Mission Almost Accomplished
Posted by Jill | 8:41 AM
Looks like God's Anointed Architect of the Rapture is a bit closer to realizing his dream of singlehandedly hastening the return of his messiah:

The keepers of the "Doomsday Clock" plan to move its hands forward next Wednesday to reflect what they call worsening nuclear and climate threats to the world.

The symbolic clock, maintained by the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists, currently is set at seven minutes to midnight, with midnight marking global catastrophe.

The group did not say in which direction the hands would move. But in a news release previewing an event next Wednesday, they said the change was based on "worsening nuclear, climate threats" to the world.

"The major new step reflects growing concerns about a 'Second Nuclear Age' marked by grave threats, including: nuclear ambitions in Iran and North Korea, unsecured nuclear materials in Russia and elsewhere, the continuing 'launch-ready' status of 2,000 of the 25,000 nuclear weapons held by the U.S. and Russia, escalating terrorism, and new pressure from climate change for expanded civilian nuclear power that could increase proliferation risks," the release reads.

The clock was last pushed forward by two minutes to seven minutes to midnight in 2002 amid concerns about the proliferation of nuclear, biological and other weapons and the threat of terrorism.


Gee, if Crawford Caligula keeps it up, maybe Jesus will come riding in on his Big White Horse brandishing his Big White Phallic Sword before the year is out. Or more likely, we'll just have global nuclear war, and as Bush is sitting in his bunker in D.C., with no Jesus in sight, he'll say "But Billy Graham told me it was all true!"
