My birthday is in September. Frankly I would be fine if it didn’t happen.

But I don’t want the world to end. You do have to admit there’s some weird stuff happening lately. I’m with the dog in the picture, but I’d have my teddy bear with me too..

Yes, it matters if your son and grandchildren are living in Puerto Rico.

If a big enough asteroid or meteor hits the Earth it won’t matter where you live.

NASA says Allah Willing, the world is not going to end in September

There, we must strive for accuracy...

SunkenCiv,

Thank you for the links.

I agree. The world is not going to end in September, 2015.

It won’t end in 2017, either. It can’t. The story in the Bible goes on after the Woman and the Red Dragon.

Blessings to you and your loved ones.

They can't know anything with certainty.

Comet C/2013 V5 Oukaimeden
Figure 5. The SLC of comet C/2013 V5 Oukaimeden exhibits the same Slope Discontinuity Event + dip signature exhibited by the famous comet C/2012 S1 that disintegrated.
This comet exhibits a Slope Discontinuity Event + a photmetric dip. This SDE took place at - 4.03 AU from the Sun, slightly below the orbit of Jupiter.
This is the same type of signature exhibited by the famous comet C/2012 S1 ISON, a comet that we predicted would disintegrate in this same web page and in fact disintegrated.
Thus there are reasons to belive that this comet may also disintegrate as comet ISON did. However, the perihelion distance of this comet is q = 0.62 AU < R(critical) = - 0.63 AU, a distance at which many comets have disintegrated in the past
Thus we conclude by predicting that there is a 93% probability that this comet will disintegrate.
Unfortunatelly the observational circumstances of this comet are difficult. It will remain most of the apparition below elongation angles E < 40º. Thus verifying that the comet disintegrated will be challenging. The comet reaches perihelion on September 28th, and it is expected to disintegrate before that date. What follows is the Elongation angle Sun-Earth-Comet.

Comet C/2013 V5 Oukaimeden: Updated Secular Light Curve (SLC)
Since this comet has a large probability of disintegration, it will be placed in the Observational Priority OP-1-Red category, once it enters the danger zone. It is currently in the Observational Priority OP-2-Orange. Unfortunatelly the comet is currently not observable due to its location inside the Sun's glare. However it will be at E = 54 degrees of elongation from the Sun, on September 1st. At perihelion time, when the probability of disintegration is largest, the elongation will be E = 38 degrees. Thus although observations won't be easy, they will not be impossible.

Did we catch disintegration of comet Oukaimeden? (http://gloria.fzu.cz...GLObal Robotic-telescopes Intelligent Array)

Some things are more important than other things. Some things deserve more time than other things. Some things can not be wrapped up in a 30 second sound bite.

This one deals with whether you live or die and where you will spend eternity.

Your decision. Your choice.

Blessings to you and your loved ones.

I did notice a bit of Mormon dogma in that screed. Trying to attract a wider audience?

Just trying to the right thing, for the right reason, at the right time.

No offense.

Meatloaf is disappointed, he’s been praying for the end of time.
