Echo 199

This is scientific observation and measurement. Actually, it predicts the end of the creation cycle on that date, not specifically the end of the Earth. That would make this fall under the category of religion. It boils down to realistic observation vs. religious prophecy, which are completely different things. It's like saying that because a weatherman can forecast the weather, he can also tell you the exact date the world is going to end, thousands of years in advance. On a somewhat unrelated note, on December 21, 2012, I think I'm going to go outside and flip off the sun.
