The End of the World is This Week, Say “Scholars” Who Were Wrong About It All Those Other Times

At the 2012 Reason Rally, there was rain.

This weekend, we might have to prepare for something more drastic:

As four years after the deadline for the end of the world (as set by the Mayan calendar) came and went without incident, scholars across the world have been trying to put their heads together to understand how the advanced knowledge of the Mayans had gone wrong.

Modern day scholars were the ones who got the date wrong. A series of miscalculations led to the faulty date, which has now been revised to five days from today, June 3-4 this year!

There’s math involved, too. None of it makes any sense, but you know… numbers.

It was nice knowing all of you.

Someone eat one of Ray Comfort‘s Subway sandwiches for me.
