Blood moon/ supermoon next month and apocalypse? 1

The moon is going to turn red next month, and it could mean the end of the world

Quote:
Get the bunker stocked up, we're going to need it.
In the wee hours of September 28th we will experience one of the darkest and brightest moons of the year.
At roughly 2 A.M. the moon will be closer to Earth than normal, causing it's shine an extra bright white and become what is known as a 'Supermoon'. Yes, we know it sounds like a child named it, but that's what we're dealing with.
Anyway, the Supermoon won't last for long, as it will then be eclipsed by 4.30 A.M. when the Earth stands directly between it and the Sun. This is expected to last for about an hour and a half, during which time the sun's rays will bend around the Earth, causing the moon to develop a coppery hue, creating a "Blood Moon".
This will be the fourth Blood Moon in a little over a year, which isn't a good thing if you believe the Christian ministers John Hagee and Mark Blitz, who claim that this is a sign that the world is ending.
Supposedly four Blood Moons, and six full moons in between them, which has actually happened this year, is a sign the apocalypse could be on the way, as was predicted it the Book of Revelations.
Due to the moons close proximity, its effect on the oceans will be stronger than usual, thus causing floods of biblical proportions.
The only thing is, the UK National Tidal and Sea Level Facility say that even though tides will rise, it'll only be by about and inch, maybe two. Hardly biblical.
Sounds like a load of nonsense to us, but we're stocking up on bottled water and twinkies just in case. And if the four horsemen don't turn up, we'll just have a gawk at the pretty moon and eat some twinkies. Win win.
Thoughts? Pretty ridiculous article, can't wait for the moon though. Anyone catch it tonight? It was amazing.
-------------------- Don't worry about me, I've got all that I need. And I'm singing my song to the sky You know how it feels, With the breeze of the sun in your eyes. Not minding that time's passing by I've got all and more, My smile, just as before. Is all that I carry with me I talk to myself, I need nobody else. I'm lost and I'm mine, yes I'm free

I don't give a shit enough to go looking it up, I'd like to see this so called scripture that predicts this is a sign of the end though.
I'm betting it's not going to be a precise statement. It's not going to be something specific. It's gonna be some random passage with a hundred different ways to interpret it.
Yes I saw the moon tonight. I was doing a drive cycle on my car to get it ready for inspection and that damn thing kept distracting me. Was so big and bright that even after I established what it was I saw out of the corner of my eye the first time, I kept having to look and see wtf that weird out of place light was. Nearly caused me to wreck at one point

I look forward to it, I think it's going to be beautiful.
Don't think anything sinister of it, I had a good time with the last blue moon.

These end of days things come up all the time. Pretty hard to believe any of them.
I posted one not too long ago about how the Sun is going to to go into a very dormant state and that we're looking at the new ice age. I didn't really buy into it. I mean I won't discount any possibility on pretty much anything. Even 1 in a billion chances do happen.
I don't really know enough about it to be able to disprove it, so came here and let everyone else do it (which they did a great job ).
Our days are numbered, at least as far as life as we know it goes. Short of finding new homes, there is no escaping the reality that at some point this planet is going to be rendered lifeless. Assuming we avoid all the lesser candidates (direct GRB from a near by star, huge meteorites, planets colliding with us [which isn't even a crazy thought. Earth is what it is because of such an event]) etc etc. If we some how manage to skip all of that shit, in several billion years the Sun will expand and with consume both Mercury and Venus. Whether that growth rate ends up consuming Earth as well, it's a matter of debate. We are close enough that it is a possibility. Even if it doesn't get quite that far, it will make this planet completely uninhabitable.
End of days is coming at some point. It's just the how and when we're uncertain on. Different people/places will tell you different answers of what that time table is. You will get ranges of 4 billion years, to over 7 billions years. That is a very wide discrepancy. The Earth and our solar system are only about 4.5 billion years old.

A couple years ago i went to a bonfire at a friends house so i decided to eat some acid. While i was there i found myself thinking "the moon looks so big and different, why's it look so cool".
Everyone else was pretty drunk, and were telling me i was just tripping. Next morning my friend (who wasn't at the bonfire) texted me, saying we should have tripped last night, there was a supermoon and it would have been awesome.

I've heard of the supermoon 'phenomenon' relating to the end of the world on a few of those 'the end is near' TV shows.
Frankly I have bigger concerns than this but it's still pretty neato to look at.

I love when life works out like that.
I was feeling the desire to trip last night but ended up not then I realized it was a supermoon and wished I had.

No, the earth will not end but things will happen. The worldwide financial crisis keeps coming closer to a total meltdown, it almost happened when china devalued the yuan and their stock market tanked. Its been propped up by heroic means but that won't last long. Smart money is getting out of stocks.
Since the powers that be will never allow things to crash totally, most likely there will be massive printing of money with nothing behind it. Sort of like what we have been doing. At some point the demand for fiat will fall way below supply and inflation will take off like a rocket.
That's all, no biggie unless you have to work for a living.

Blood moon is aka lunar eclipse. Nothing new under the moon, same old Earth that occasionally gets in the way of the sun. If that is the end of the world it's a pretty arbitrary marker. Yet again apparently this God character likes to play silly games because only the most gullible and prone to flights of fancy should be spared from eternal pain and suffering

It is not just the blood/super moon. If you bother to read the article: Quote:
Supposedly four Blood Moons, and six full moons in between them, which has actually happened this year, is a sign the apocalypse could be on the way, as was predicted it the Book of Revelations.
It is 4 blood moons with 6 full moons in between idk a lot about astrology but that seems potentially pretty rare.

Here is something interesting that came up from a quick search: Quote:
The teaching of the four blood moons has recently captivated the attention of the religious world. This teaching states that, when four consecutive blood moons fall on Jewish feast days, a major event affecting the Jewish people will occur in close proximity to that time.
This phenomenon of four consecutive blood moons coinciding with Jewish feast days has only occurred ten times since 1 AD and only three times since 1492 AD. The three times since 1492 are as follows:
Tetrad of 1493-1494 Tetrad of 1949-1950 Tetrad of 1967-1968
Major events affecting the Jewish people have occurred in close proximity to all three of these tetrads.

Has anyone tried stabbing a virgen with a gold and silver dagger during these events or beheading a goat?

Pretty much what I expected some scripture to say about it. "Something big is going to happen". Then they can just point to some random event and go "The moons caused it!"

If your Jewish you better watch out, yeah, cause this guy doesn't know if this is a significant happening or not, but he thinks it might be because he read an article.
What of the fact that these predictions aren't actually acurate? What about the Tetrads where nothing significant happened in Jewish history? What of the fact that Jews have a lunar calendar that would kinda explain why their holidays often correspond with lunar events?
Why isn't any of this mentioned in the article? The information is out there. It doesn't seem like they're being selective with what information they provide to back up these prophecies to you?

The article is a pretty clear attention grab I just thought it was funny and somewhat interesting 
At least they end it with this: Quote:
