Also the sun and the moon are of similar size, and there's no such thing as Gravity (the whole earth is just moving up at a constant speed). Also the UN and NASA guard these secrets for their Lucifer-worshipping masters.

To be fair, not a theory, but a well-anticipated fact. That one wasn't wrong because there was no Y2K bug. There was. It's just that it was totally fixable, and got fixed.

For the most part, anyway.

Well it's weird thinking that 19/11 is the day that my NS nation got nuked and was regarded generally as an apocalypse. (Lol I need to mark this little coincidence.)

By the way, I read from some where that people are keen about this the end of the world stuff because it gives their lives some importance or something to live for.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/ ... Earth.html

According to the article, Nibiru or 'Planet X' was supposed to collide with Earth on September 23. It drew too much attention that NASA refuted the claim. Now, the CTs (conspiracy theorists) shifted the date to November 19. The series of earthquakes will be our doom, according to them.

What do you guys think?

As for my opinion, no... just no. This kind of thing has been happening for years, I believe. We will die on *2012, 2013, 2014... it goes on. But hey, if it happens, why worry? If the destruction is on a planetary scale, I sure as heck will not feel anything from it. Besides, if Planet X exists, surely we might have feel extra gravitational anomalies throughout the planet (which we have none of so far); all of the tidal waves are still a result of the Moon, not some planet lurking about.

EDIT: There was actually also a theory where we were supposed to breakdown (or our electronics are going to go crazy) on Y2K (2000), but again, didn't happen, no social breakdown... What I am saying is, end-of-the-worlds are too common. I was only scared about 2012 because I watched the movie when it came out.

In a slightly pessimistic tone, if the end of the world is upon us, it sure as heck will be from us. I mean, have you seen Mad Max?

In short, no, I doubt that it will happen. To be extra sure, I will ask my friend from Australia later in the few hours. :P


Just because Planet X could exist, doesn't mean that it's going to collide with Earth. Just because my neighbor has a trophy wife, doesn't mean that she's going to get me laid, and I'm no fan of the Weinstein Method.
