While our planet may have survived September’s “blood moon”, it will be permanently destroyed on Wednesday, 7 October, a Christian organization has warned.

The eBible Fellowship, an online affiliation headquartered near Philadelphia, has based its prediction of an October obliteration on a previous claim that the world would end on 21 May 2011. While that claim proved to be false, the organization is confident it has the correct date this time.

“According to what the Bible is presenting it does appear that 7 October will be the day that God has spoken of: in which, the world will pass away,” said Chris McCann, the leader and founder of the fellowship, an online gathering of Christians headquartered in Philadelphia.

“It’ll be gone forever. Annihilated.”

Screw it I'm going out for breakfast and give me real cream in my coffee, extra french toast, and I'll have a bloody mary too.
I'll put it on my credit card. What the hell.

1. I guess getting my affairs in order will be very easy Today.

Just carry-on as if nothing happened.

[GummyBearz]

24. I thought it was the end of the world when I woke up Sunday

But it was just a bad hang over... whew.

[panader0]

2. Major planetary alignment: We're doomed again!

10. But then again,

it could actually be signaling the dawning of the Age of Aquarius

[hatrack]

3. 9,457,256th Verse, Same As The First . . .

Blah blah blah blah BLAH.

[yellowcanine]

4. Are they giving their stuff away? Looking for some good backpacking gear.

A good light weight hammock with extra large rain fly to be exact.

[yellowcanine]

5. The nuttery goes on. This guy is a follower of Harold Camping.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_Camping

Harold Camping just before being Raptured.

[gratuitous]

46. I was all ready last time

I was riding in Reach the Beach, wearing bib number 316. I figured I was golden. If I got raptured with my bike, I figured it was the pearly gates for sure. But I thought that if my helmet came with, that was probably a bad sign.

And, since it's already October 7 somewhere on the planet, it appears that Mr. McCann is just as full of shit as his mentor. That makes five or six apocalypses I've survived. These people should really take advantage of the opportunity to shut up more.

[spanone]

6. ok, i'm not washing my car.

[safeinOhio]

7. Throw a virgin into the volcano

Same logic.

[DetlefK]

8. Could you please sign this? - "In case of Armageddon, this person gets all my worldly belongings."

[SwissTony]

9. I wonder if this guy would accept a wager.

I give him $1000 on Tuesday. He gives me $100,000 on Friday.

Of course, he'll jump at the chance. What could possibly go wrong?

[mercuryblues]

11. well this sucks

I made my bed and did laundry already today.

It also might explain why my coffee maker acted up this morning. I surely thought the world was ending, until it finally started brewing.

[SoCalNative]

41. Nah, that's just the last vesitges

of Mercury in retrograde, which ends Oct 9th.

[world wide wally]

12. ...and so forth

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dates_predicted_for_apocalyptic_events

Hers a list of a few other dates the world was supposed to end

[ladyVet]

38. According to that source, I've now been left behind sixty times.

It's not like I'm surprised, heathen that I am, but fuck, that's a lot.

Just think, there's plenty more opportunities for me to see the light and leave this Earthly coil! Whoot! Yeah. Like that's going to happen.

[hifiguy]

59. The big problem is that the fundies are still here.

As Dan Hicks once asked, "How Can I Miss You If You Won't Go Away?"

[TlalocW]

13. The world was supposed to end on September 23

And I'm pissed I didn't know anything about it!

Only learned about it while surfing YouTube, and I came across this video. It's 46 minutes of acute apophenia and Christian worldview conspiracy theory and actually fun to watch on a certain level.

30. OMG-- at 8:15!

"On September 16th, this wicked, wicked woman named MADONNA, has this concert at Madison Square Gardens. And if you follow Madonna at all, and I hope to god you don't, many of her concerts are nothing more than evil satanism. It's almost like she's practicing witchcraft on the stage in all of the ways that they dress up, and it's perverted, it's disgusting, it's not christian!"

