End Of The World SADDISTS! by Nobody: 4:20pm On Feb 16, 2013
I watching a video, where an atheist scientist was telling a story about someone he met in a party. In the party, someone came up to the scientist and asked if he (the scientist) was an astrophysicist. The scientist confirmed that he is an astrophysicist. The person then proceeded to ask the scientist about the end of the world. The scientists then gave reasons why the world will not end in 2012. The person then walked away from the scientist feeling dejected after hearing that his end of the world belief is false.


The thing that is truly annoying from this story is that some people are not happy unless something catastrophic happens to the rest of the world. How can someone be sad that the world is not going to be destroyed soon?


This kind of belief is present in christianity and islam. How the hell can people believe in the end times with glee? Are they freaking saddists? You see most of them shouting "end times" whenever something that they dont like happens- as if it is some ultimate solution to their problems.

-When asked why irreligion/atheism is growing "END OF THE WORLD"
-When told that gay marriage is legalized "END OF THE WORLD"
-When told that a pastor/priest was caught molesting a child "END TIMES"

Ask these same fools if they want to raise their grandchildren to become good christians and muslisms, they will give you a resounding yes. The end of the world is soon but it will wait for 2 generations of your family? MADNESS!

This is one of the paradigm shift i experienced on my transition from chritianity to atheism. I remember as a Christian how I firmly believe we are in the end times. Any major news story is a a sign of the end times.
Eg
-Iran is developing nuclear weapons - this means that the end is near and Jesus is coming soon.
-Britons legalising gay marriage.
- A madman shooting students in their school
- Obama 's medicare programme.
- a pastor sleeping with an under-aged female child.
- earthquake in Japan.
Etc etc etc

All these are indication that rapture will soon happen (whatever the hell that means) and their imaginary hero will suddenly appear in the sky and whisk them away in a twinkling of an eye, sparing them the total destruction he will later send down to the earth.

I can't help but laugh when I remember that I used to think like this. Plaetton has correctly labelled religion, especially the pentecostal form of Christianity as a mild form of mental illness. He is right.

No wonder religious people don't bother with the earth's environmental preservation. Why would they when their mind has been configured to firmly believe in the destruction the earth.

What's your definition of end time? Rapture? Big giant meteor hits the earth?

We are in time. Simple and short. All these your end and beginning of time make no sense. If you dont know the exact startin point and finish line of something how do know that you are at the beginning or end of it?

Deep down I know that we all know that we are not at the starting point.............infact we are so far away from the starting point........I guess you know what it means when I say that we are far away from the staring point...........the unrelenting spate of disorderliness of this system called the world shows its end is imminent...........like it or not........

Chei, religion is really a terrible disease. Imho, worse than cancer, worse than aids. It is a terrible thing for the mind to go to waste. Chei, even as a xtian, I was not as mental as this.

You might call yourself mental for believing that you would one day grow old and die..........we all and the world itself are gravitating towards an end.........call me mental.....

You must be a real fool to believe that. The Mayans and your christian brothers contributed to such rumour

Lol, so when was this world ever in order?

Even further, the events that are cited as signs of the 'end of the world' have been with us as long as humans have been around.....murder, prostitution, war, mast.urbation shocked , earthquakes, homosexuality, volcanoes, global warming and cooling phases, drought, plagues... What is around now that was not back then? And of course each generation from the time of Jesus believed they were in end times, including Muhammad and his generation... The world is actually much safer than at any time in history in many ways. If homosexuality is in the news, it is not because there is more of it or even more tolerated, but rather more talked about because of the communications revolution....

And we're still waiting. Meantime if it really looks like the end of the world, well then I'll sell everything I own and buy beer.
