Dude, the last time it came up was last year by Christian leader Harold Camper: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_end_times_prediction.
oh so the end of the world doesnt have religious connotations, got it get the fuck out of here with this weak ass shit, tasteless my ass (which ironically is very flavorful)
Depends on what angle you sit on. There are many in the empirical field that also believes the world is going to end. Solar flares or economic collapse if I remember correctly.
right, or plague, volcano eruptions, locusts, and water shortages, none of which have anything to do with god, right? and the religious would just herald solar flares as some interpreted form of "fire raining down from heaven" no matter how the world ends it will have religious connotations to billions of people, unless we have stopped believing religion by then
I honestly don't even know what I should get for protection if I decide to go that route. Do I get a handgun, a shotgun, or a rifle? It would not be for hunting or for offense, just for defense in case of emergency.
if its defense you want a handgun, maybe a shotgun if you really need to disintegrate someone but all 3 would be preferable, maybe a few of each actually
That's it! I'll get meself a banjo. [Hillbilly accent] Yeeeeee hawwwwwww! And I'll just sit on the porch with the banjo in my lap and a toothpick in my mouth, a jug labeled xxx leaning against my shoeless left foot, and there ain't a person in the world who would mess with me.[/hillbilly accent] I actually have a friend who is a banjo luthier and has made some bad ass banjos.
I think brainiac makes a good point. If you want to defend yourself against a guy with a knife, get a handgun. If he's got a handgun, you're better off with the shotgun. If it's two or three guys coming at you, something that's semi automatic or fully automatic. But the liberals took away the automatic weapons back in the Clinton years...
