he supposedly had affairs with marie antouinette as well as queen elizabeth

All of this prophecy and 2012 stuff is something I can usually just sit back and laugh at, but now its getting on my nerves because it's actually affecting me by ruining the History channel for me. All I've been seeing lately is specials on the antichrist, Nostradamus and 2012, and now the channel even has an entire show based on this crap, "The Nostradamus Effect." My sense of humor can't take it anymore. Hearing the channel constantly spew out crap regarding vague prophecies about fire, destruction and starvation and then having some history guy go "That stuff is happening right now, Nostradamus predicted it," just doesn't make me laugh anymore. This is no longer just an isolated burst of idiotic conspiracy theory, its become much, much more terrible.

yea thats my boi

Yeah, I like to laugh at it but at the end of the day it's incredibly disturbing the amount of people who not only believe in the end of the world, but the fact that so many people desperately want it to happen.

That for me is more terrifying than anything the Bible or Nostradamus could diss out.

I think History Channel has gone to crap way before this whole Nostradamus trend though, for a while it was nothing but Hitler and UFOs, and at least Hitler actually has something to do with history.

At this point the History Channel is about on the equal educational level of say, Nickelodeon.

No wait, I take that back. I've learned more about marine biology from watching episodes of Spongebob Squarepants than I have learned about History from anything currently on that self parody of a network. :laughing:

You see, 99.9% of the history channel shows are inaccurate and just there for entertainment. If you want credible theories on 2012 or anything else you should look elsewhere. History Channel wants ratings, so anything that ties into this whole 2012 ordeal will be what they will be showing until it is over and done with.

Such as your assh*le.

Beside "The Nostradamus Effect" the History Channel have other shows like 10 Ways How to Destroy the Earth. What senario I thouhgt that could really happen is the "Strange Matter" used to destroy [or transformed] the Earth. They said if you dropped some "Strange Matter" on top of the Empire State Building it would slowly turn into "Strange Matter." Then eventually the whole building would turn into "Strange Matter" etc etc Even Mount Rushmore and slowly the whole Earth. "Strange Matter" is what is foun in a Neutron Star. Well what I find a little alarming is that The Large Hadron Collider is said to produce Miniture Black Holes. Well if the LHC can create Miniture Black Holes then it can create Miniature Neutron Stars or "Strange Matter." I don't think the Scientist want to create Miniature Black Holes I think they are looking for a way to create "Strange Matter" with the LHC. Thus in a way The Large Hadron Collider is a Doomsday Machine like the one in Doctor Strangelove.

The LHC isn't doing anything that isn't already happening millions of times every day. Cosmic rays are colliding at higher speeds and more energy than they do in the LHC and the universe as we know it is still around. They've taken security seriously and done a lot of risk asessment, but as far as I know, there is none. It's just recreating something that already takes place in nature - just under controlled laboratory conditions.

Regarding strangelets (strange matter), they don't believe these can be produced by the LHC. If they should be however, they would turn into regular matter so quickly - within a thousand millionth of a second - that they wouldn't have time to interact with other matter first.

The main concern for common people regarding the LHC is miniature black holes. The reason is simply because when you fire particles (protons) at eachother with that kind of speed and energy, they could form a superdense clump when they hit eachother, but these are predicted to not be produced. If they are produced, they are predicted to evaporate quickly - lose their matter by radiation. If somehow they stick around, they are still predicted to be way too small to produce any macroscopic effects in our universe's lifetime. If the LHC can produce miniature black holes, then in theory such black holes should be created all the time out there where cosmic radiation flies around and crashes .. and we're still here.

If the LHC really was a doomsday machine, then probably the whole of the scientific community would be in on it. I haven't been let in on any big secrets there yet, so I don't believe that. :p:

So religious doomsday sayers rely on 3 big sources to back up their claims. The Bible, Nostradomus and Western culture's buttf*cked understanding of Mayan astrology.

The last two will eventually be proven wrong, but the bible? Man, if radical Christians are still around in a hundred thousand years, they'll spend most of that time preaching about the end times.

They never take no for an answer, every time they pick a date that turns out to be full of sh*t, it dosen't phase them at all. They always have a back up date for our inevitable destruction no matter how many times they're proven wrong which ironically means they'll keep pulling doomsday dates out of their asses until mankind actually does ceast to exist. :laughing:

And that'l probably happen before anyone has a chance to say "I told you so".

You can't call an atom bomb safe because you can find natural occuring radioactive material in the ground you walk on. I'm sure Madame Curie could never imagine the devastation of an atomic bomb.
