Reminder, you're all doomed.

Good news everyone.

It is now after midnight in NZ. We are all still here. I am guessing there is a big wave of nothing much at all sweeping across the world as October 22 rolls around the planet.

Come to the future - all is well.

Well a scientologist was told to wait in line at KFC. A sign: of not the End Of The World, but A Slow News Day.
 
Well, Troll Hunter was a fine movie. My Troll lore was a little weak though. The susceptibility of Christians to the danger of Trolls was a hysterical revelation; and the true purpose of power lines in the wilderness, I never imagined.

Sounds like the next doomsday date is 11-11-11. Maybe I'll save Day of the Dead for that.
 
I've been of two minds on many things, but this one not.
Bat chit crazy is obvious.

Wait, I thought 11/11/11 was the next end-of-the-world date????

Oops, sorry, Kopji beat me to it.

No, that's the release date for the big sword-and-sorcery epic Immortals to be released. It could be a really horrible day, but probably not the end of the world.
 
Well, you see, it's like this. Camping's probability calculations were off. Yesterday there was actually a .9 probability that The End would come, which gave rise to a quantum superposition consisting of a destroyed earth with a .9 probability density in Higgs space, and an undestroyed earth with a .1 probability density in Higgs space. Then the superposition decohered and the two earths separated. From our perspective, nothing at all happened, because our superposed identities on the destroyed earth ceased to exist, leaving only our surviving selves here on the "lucky" earth.

We are fortunate that God decided to mercifully snuff our other selves. Otherwise, as nearly as I can figure, there would have been a .9 probability that we would have found ourselves screaming in hell today. We should reward the Big Guy's merciful deck-stacking by changing our evil ways. Or else we may well find ourselves trying to catch the Devil's herd across these endless skies.
 
The World Ended Yesterday

Harold Camping's prediction again failed, but now he's laying low.

Harold Camping Oct. 21 Rapture: Bible Preacher Declares 'Nothing to Report Here'
By Ray Downs
Christian Post
Oct. 21 2011


Harold Camping’s only words to reporters the day before what he has claimed will be the world’s last day were: “We’re not having a conversation. There’s nothing to report here,” according to Reuters.

Wearing a bathrobe and using a walker outside of his Alameda, Calif., home, the doomsday preacher chuckled as reporters tried to get comments from him Thursday regarding the supposed Rapture that, as of Friday afternoon, appears not to be happening.

However, Camping did say the Oct. 21 rapture would be "quiet."

Months after Camping's second prediction of a May 21 Judgment Day, the doomsday "prophet" said that no one noticed it because it was a "spiritual" judgment and that the physical end would "probably" come on Oct. 21. Camping, 90, added that people might not even notice because "there will be no pain suffered by anyone because of their rebellion against God. Unbelievers might just fall asleep and never wake up."

Conversation With Harold Camping, Prophesier of Judgment Day

[The following interview took place on May 11. Since then Camping's followers have continued their rapture awareness advertising campaign, despite doubts from their family members and the group's own employees.]

We've followed with interest the Christian movement that believes Judgment Day will occur on May 21. They've put up billboards, they've handed out fliers. Some of them have even burned through all of their savings, so convinced are they that the world is going to end on May 21 and they'll no longer need it. That's the most incredible part of this bizarre story — that these people are so sure about something so incredibly unlikely. How can that be? To find out, we went right to the source: Harold Camping, the gravely voiced, 89-year-old founder of Family Radio; the man who pinpointed May 21 as the exact date of the Rapture based on clues sprinkled throughout the Bible. He is very confident in his prediction.

How certain are you that world is going to end on May 21 — do you have any doubts?

God has given sooo much information in the Bible about this, and so many proofs, and so many signs, that we know it is absolutely going to happen without any question at all. There’s nothing in the Bible that God has ever prophesied — there’s many things that he prophesied would happen and they always have happened — but there’s nothing in the Bible that holds a candle to the amount of information to this tremendous truth of the end of the world. I would be absolutely in rebellion against God if I thought anything other than it is absolutely going to happen without any question.

Good to know, I've been considering watching that one.

I'm due on Nov 9th so I'll be very annoyed if the world does end on 11/11/11, all the pain of childbirth for nothing.

Of course we're on the "lucky" earth. If we'd been on the "unlucky" one, we wouldn't be here to report it!
 
What, it ended again? Why doesn't anyone tell me these things?
