Ok, hold the phone! I am amused, but bewildered at the same time. If gravity doesn't exist, what is holding our asses onto Mother Earth?

To be fair, I would actually love it if we can turn off gravity... for most parts. I mean, you can fly and float, but at the same time, no gravity = drift into space = POP goes our head.

Jesus arranged for trillions of angels to float around and push everything down. Each of the stars is in the sphincter of an Arch Angel.

Black Holes occur when an angel had too much spicy food.

Not the weirdest religious dogma I ever had the pleasure to read, even though there is a reasonable chance that you are making it up on the spot.

That’s because the surface temperature of the deathworld is so stunningly cold as a result of its normally distant orbit. Nibiru must have stopped through your town like some interplanetary Santa Claus. Maybe it wanted coffee.

Yeah. That's actually a good idea. "I survived the Apocalypse" is a great T-shirt slogan. To be honest, we'll probably be seeing predictions like this 'till the end of time.

With no gravity, Earth would explode due to its own angular motion.

Humans do cause a effect to the climate, but it is incredibly small scale. Natural disasters cause more damage, then humans do. I'm talking about those who think the worlds going to end in 50 years unless we change our ways.

Nibiru is Tony Romo: Started off with great promise then started getting sacked repeatedly and will eventually be replaced by a fresh upstart.
Crimes committed by Muslims will be proof of a pan-Islamic plot and Islam's inherent evil. On the other hand, crimes committed by non-Muslims will merely be the acts of mentally ill lone wolves who do not represent their professed belief system at all.
The probability of someone secretly participating in homosexual acts is directly proportional to the frequency and loudness of their publicly professed disapproval and/or disgust for homosexuality.
If Donald Trump accuses an individual of malfeasance without evidence, it is almost a certainty either he or someone associated with him has in fact committed that very same malfeasance to a greater degree.

Which is why the Jehovah's Witnesses are such a depressing sect to belong to. Fear for the end of the world is basically the only reason to belong to that congregation of joyless buzzkills, but our silly planet just keeps on turning.



That and the fact that they don't celebrate Halloween, Christmas, Easter, Birthdays, ect.

No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is
the worst form of government, except for all the others that have been tried from time to time." -
Winston Churchill, 1947.
