Here we go again: God's gonna destroy the world!!!! Think he means it this time??

Sorry to give such short notice; but Mathieu Jean-Marc Joseph Rodrigue Predicts the World Will End on June 24, 2018:

Live it up, everyone. The world is going to end… again!

According to Biblical scholar — or conspiracy theorist, depending on whom you ask — Mathieu Jean-Marc Joseph Rodrigue, the world is scheduled to end on June 24. As evidence, he cites a passage in the Book of Revelations: “And a mouth was given to [the Beast], speaking great things and blasphemy, and it was given authority to act forty and two months.”

“I heard a voice in the middle of the four living beings,” Rodrigue said. “This is wisdom. He who has intelligence can interpret the figure of the beast. It represents the name of a man. His figure is 666.”

Donald Trump, maybe?? Hmmm?

From this information, Rodrigue combined 666 with the number 42 and somehow arrived at the date June 24. (Don’t try that math at home.)

It’s true that the beasts have been busy in June 2018, and they have indeed been given mouths. On June 13, a raccoon climbed a 20-story office tower in St. Paul, Minnesota, captivating the entire planet with its determined, death-defying feat. And it was given a mouth, of sorts, by National Public Radio’s local affiliate station, Minnesota Public Radio, which kept up a lively Twitter feed chronicling the beast’s eventual rescue (via cat food). Does Twitter count as a mouth? Don’t tell the president. Also, the station sold raccoon tote bags (as one does, in public radio) and a local musician wrote a song about her.

So the 42 months end on December 16, 2018, or two weeks before the new Democratic Congress is sworn in. Damn! I was so hoping we'd get to see him impeached before he ends the world.

That I've lost track of all the dates when the world was absolutely, positively, this-time-for-sure, going to end.

So I have to post my favorite web site on the subject ... again.

The following pages contain the most comprehensive collection of apocalyptic prophecies I could compile. Plus, discussion about the various types of Doomsday warnings and obsessions, quirks of the calendar, predictions of apocalypse from around the world and assorted other related stuff. So, if you think you have time to look them over before the Big One hits, the UV rays fry you, the nuclear winter freezes you, the Rapture captures you, the aliens abduct you, the earth opens up to swallow you, the black helicopters come to get you or the dreaded Satanic computer pixies plant a bar code in your forehead and plunge the world into commie-pinko conspiracy chaos, then, by all means, enjoy!

Warning - this is a seriously old style web site. It was maintained from 1999 to 2009 and the styling was ugly even by 1999 standards. But it is a pretty exhaustive listing of predictions of the end of the world through history and is funny as it can get.
