    Tell the truth...you've been waiting since you posted this thread to use that, haven't you?
  • its irrelevant anyways because everyone knows the world will end on May 21, 2011. 7000 years after Noah's ark.

    May 21, 2011, Judgment Day, Rapture, End World

    I thought it was Easter of 2033, 2000 years after JC was crucified.

    You're date makes the May 2-4 weekend next year kind of a drag though!

    You might want to file your tax return early this year, so you get your refund prior to May 21st :)
  • I don't know about the end of the world, but I can tell when Hell is freezing over . . .

    Best estimates have it sometime early Monday morning of next week. Possibly as late as Nov. 9-13th, but DEFINITELY by the 15th of next month.

    It is an exercise for the student to figure out why . . .

    Me thought this was a leafs joke, but I am struggling to find the reason for these dates...:mad:

    You're hoping to, JUST ONCE, make money in a poker tournament?
  • Your accuracy, and lack of faith, are amazing, Johnnie. I have made money before, but your supposition is correct. The dates correspond to times shortly after (in order) the WSPC event, AJ's Bounty tourney, the Ching Hill SET, and the Royal Cup.

    You win a cookie . . . :)


    Reibs, what better punch line could there be than, "I'm a Leafs fan" ?

    Why are we theorizing the date of Judgement Day? Can't we just ask compuese? He heard the prophecy first hand didn't he?

    Take heed folks, I hear that seniority is a big deal to the Lord . . . it's how comp got that autographed copy of the Bible, ya know . . .

    and now a good urban legend to follow this up....

    HELL EXPLAINED BY CHEMISTRY STUDENT

    The following is an actual question given on a
    University of {insert your favorite name here} chemistry mid-term. The
    answer by one student was so "profound" that the
    professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet,
    which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of
    enjoying it as well.

    Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or
    endothermic (absorbs heat)?

    Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs
    using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats
    when it is compressed) or some variant.

    One student, however, wrote the following:

    First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is
    changing in time.
    So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving
    into Hell and t he rate at which they are leaving. I
    think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets
    to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are
    leaving.

    As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at
    the different religions that exist in the world today.
    Most of these religions state that if you are not a
    member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since
    there is more than one of these religions and since
    people do not belong to more than one religion, we can
    project that all souls go to Hell.

    With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect
    the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially.
    Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in
    Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the
    temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the
    volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls
    are added.

    This gives two possibilities:

    1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate
    at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and
    pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks
    loose.
    2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the
    increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and
    pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

    So which is it?

    If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa
    during my Freshman year that, "it will be a cold day
    in Hell before I sleep with you, and take into account
    the fact that I slept with her last night, then number
    two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is
    exothermic and has already frozen over.
    The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has
    frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any
    more souls and is therefore, extinct...leaving only
    Heaven thereby proving the existence of a divine being
    which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting
    "Oh my God."

    THIS STUDENT RECEIVED THE ONLY "A"
  • The Second Law of Thermodynamics states that “Everything is winding down”. The physical universe around us is going from a state of order to disorder, from complex to simple. Everything is dying, everything is wearing out, natural resources diminishing. It’s man that brought this curse upon himself and upon all creation through disobedience. Genesis chapter 1

    Science has again proven the Bible to be correct. I don't have a date for you but I believe it will happen one day. Always believed it to be in my life time.

    Definately believe in the prophesy of once Israel becomes a nation, this generation will see the coming of the Lord. That was in 1948, now if I only knew what a generation was today, then I could get really excitied.

    That would definitely be a true sign of the coming end of days
  • I am all for you winning this weekend. It would be a long time coming! And well deserved!
