The 5.21.11 hoax!

I thought that out of my people, I'd go ahead and write on it. For those not in the know, there's this whole rumor of the world ending May 21, 2011...or the rapture if you will. Where did this come from? There's this book that's been going around called The Doomsday Code. According to the book, the rapture's happening tomorrow and the Earth itself will cease to exist on October 20, 2011. It's justification for such an obscene prediction is all twisted numerological pseudo-science humbug. Nitpicking numbers, times and dates like it's The DaVinci Code!

I'll say this -- this would've made as a good fictional account but to be put out and promoted last minute? This is some humbug! 1984 has more premise than this! What puts me in such an uproar is that these (God, I need to say it this way at best) freaking jack@$$e$ completely bypass essential things told to us by the New Testament!

Matthew 24.36, "But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son but the Father only."

1 Thessalonians 5.2-4, "For you yourselves are fully aware that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. While people are saying, "There is peace and security," then sudden destruction will come upon them as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. But you are not in darkness, brothers, for that day to surprise you like a thief."

Seriously, folks, no one -- not even angels, heck, not even Jesus himself! If the very Son of God doesn't know (all of which he's the one talking in that verse), who the heck are we to con people with this?! The Apostle Paul in Thessalonians is saying flat out that it's like the RKO out of nowhere! You won't be able to see it coming. You never know when a thief's gonna break in and it'll be just like that.

In closing I'll say this -- to those getting bamboozled, chill the heck out! It's definitely not going to happen. Why? God's isn't going to tell us the time and date, we won't see it coming. It could happen next week, in a few minutes, Sunday, Thanksgiving, Chanukah, Valentine's Day, the next Presidential election or even on my birthday! I rest my darn case.
