I hate to barge in to what was a nice thread, but thats total BS. There have been those things since the beginning of time. Every few years theres people saying the World is going to end and it never has. There hasn't been a single time in the history old the World where the things in that list didn't happen...as someone that doesn't believe in any of that stuff, I still know Jesus himself said that NOBODY can predict when he will return...so come on....really
Scaring people in to faith is terrible. Saying "look, look, Jesus is coming and you better watch out!" isn't from the Bible, its from paranoid individuals that filter the Bible to their immediate needs and delusions

Ah, but Thelema, by saying that you are both 'taking no note of the impending danger' and 'rejecting proof of the last days'! THE PROPHECY IS FULFILLED!!!!
