he said.

I kid you not

Possible impact points in 2036

Predicted yield: 510 megatons, about 2.5 times that of Krakatoa in 1883 and ~50 times that of Tunguska in 1908.

What the hell does NASA know, anyway?

Their mission is now Muslim reachout!

[Secret Agent Man]

It doesn’t matter anyway.

Scientists already stated in the 1990s that we only had 10 years before climate change was irreversible and would kill us all.

[Charles Martel]

In Egyptian mythology, Apophis was the "counterpart" to the creator, the Sun God (Ra). That would sort of make him the "Moon God", would it not?

Hmm, that's quite a coincidence...

[The KG9 Kid]

The Book of Revelation: basically, it’s World of Warcraft for fundamentalist Christians.

[Leader_Of_The _Conservatives]

Amen! That’s why I’m not worried in any of this...When the Holy Ghost leaves- I will be taken up!

[Don Corleone]

How scared should we be?

Not scared at all as we will all be gone on 12/22/12.....

[thefactor]

I’ll be 50. I guess that’s as good of an age as any to die by asteroid.
