It's all down in the Book of Revelation and Daniel in the Bible...GOd has His plan for the world and for each one of us...are you on board or are you gonna wait to find out? I highly recommend getting on board with God's plan~!

Boggles my brain.
If I didn't believe in God already, I'd find religion after reading this.
It's simply too much, too large, too grand, to be a accident.

Please forgive the mood I'm in today, but given the current state of world and national affairs, the end of the universe couldn't come a moment too soon!

Didn't the Clinton Administration end by shredding everything already?

The Big Rip Off theory was posted only moments later by Bill Clinton.

Well, I was going to pressure wash and paint the house this
summer. Guess there no point in doing that now.

At this point, there is still a short interval before atoms and even their nuclei break apart. "There's about 30 minutes left," Caldwell said, "But it's not quality time." Understatement bump.

Today, we're all living in a fast-food, throw-away universe type of society anyway.

What if the universe is just a single cell (or the nuclius of a single cell) dividing itself.

Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving
And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour,
That's orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it's reckoned, A sun that is the source of all our power.
The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see
Are moving at a million miles a day
In an outer spiral arm, at forty thousand miles an hour, Of the galaxy we call the 'Milky Way'.
Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars.
It's a hundred thousand light years side to side.
It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand light years thick,
But out by us, it's just three thousand light years wide.
We're thirty thousand light years from galactic central point.
We go 'round every two hundred million years,
And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions in this amazing and expanding universe.
The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding In all of the directions it can whizz
As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know, Twelve million miles a minute, and that's the fastest speed there is.
So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure, How amazingly unlikely is your birth,
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space, 'Cause there's bugger all down here on Earth.
