Internet Muppets: A story about a 2.5 mile wide comet on a collision course with Earth has gone viral.
The story, circulating on blogs and social media, is that next month between 15 – 28th September, the “Armageddon” asteroid will hit Puerto Rico, destroying much of the Atlantic and Gulf coasts, creating a 200-foot tsunami which will devastate America.
And from where does this alarming prediction originate, you may well ask? Is it from NASA’s Near-Earth Object office at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California, where they are able to track Potentially Hazardous Asteroids (PHAs) for the next 100 years?
No, even better than that! It comes from an internet evangelist Rev. Efrain Rodriguez, who claims that “Jehovah God of the Universe Himself showed me a huge rock entering through the sky in the municipality of Arecibo in Puerto Rico”, and that “this impact will produce a large wave, which will enter into areas where Satanists sacrifice newborn babies.”
He goes on to say that the earth will stop rotating for 3 days, and there will be one year of famine and drought, and that this is Jehovah’s retribution on us for prostituting ourselves, and for adultery, homosexualality and practicing witchcraft…
So I think it’s safe to come out of the bunkers now.
