    ok looked it up,

    https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/1728165/world-predicted-to-end-in-2017-thanks-to-a-total-solar-eclipse-hitting-america-and-the-uk/
    A GROUP of hardcore Christians has claimed a solar eclipse due to hit the UK and America next year, will bring about an apocalypse.
    The eclipse will plunge countries into darkness and spark the end of the world, doomsayers from Christian website Unsealed have alleged.

    Load of rubbish, but I expect a lot of Irish along with myself will heading to the US to see the solar eclipse.

    Theyve at least got 50% of it right in this :

    Well obviously I'll repost it to all my friends demanding they like and share my hysterical tin-foil hat brigade post immediately lest they want to share equally in the blame for triggering armageddon mkXII...

    ...maybe

    Strange - always ends some time in the future. A post stating it has ended would be way more convincing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,460 ✭✭✭Barry Badrinath


    I hope this isnt just another hoax.

    I cant be dissapointed again :(

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,184 ✭✭✭riclad


    Is,nt there some religious group,
    that claims every year the world will end on day x .
    And theres some eejits that believe them.
    We have earthquake,s ,forest fires and hurricanes in america and global warming .
    And some religious freak has to invent an imaginary disaster .
    It always seem to be americans that say this ,
    maybe europeans are a bit more sceptical .
    Theres probably a rule if you get a certain amount of people on a website ,someone will
    at some time forecast a coming disaster.

    I have a fine T-shirt that says, "I survived the Mayan Apocalypse/December 21, 2012". I used to wear it to drum circle in 2013 to troll my New-Agey friends. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,544 ✭✭✭Samaris


    To raise awareness of imminent armageddon, take a selfie in the most idiotic place possible. The more dangerous it is the better. Anyone who dies will just be leaving before the crowd anyway.

    Tag me in your selfie so I can see what you'll look like at the end of the world!!11!

    Like and share xx hun


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,095 ✭✭✭✭looksee


    Nah, yiz are all wrong, I definitely saw something a couple of days ago that said it was going to end in December of this year. Can't remember exactly what it said and I can't be bothered looking it up again, but you will save on Christmas prezzies this year.

    Edit, despite my apathy I did look it up, and only found a date in October - not sure what is going to happen, just saw the date. However the world was going to definitely, absolutely end on July 29th 2016, which I didn't know about so I missed it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,809 ✭✭✭Speedwell


    There was just a total solar eclipse on March 9 of this year. What was that, a dress rehearsal?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,095 ✭✭✭✭looksee


    Here is a good, authoritative article - http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/who-predicting-end-world-2016-1533414 which will clarify everything. It will really entertain the mathematicians amongst us.

    Fatima 1917 third secret alleges the world would see a major event by 2017. Those secrets could be lot of bollocks, but i remember watching a video on Youtube where a priest who had connections to the Pope had read the secret.He said Ukraine and Russian would be the start of the downward spiral. Its pretty interesting stuff as the Priest is now dead since 1998 and he made the prediction around then. The timeline for the event would be be 2017-18.

    It certainly interesting in light of current events for the last few years.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,235 ✭✭✭✭Cee-Jay-Cee


    When exactly in August as I have a holiday booked for the 14-21st and would hate to miss out on it. Hopefully if it's due to end before that date, they might consider postponing it till after the 21st but not the 22nd as I'll only be arriving home early that morning and will tired and probably spend most of the day in bed.

    I remember the first time I heard the world was ending, in 1988, I was a bit scared, but I was 8. Survived it, so I learned to treat these bs prophesies with the contempt they deserve.

    I just bet a 10er on this and got odds of 1000/1. If it does come true I stand to win a tidy sum.

    Fairly doubtful he would have said Israel or Palestine, seeing as how they didn't exist
