If people can't even get a logical theory right, they can't get a ridiculous theory right.

I'm officially asking for your permission to quote you on YAF, with due credit of course.

If I may ask... Who is an eclipse of the moon going to destroy the earth?


An asteroid sounds MUCH more logical to me -.-

Thing is, people don't believe the eclipse will cause destruction itself; only that it'll be one of the signs, or at least events, that'll occur simultaneously.
Then again, knowing it's already happened, it's pointless to discuss that.

They say a lunar eclipse will happen on that day, and blah blah, blah blah. Thing is, that that lunar eclipse already happend. The people didn't even get the YEAR or DAY right. The lunar eclipse happened on December 20th, 2010, if I'm right ( you may look it up if you don't happen to believe me). Now, if they can't even predict a lunar eclipse right how are they supposed to know when the world ends?

Emm... The eclipse wasn't the only theory that they had. they said that an asteroid would hit earth, they said aliens would attack and they say a lot more of weird stuff.


Then again, knowing it's already happened, it's pointless to discuss that.


...

Wait a second.You guys say that a lunar eclipse happened last year, right? You guys say that there can't be another lunar eclipse because one already happened last year, right? You really think that there can't ever be a lunar eclipse besides that one, right?

...

Seriously, I didn't want to embarrass SDY and Waller, but seeing that FS who claims to be a scientist seriously believes this "unicorning rainbow" I can't stay silent anymore.
Dudes.
Want to see some facts?

See this? 6 lunar eclipses in 3 years! Do you still think that a lunar eclipse is some kind of nonrecurring event? Nevertheless, these dates (they're from the NASA, BTW) show that all these conspiracy noobs missed the lunar eclipse by a month. But that still doesn't allow you to ignore astrophysics. The moon doesn't stand still, and the earth doesn't either. Sooner or later there always will be a lunar (or solar) eclipse, and these eclipses aren't as rare as you might think.

OBJECTION!!!!

This is not just an ordinary eclipse we are discussing though

http://www.washingto...0122006447.html


Only happens around 2,000 years. As you can see from the link above this lunar eclipse is special. This lunar eclipse was the base of one 2012 theory.

They say we've gone through several Apocalypses already, the Dinosaurs being the most recent...

Yeah... *Has nothing more solid to contribute*

Whoops, sorry then, your posts didn't make clear that you were talking about a special eclipse. :P


By the way, Wertville, Occam's razor suggests to tend to simpler theories as long as the result is the same. Your theory of the Mayan calendar being just a calendar is simpler, but the world being destroyed isn't the same as if nothing happened. Thus, you can't use Occam's razor in this case.

(Sorry for pissing you off, dudes, but I'm addicted to trying to correct correcting people :D)

Actually, I had suspected that I had used it improperly, so thank you for correcting me :P

That being said, my point still mostly stands... Just without a shaving-related name to describe it XD

Uh, Guest? I'm not pretending to be a real scientist, aside from my name. And besides, it's Biology I take, not Astronomy.

Judging by that article SDY linked us though, the kind of eclipse we're talking about won't be here till the end of this century. O.O

Apparently the world ends today. There's supposedly going to be a giant earthquake and that any non-believers will be dead by 21 October. I haven't felt any tremors yet, so I'm going to assume that life is going to carry on as normal tomorrow. Even most Christians don't believe that the world will end today.

Our world has already been destroyed.
We just haven't noticed, because we've been living on an exact replica for the last couple weeks. We'd been teleported here in our sleeps, when it was 4am in each timezone.
Only night owls know the truth, as they are our new prophets.

Turns out that Harold Camping made a mistake. 21 May was just a "spiritual" judgement day and the world will definitely end on 21 October 2011. Third time lucky perhaps?

Of course! Let's all drop out of school and quit our jobs! We don't have to worry, since its the end of the world!

From a scientific and religious perspective, no one knows when the world is about to end. I'll party in that day, party that people are so incredibly stupid to believe something like that.

Hopefully, we are enjoying life as if December 21, 2012 never happens. The fact that 1/6 of Americans believe it is just unbelievable.

I don't think so. Whether it's religiously, mathematically, relating to ancient civilizations, or scientifically, there's facts to disprove it either way. I'd rather not bring up religion, since it can spark debates, but scientifically, if the world were to end on 2012, the magnet poles would already be shifting, scientists would have detected a meteor heading toward the earth, and there would be trusted newspapers and scientists saying it would end. I won't bring up the mathematical one either, since that involves religion, which can spark a debate. If it was the end of the world because of facts relating to ancient civilizations: their calendars didn't end on December 21, 2012 because there were no days after that; that had about as much to with the end of the world as our calendars ending on the 31st of December each year, not to mention that if ancient civilizations could predict the end of the world, wouldn't modern scientists be able to? Of course, the world could end, just like it ended 13 days ago. . . and 5 years ago. . . oh, and the Y2K. Is it just me, or has the world been ending a lot lately? :P

Of course I believe in the year 2012. Now if you're asking if I believe in the end of the world prophecy set in 2012, then no. I don't.