Wicked, WICKED woman! She makes me feel funny and think bad things! Eeeeeeeevil!!!

[Arugula Latte]

43. She's like that trollop Zoot! Oh, wicked, bad, naughty evil Zoot!

[BarackTheVote]

64. Maybe this guy is

just too afraid to face the peril

[LongTomH]

47. Scarily reminiscent of Glenn Beck's chalkboard talks, only this was a whiteboard!

Some serious crazy in both cases!!!!

[hifiguy]

50. And these people are running around loose, unsupervised and unmedicated.

Are there no lunatic asylums?

[2naSalit]

54. WOW

Lookit this,

Just in case I change my mind should something actually happen, I guess.

[CanonRay]

14. Damn, my garbage pickup is not until Thursday morning.

[Botany]

Oh wait these doomsday prophets aren't Catholic that explains their idiotic claims... Not to worry Our Lady of the Blessed Holy Rosary will protect us. She will sick the Pope on those crazy nutters and boy won't they be sorry.

Then again maybe not....

[SoCalNative]

42. "Our Lady of the Blessed Holy Rosary will protect us"

Wait..so Kim Davis is gonna protect us?

[niyad]

[Mendocino]

Narf!

[Solly Mack]

[hifiguy]

62. "Oi think so Brain,

[Solly Mack]

[notadmblnd]

27. Well then, there's no sense in setting my garbage out

[onenote]

28. Does anyone know what time this will happen? Trying to arrange my schedule.

[justhanginon]

29. Good to know. My BLT for lunch will now have

1/2 pound of bacon, no, make that 3/4 pounds, may as well use it up. Extra mayo since it doesn't seem to matter. Might as well throw away that bane of my existence that accursed scale since, you know ....... .

[Renew Deal]

31. I thought we were supposed to be wiped out last Wednesday.

[Rhythm]

32. Glad i have the day off today then...

Makes that whole "staying in my PJs all day" thing that much sweeter...

[Marrah_G]

33. thought the world ended on 9/28

You mean this isn't hell? ~Looks around~

[one_voice]

35. No that won't work for me..

Supernatural premiers Wednesday night they're gonna need to reschedule. Again.

[bemildred]

37. Bring it. nt

[joeybee12]

39. Then it's donuts for dinner!

I mean, if nothing else matters after today, then why not?

[Rex]

40. All these sick people, praying for the world to end...

Sick sick sick.

[Arugula Latte]

44. Hey, sorry guys. It's in THE BIBLE so of course it's 100 percent accurate.

It's been nice knowing you all.

[BarbaRosa]

45. Ah man, I wish I had heard about this earlier,

I would have had that swimming pool built by now.

[fadedrose]

48. It ends Wed., Oct. 7, 2015

Wonderful news. I don't have to pay my charge accounts.
Yippee.

[hifiguy]

49. Theyve only been wrong every time for the last 2000+ years

I think astronomers or perhaps geologists would be the people to consult on this issue, not barking-at-the-moon jebus wheezers who play with their own poo.

[SwankyXomb]

52. I'm sure they can prey hard enough to forestall it

assuming a gigantic influx of money from fools.

[MowCowWhoHow III]

53. Be sure to tweet good morning @EndsOct72015 on the 8th !

[2naSalit]

55. Good.

I have to attend a funeral on the 8th that will be a dismal bummer but can't miss.

And I'm out of 1/2 & 1/2 anyway... so I hope it happens before I have to get up for coffee.




And just in case, DU, it's really been real!

[lindysalsagal]

56. Sure am gonna miss you guys...

I'll be in a very very warm place...Hot in fact.

[MindPilot]

57. Hey can you save a place on the rack for me?

I'll be there for sure, what with my non-belief and snarky remarks about religious people and their dumb end-of-the-world predictions!

[Maeve]

58. I'll read the rest of the story Thursday. eom
