Holy crap! 5 years until Armageddon!!!!!

But seriously folks… take my wife, please!

I read on Wikipedia and elsewhere that among the things that are predicted for December 21, 2012 are:

With so many possibilities for an earth-changing event, it looks like 12-21-2012 is a date that will live in infamy, at least until it happens and is highly unextraordinary.

But maybe something big really will take place… So just make sure you make as much money online as you can now, while there's still time!

For those of you seriously curious about December 21, 2012, here's a clip of the show "Sightings" that answers a few questions. I think it's a little old; they say there are only 2 future Popes left until "The End," but I think now we're down to one. The next Pope is supposed to be the last, according to the prophecy.

The last couple of Popes have been worried that George W. Bush could be the Antichrist. Fidel Castro is worried Bush could set off WWIII. Bush himself is worried that Iran, once nuclear, will destroy Israel, launching WWIII. The Mayan calendar is set to end on December 21, 2012.

Technology is at the point where a chip implanted into people could become the "mark of the beast." In the Book of Revelations, it says "And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name." Could "number of his name" refer to the number of the "man," and not the "beast?" In that case, the number of your name could be your social security number.

Throughout history, people have been afraid of the end of the world, and have often expected and anticipated it. It hasn't happened yet. But right now, in 2007, with so many different variables seeming to come together, could this really be it? Jesus said no man would know the true date of the end. Could he have meant, "A lot of people will disregard the signs pointing to the widely-anticipated date, which will indeed mark the end"?

Maybe Tom Cruise has the right idea in building his $10 million bunker.
