Is it the end of the world tomorrow? Unlikely.

The end of the world has been predicted so many times it's hard to keep track of all the religious nutzos who make the predicitons. 1666, 1844, 1914, 1918, 1925, 1942, 1981, 1988, 1989, 1992, 1993, 1994, 2006 all had dates that were supposed to be the rapture or judgment day or whatever. People predict the end of times every day. So far no one has been right.

I, as an Agnostic Atheist, do not believe that a god is going to destroy the Earth or whatever tomorrow. I believe more in a zombie apocalypse than that. In fact, it is more possible that tomorrow is the zombie apocalypse than people magically floating away into the clouds.

But I still am an Agnostic, so I don't believe we can know for certain until it has already happened (and even then, we still can't know). So here is a fun little prank you can play on your neighbors tomorrow afternoon:

However if tomorrow really is judgment day or the second coming of Jesus or a nuclear holocaust, I'll probably just sit around singing "It's the end of the world as we know it (and I feel fine)", because it's doubtful that I will be part of the 144,000 that are supposedly being saved (where did that number even come from?!?!?!?).
