Rant #1

I have decided the direction of this blog is going to be Crazy Ranting Girl Takes On a Question of the Day. I know, I know. Who wants to read about that? Well, I want to write about it so deal with it. So the first thing you may ask is where are these questions coming from? Ok, I am a huge fan of the search engine. ANY search engine. It's where I always start my research and this time is no different. First I typed in "questions" and got very lame results. So, instead I looked under the news section and decided that the question today will be: "What was that preacher guy thinking?"

OK, so most of us know what I mean by that question but for those who have been living under a rock for the past few weeks I will elaborate. So, there is this preacher who owns a Christian radio station who predicted that the world would end.. well... 3 days ago! And seeing as I am writing this blog that obviously didn't happen. Well, NOW he changes his mind and says that the world is under Judgement right now and the end will come on MY BIRTHDAY! WTF!? I thought I would at least make it to thirty but according to this guy I will barely make it past 28. Ok, Ok... so obviously you know my stand point. This guy is nuts!! I mean, I have gone through a few "religious" phases in my life and I think its perfectly natural to believe in a higher being. Otherwise it gets a little scary thinking "Why are we here?" But, since I am only supposed to rant over one questions we will leave that question for possibly another rant.

I mean, I feel awful for these people who donated TONS of money to this guy so that he can spout off a bunch of nonsense. Putting up billboards and pocketing (I am sure) a lot of dough. But, if you honestly thought the world was gonna end in 2012.. well... yeah. So after the world so obviously didn't end this guy was "flabbergasted", I mean.. his 'calculations' had to be correct right? WRONG! Then he needed some "time" to think (or maybe come up with some excuse) about why he was wrong. And now he says that the math was wrong and its ending on October 21st now. Whew.. good save, right? HA! What happens when we wake up on October 22nd and the birds are chirping, the sun is shining and we still have to get out of bed and live? I guess he will eventually be forgotten (hopefully) just as Y2K has faded from my consciousness. Until Next Time... XOXO
