We're all going to die again

I was a little amused by this part.
Quote
The passage reads: "And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of 12 stars. She was pregnant and was crying out in birth pains and the agony of giving birth."

In the passage, the woman is Virgo. On Sept. 23, both the sun and the moon will be in Virgo, as will the planet Jupiter.

Um, no, in that guy's head the woman is Virgo. Not in the passage itself.

Matthew 24:36King James Version (KJV)

36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

If only we could run these celestial alignments through a database to see when and how many times they've happened in the past ~2000 years and will happen in the future.  That would stop a lot of this silliness.

I've been seeing this crap for months and months.  It's going to go the way of Comet Elenin, the end of the Mayan calendar and the whole blood moons thing.   Bookmark this and bring it up in a year, and none of them will acknowledge it.
In thy presence is fulness of joy.
At thy right hand pleasures for evermore.

Ranks right up there with Algore's climate disaster predictions.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Eh... these are okay. If we didn't get the hype about certain dates now and again, it would be much harder to sell a good ol' rapture joke on your friends or co-workers.

Just note, anybody can just toss down some clothing over the chairs while the mark goes to the bathroom or somesuch. Adding some watches and jewelry adds a bit, but if you're really looking to go pro... you'll have to dig through a few eBay auctions like this first.
