NO!

Spend more time concerning yourself with repentance for the sins of mankind!

Gal 5:
19 Now the works of the flesh are obvious: fornication, impurity, licentiousness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, anger, quarrels, dissensions, factions, 21 envy,[e] drunkenness, carousing, and things like these. I am warning you, as I warned you before: those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

And pray to be spared the wrath of God!

Asteroids... Another consequence of global warming.

(Don’t laugh, some are dumb enough to believe it)

Asteroid or socialism - we’re screwed either way and have no control over it.

Get a pair of cheap binoculars and take a quick peek at the surface of the moon and get back to me.

Truly lousy article. For example:

According to Garvin and his team’s research, there might have been as many as a dozen kilometer-sized asteroids that smashed into Earth, with at least a quarter of them striking land.

For one thing, no time frame is given.

Also, ocean shots are worse than land shots. (I have an original Analog Magazine with the article by J. E. Enever that explained this... somewhere....)

Answer, yes, it has happened before and will most likely happen again and there is absolutely nothing we can do about it. So why worry about it?

Every living creature that ever existed or will exist is alive today, or has already died! The point is we will all die from something, and dying by a asteroid is the least likely way to go so in the grand scheme of thing why worry?

There is no way to really evaluate the risk.
