You do realize the same predictions were made about the Y2K "disaster-to-be", right?
Most of the Christians I knew at the time did not believe it would be anything dramatic.
Some of us even then and many since view Y2K as a deliberate dry run of The Lord’s engineering to help wake folks up and get them to prepare somewhat for coming traumas.
And, then there are some Christian computer experts who have asserted that if it were not for thousands of hours of corrective efforts . . . on the part of many computer professionals, it could have been a LOT messier.
But, hey, whistling Dixie is a past time of many folks . . .
Even Freepers.
