The real reason why the Presidental Alert happened at 2:18.

The Bible is not a cryptogram. The author of 1st John wrote in the 1st century, while verses were numbered for scholarly purposes in the 16th century.

This post is clearly a cryptogram. The numbers in it are 1, 1, 16. The first "1" evidently refers to Genesis, whose verse 1:16 says "And God made two great lights, the greater one to RULE the day, the lesser one to RULE the night, and he also made the stars". Which of course refers to two a dual government, one that operates in broad daylight while the other one operates in the shadows.

Wait a sec folks, I think this post is the real cryptogram. See, he uses 3 sentences, starting with the letters T, T, and W. Converted from base 36, these become 29, 29, and 32. Joel is the 29th book of the Bible, and Joel 2:9 reads as follows:

Grain offerings and drink offerings
are cut off from the house of the Lord.
The priests are in mourning,
those who minister before the Lord.

Clearly, the Lord is displeased and no longer happy with us, meaning that we have gone against him for too long and he will soon exact his retribution upon the world. And what of Joel 3:2? Well, it couldn't be clearer:

I will gather all nations
and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat.
There I will put them on trial
for what they did to my inheritance, my people Israel,
because they scattered my people among the nations
and divided up my land.

God believes we've forsaken him, and the holy celestial fire from whence the seraphim were forged will soon rain furious and righteous upon us all. The nine choirs of angels shall judge us us unworthy and raze our cities to the bedrock. Repent. WWG1WGA

More than agreed. Then again, God will torture unbelievers when the world ends and that can't be too nice.

[Geneviev]

God is laughing at us. You know he has to be.

He probably is laughing at how he left the stuff so cryptic yet so obvious for when the times comes but when false times occur alarm bells occur.

Sick bastard, he must be eating popcorn and absolutely adoring the drama, even the pope fights and religious wars.

God must really, really, really enjoy WBC for that matter. And the Mayan calendar one must have been hilarious.

Anyone else low key get excited for end of the world conspiracies?

I mean feel like I'm a faithful Christian, but then again if the God of the kind of people who push these theories is the real God I'm probably screwed tbh

Same! I love the ones that go ridiculously in-depth, they're fascinating

Not me, till recently. This world is going to a hellhole again, and it would be better for us all if we don't experience it in full.

They're generally entertaining. Not as good as the gay frogs, but still funny.

I still fail to understand why people whine about 2:18 for something that happened at 14:18. Oh well.

There are only two types of people in this world - people with 12 hour clocks and people with 24 hour clocks.

I also get the end-of-the-world stomach butterflies whenever I hear Nibiru is impacting the Earth next year or that the evil rich man cabal plans to add cyanide to their chem trails.

Luckily my tinfoil hat protects me from catching the stupid.

If the world is ending, I hope to goodness my electronic gadgets will survive. Maybe I will finally get around finishing my factbooks for once.

If I die in a fiery explosion though? Meh.

[Davinhia]

Here's my already stated two cents
this is just conspiracy garbage. Really no truth to it.

[Othelos]

The reason? American Horror Season 8 gave the administration the idea to do the alert.

[Isilanka]

You know, maybe the great conspiracy is that there's no conspiracy.

[Big Jim P]

Oh boy! Is the world going to end again? This time for real, right?

*Yawn* Wake me up when it's over, would you?

[Marginal Territory]

The time has come. May the Lord bless us all.

No, because that would allow us to know the hour, which we can't do.

Conspiracy: entire world is just a HOI4 map, and soon someone will ascend to peer down upon it and change the course of history.

Soon someone will open the console and spawn Jan Mayen.

Zombie apocalypse caused by a top secret virus that the government has been developing, to me at least, seems like the most interesting.

The government being in cahoots with smexy aliens to steal us away for breeding purposes also sounds hot horrifying.

I remain firm in my belief that a zombie apocalypse just wouldn't happen. By the time zombie apocalypse preppers have finished attaching all their anti-zombie weapons to the inside of their black trenchcoat, the government would have just kettled all the zombies like rowdy protesters and that'd be that.
