NASA Faces Off Against Doomsday Rumors (Again)

Link to article: Asteroid will not destroy Earth next month

Blogs and off-beat news sites^[1] have claimed a major asteroid will impact earth in mid-to-late September near Puerto Rico, causing major destruction throughout the region.

But that theory is entirely baseless^[2], NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory said in a post this week, trying to damp down the Doomsday predictions.

Where do these fearmongers get their ideas from, and why do they regurgitate it on the rest of us?

[1] Various websites featuring conspiracy theories, religious prophesies, et cetera.
[2] Just like all of the previous doomsday announcement, this too shall pass uneventfully.

The people who thought the asteroid would hit are absolute lunatics.

Of course, THEY would say that, because....

UFOs (which are really demons that were invoked by geometric sex magic rituals performed by Jack Parsons and El Ron Hubbard using dark secrets uncovered by Aleister Crowley and realizing the ancient plans of the illuminati freemasons using secrets from the templars and reptillian aliens) now concealed in vast tunnels under Denver International Airport (where the Bilderbergers and Rothschilds are plotting to corner the international market for tinfoil hats) are spreading misinformation to confuse the sheeple about what is really going on right under their noses.

At least, that's what they want us to believe.

So are people going to unleash fake ufos on the date when people will think the world will end? I'm not sure if I'm right or not.

get it right, it's the crabs that will take over, not the lizards. sheesh

It may have something to do with an event called "shemitah". There's a Jonathan Kahn (sometimes spelled "Cahn") who links the Jewish Torah commandment to forgive all debt on a regular 7 year cycle, which is called "jubilee", to the phenomenon of four "blood moons" observed every 7 years, an event important to the Jewish calendar which is lunar based. Kahn claims that every seven years there is a "great shaking of the Godless" by YHVH. He links the 9/11 attacks and the subsequent stock market crash to the financial meltdown of 2008. He says that the "Godless" (meaning, of course, Americans) are due for another "shaking". Somebody may have interpreted this as meaning an asteroid impact, although Kahn does not specify what form the shaking will take other than a stock market crash.

In other words, we're doomed because of what somebody thinks is in the Old Testament? I have read it pretty thoroughly, and I don't recall any thing like that.

Are you sure that isn't really about twerking?

They're just attention seekers, that's all. The world literally has billions of them now, and the larger the population grows the more outlandish they'll get trying to 1-up each other for that coveted ego boost.

Don't you think a lot of this is cynical showmen trying to make a buck of believers in some variety of "end times" thinking? I think a lot of these guys are after money more than attention. Book sales. Page views.

One could make the argument they're both the same. In the modern "internet economy" nothing gets sold without a bevy of advertising which is just a paid form of attention seeking-- these goofballs just cut out the middleman.

NASA?

Why believe NASA of all things?

Everyone who watches U Tube KNOWS that NASA is suppressing evidence that there are forests on Mars, alien bases on the Moon, and evidence that the Solar System is geocentric (that Copernicus was wrong, and everything orbits the Earth and not the Sun). Theyre probably also surpressing evidence that the Earth is flat as well.

So why believe NASA?

We all know that EVERYTHING on U Tube is true. Even if it contradicts other videos on U Tube!

That pretty much sums it all up. A religious nutter with no scientific credibility has made up this story to instill fear in his followers and keep them "tuned in" for his next dramatic sermon.

I guess the offering plates have been coming back a little on the low side.

It's a safe bet that when the asteroid fails to make its appearance, Mr. Rodriguez will claim that either "The prayers of the Faithful have been answered" or "God has deferred His judgement for another day" - maybe both - since religious nutters have been making up excuses for their lies since the first religions were formed.

I pity the scientists at NASA.

They all have to spend 90% refuting these rumors started by one crackpot.

Another case of someone who picks out scripture to suit his theology, and blows off the remainder of the Bible because it doesn't support what he 'preaches'. Jesus clearly stated that no one can have foreknowledge of when the world would end, and yet they always seem to miss this little point.

I wouldn't worry about rumors, but NASA was blinded by the rising sun(http://www.npr.org/2013/11/07/243650307 ... ver-russia) in 2013, despite having a very accurate forecast, below.

In just five weeks after this curious forecast was published, a phenomena will occur that will look exactly like a "burning feather in the sky." It will come as "thunder without lighting," at "sunrise," and will land in a "frozen watery landscape," on Valentines Day ... in the forecaster's time zone.

"Cetus" references the sign of the whale, or Jonah.
