A History Of Doomsday

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


 
History is full of prophets and seers who have predicted when doomsday will occur.  Nobody has been right so far and it is safe to say by now that nothing will happen to us on the mayan doomsday date of December 21st.  Here is a few other predictions in our history that turned out to be false:
 
The Prophet Hen of Leeds, 1806

History has countless examples of people who have proclaimed that the return of Jesus Christ is imminent, but perhaps there has never been a stranger messenger than a hen in the English town of Leeds in 1806. It seems that a hen began laying eggs on which the phrase “Christ is coming” was written. As news of this miracle spread, many people became convinced that doomsday was at hand — until a curious local actually watched the hen laying one of the prophetic eggs and discovered someone had hatched a hoax.

The Millerites, April 23, 1843

A New England farmer named William Miller, after several years of very careful study of his Bible, concluded that God’s chosen time to destroy the world could be divined from a strict literal interpretation of scripture. As he explained to anyone who would listen, the world would end some time between March 21, 1843 and March 21, 1844. He preached and published enough to eventually lead thousands of followers (known as Millerites), who decided that the actual date was April 23, 1843. Many sold or gave away their possessions, assuming they would not be needed; though when April 23 arrived (but Jesus didn’t), the group eventually disbanded — some of them forming what is now the Seventh Day Adventists.

Mormon Armageddon, 1891 or earlier

Joseph Smith, founder of the Mormon church, called a meeting of his church leaders in February 1835 to tell them that he had spoken to God recently, and during their conversation he learned that Jesus would return within the next 56 years, after which the End Times would begin promptly.

Halley’s Comet, 1910

In 1881, an astronomer discovered through spectral analysis that comet tails include a deadly gas called cyanogen (related, as the name implies, to cyanide). This was of only passing interest until someone realized that Earth would pass through the tail of Halley’s comet in 1910. Would everyone on the planet be bathed in deadly toxic gas? That was the speculation reprinted on the front pages of The New York Times and other newspapers, resulting in a widespread panic across the United States and abroad. Finally even-headed scientists explained that there was nothing to fear.  Source

End times prophecy is a tricky profession and I don’t recommend it and besides most believe that if it does comes..

1 Thessalonians 5:2-4

2 For you yourselves know full well that the day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night. 3 While they are saying, “Peace and safety!” then destruction will come upon them suddenly like labor pains upon a woman with child, and they will not escape.
 
So how could anyone know when it will come. Others think that man will assure their own self destruction as we are a suicidal species.  The building of WMD, war, drugs, disease.  The things we do to one another for greed or out of laziness.  It’s a messed up world and my prediction is that the world will end when out of nowhere a giant asteroid will collide with Earth killing everything on it so ENJOY EVERY MOMENT OF LIFE…  It is precious..  -Mort
