Quote by: loser ABSOLUTELY! Actually, it's what God has planned for humanity all along. In Revelation, the city-ship New Jerusalem is described and even measured. It is basically a cube or sphere measuring about 1400 miles in each direction (or diameter). That is really, really big! It's going to crack open the earth when it lands upon it...split apart the tectonic plates that make up the Great Rift Valley. As Neil Young put it in "After the Gold Rush": ...Well, I dreamed I saw the silver Space ships flying In the yellow haze of the sun, There were children crying And colors flying All around the chosen ones. All in a dream, all in a dream The loading had begun. They were flying Mother Nature's Silver seed to a new home in the sun. Flying Mother Nature's Silver seed to a new home. Mankind is ignorant, religious or not. Many are called but few are chosen.

So you use a Neil Young song and a passage from a story book to predict the future of mankind. Brilliant.

So, when well-meaning (but oh, so ignorant) scientists fly a probe into an approaching comet or asteroid (as they recently did), they inadvertently (and ever so slightly) altered its trajectory so that it has begun an inexorable countdown to a future but imminent impact with Earth. Way to go, retards!

Funny how no one has heard about this major earth endangering event except for you. Why don't you post a link to this story, that is if it actually exists and its not just some more made up garbage on your part.

Also, if what you're blathering about IS true, then this big asteroid that the 'evil scientists' have set on a collision course with us would be your 'New Jerusalem'. So why don't you find a scientist and shake his hand.

Destruction of Planet Earth is one reason.

Why don't you elaborate on how living underwater would destroy the earth, that is unless you have made, gasp, yet ANOTHER baseless assertion.

Nothing could be further from the truth. Space travel is a prevalent, recurring theme in the Bible. What? You think God and company are hiding on the Earth?

So God...lives in space...right...

Would guidance from a higher intelligence help?

Like who? Oh, god. Right.

Not if, when!

I know that I already know the answer to my own question, but do you realize the chances of a meteor large enough to destroy the earth making a dead on hit to us are actually quite slim? Not that I would expect you to know about astronomy, or as I imagine you call it, devilonomy. Besides, there are many other lovely ways for us to be destroyed by space. Gamma blasters for instance, or drifting into a cloud of cosmic dust.
We will most likely destroy ourselves with Nukes well before any of that happens anyway, so I wouldn't worry about any asteroids.

Not dumb, just unknowledgeable. Actually, this expansion in the universe will take place AFTER the return of Jesus and AFTER any judgments upon mankind. The Earth will be thrown out of its orbit around the sun into the deepest, darkest regions of space (outer darkness), thus becoming uninhabitable. This will pull Mars and Venus (and, in fact, all of the other planets, though to a lesser degree) into new orbits around the sun, changing their gravities, atmospheres, etc. and probably making them inhabitable. It'll be all good.

Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong! You obviously have zero knowledge of how the cosmos function. Even IF some nonsense magical force threw earth into the Oort cloud, that would only slightly alter the orbits of the other planets, and thats only if earth passed near to them on its way out. It would not be able to pass close enough to Mars AND Venus, unless there is some way for Jesus to make the earth take some roundabout path. To top off your wrong cake, moving the orbits of mars or Venus would not magically make them habitable. Pick up a book for christ sake.

Even terrestrial-born changes such as those caused by volcanoes and earthquakes can have tremendous, life-changing impact upon life on earth. An impact by a comet or asteroid could have devastating results. Such an impact (two, actually) is recorded in the Bible. The results? Cataclysmic! The earth's rotational speed will be increased such that a day will be shortened to 16 hours! This means, of course, that the asteroid/comet will come in from the west and hit the Earth at an extreme angle (glancing blow). Amazingly, all life on Earth will NOT be destroyed, though a huge percentage WILL die.

Who told you that? A little talking bird? Or was it another one of your storybooks?

I believe that man has already started the countdown (by meddling in things which he doesn't understand). Read here: Special Report on Comets and Asteroids - New Scientist Space

How is looking at a meteor that has landed on earth or looking in the sky at a comet meddling with things we don't understand? Comets are big chunks of ice hurtling through space. Meteors are chunks of minerals that come from space and hit the earth. No misunderstanding there.

Plus it would be good to finally go home...

The same home that those hale-bop people went to?
