Every time I read of these projected near misses, I think of a bumper sticker seen a few years ago - “God’s back, and BOY is he mad!”

Hebrews 10:31 (KJV)

It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

If an asteroid of this size was to enter our atmosphere, it would have a similar effect to the Chelyabinsk meteor, which exploded in an air burst over Chelyabinsk Oblast, Russia, in February 2013.

Let's try that again:

If an asteroid of this size was to enter our atmosphere, it would have a similar effect to the Chelyabinsk meteor, which exploded in an air burst over Chelyabinsk Oblast, Russia, in February 2013.

Well, no, that depends entirely upon the composition of the asteroid. It might burn up, it might explode or it might make a pretty nice divot if it hits dry land and it wouldn't be very pleasant to be nearby if it did.
