The End of the World

It's the end of the world, as we know it...and I feel fiiiiine....

And the mothmen are the omen.

So, spent today watching documentaries on the History Channel. The first was about the mothman. A large being that is half man, half moth....no, seriously. Apparently, it swoops down from the tops of bridges with its long wing-span and up to 8-ft tall height. Main thing: its large, red eyes. Do I believe any of this? Well, I believe that these witnesses believe that they saw a mothman, but...no. Knowing the human mind, they probably just saw red eyes, large-ish wing-span and, by hearing similar reports of a so-called mothman, exaggerated their view in their own mind into thinking that this was indeed a man/moth. But, quite honestly, I think it was probably just a large barn owl. Those guys have some pretty wickedly large wings and their eyes glow red with in the light, so it is very probable that, in the dark of the night, this was what people interpretted to be the mothman. Some of the people in these towns (mostly West Virginia, if I'm not wrong) believe that the sudden spike in mothman appearances is due to the end of the world...I say it's just more proof of the power of mass-paranoia...

But, speaking of the end of the world, I watched about four hours worth of documentaries about Armageddon, the Apocalypse, and general prediction of the world's doom. While we have jumped and avoided many dates that have signaled our doom (supposedly) there are still many more to come! And, for your own paranoia and mental instabability, here is a list of some of the upcoming, possible doomsdays:

-2010: August-November
-2011: May 21 (the rapture), October 21 (earth consumed in flames)
-2011: November 11 (because it'll be 11-11-11....because 1911 doesn't count)
-2012: December 21-22, Winter solstice (Mayan/Aztec prediction, three eclipsed moons, etc.)
-2014: (predicted by Pope Leo IX...no clue why though)
-2016: (disease will kill us all off...can't wait)
-2023: (apparently some clue from Daniel 12:12-13)
-2024: (meteorite...'nough said)
-2028: (asteroid...though scientists now say that it will miss us...but not by much)
-2030: April 7
-2034: (covenants will be equal by years...but not really...this is flawed)
-2038: (massive starvation, floods, extinction, etc.)

There are also predictions in 2060 and 2076...next couple of years will be so much fun...then again, there's a doomsday theory for just about every year, so it shouldn't be surprising. Of course, many Christians believe that Armageddon is already before us, due to the war in the Middle East, starvation that is apparent everywhere, and the increased amount of diseases. These correspond with the Four Horsemen that are to come, as predicted in the Book of Revelations: war, plague, famine, then death. Actually, since we're already in a state of unrest and quarreling, will apparently have a mass influx of disease in 2016, and then starvation in 2038, maybe this is true...who knows...but I'm gonna say that our doom is in, oh, how about 2040? That'll give us some time, right? Wasn't really planning to live that long anyways.

Then there are also the factors that the earth is changing, it always is, which causes natural disasters, changes in temperature, etc. The dinos were wiped out, were due for our own as well, I suppose. I doubt it'll be in our lifetime, but then again, what do I know? Nothing, really.

Currently watching Independence Day...maybe our end will be aliens...what's actually in Area 51? One must wonder...looked at it on Google Earth once...nothing but buildings. I'm thinking there are...weapons of mass destruction! Actually, that's probably not too far from the truth (it'd have to be something that the US wouldn't want other countries to know...or the population in general, for it could cause mass chaos...). Aliens, weapons, biological/chemical/etc. warfare...or maybe it's a brothel, who knows. It's probably better that we just don't know...but we all want to.

Well, this has been fun...just remember all you Catholics (ha, this includes me! Not really...), when all these people are in pain and suffering, dying left and right, screaming in agony, rejoice! For YOU will be saved! (some priest actually said something to this affect...apparently, when the world is in peril, everyone who BELIEVES will be saved! Yes, let's screw the rest of the world and be saved!....bitches). No, I'm not ragging on Catholics, that'd be a tad hypocritical, I'm just ragging on the self-righteous ones...actually, I'm ragging on self-righteous religious people in general...none of you can be perfectly right, okay? Not possible. You should all just watch Dogma and laugh. THAT, I believe, is the true belief...not the Catholic parts of the movie, but the morals in general....love it...I need to watch it again...

Hope everyone had a lovely St.Patrick's day! I celebrated by dancing to folk music...with a metal/rock theme...ah yeah...and I had a cookie...a green cookie...with sprinkles...yummy....

Happy Leprechaun day, folks...
