I bet you have all heard the story that the Mayan Calendar predicts that the world will end on December 12th, 2012. (If not: Google Mayan Calender 2010<\/a>)
Ha Ha Ha, all those people will feel REALLY stupid when the world actually ends October 21st, 2011!
THAT will teach those 2012 Mayan-End-of-World-ers not to make stupid stuff up!
See: When the World REALLY ends<\/a><\/p>\n

Now, the Mayan Calendar ends on December 12th, 2012, so if the end of a calendar is to be taken as an indication for this world\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s demise, then MY calendar predicts the end of the world to be on December 31st, THIS year!
THAT will teach those people from WeCanKnow<\/a> not to make up silly stuff!<\/p>\n

So, anyway, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m obviously not buying a 2011 calendars this year!<\/p>\n

(Because they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be much cheaper in January 2011)<\/p>\n

There\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s one thing that really puzzles me, though:<\/p>\n

The WeCanKnow<\/a> people are obviously very devout Christians with a very literal view of the Bible. But despite their self confessed claim of a strictly\u00c2\u00a0 literal interpretation of the Bible, they take a quote from the Bible, and then say: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Err.. NAH, that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not true\u00e2\u20ac\u009d.
Granted, there are some passages in the Bible that are quite nebulous, pure gibberish, actually, so it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s to be expected that people disagree about their meaning.<\/p>\n

The mentioned quote however, is not one of those; it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s one of the more straightforward, to-the-point, clear, unambiguous statements. In fact, the WeCanKnow<\/a> people admit that all the different Christian factions that fight over differences in Biblical interpretations, agree on this one! It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s THAT clear: NOBODY knows when the Rapture will be. NOT EVEN JESUS!<\/p>\n

\n

Mark 12:32 (KJV) But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Then, given that one holds the Bible as the literal, infallible and inerrant word of an all-knowing and all-powerful Lord, how twisted a mind does one need, to then turn around, point at a VERY clear statement, and say: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Sorry, My Dear Omniscient Lord, but you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re wrong!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d?<\/p>\n

How can anyone say such a thing without myriads of very loud alarm bells going off and huge red flags being raised in the logic-and-reason department of his or her brain?<\/p>\n

The mind boggles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
