I have been annoyed my entire life listening to all the nuts, insane religious freaks, and crooked scammers who have said to me the world is ending so I must listen to their crazy, made up crap in order to survive! On the religious side, men in “fancy pretend to be holy” clothes direct their mindless brainwashed followers to work as slaves selling their false religious beliefs everywhere. But I know that if you blindly accepting their beliefs then this means enslaving yourself to think the thoughts they tell you to think, it means losing your free will, it means trapping yourself into a lifetime of servitude and financial slavery to these false religious leaders and their flawed organizations. Many religious leaders sell divine goods they do not have - they are not gods, they do not know more then most, they are just men who display no evidence of divine abilities, and they have no divine connections. In the end, they ultimately end up seeking their own selfish interest at the expense of their followers! It sickens me to see all the honest hard working followers sending their life savings to scammers, like many of the TV evangelists who live in their huge selfish mega mansions paid for by selling their lies and their claims of some direct exclusive communication with God. They even go so low as to use the fear of hell, or eternal torment, to scare people into obedience and into financial slavery to them. Then there is the annoying extreme on the other side. There are those persons who reject anything that is considered divine or unknown, like a few smug arrogant scientists. These scientists also deceive the public by pretending to support objective facts, reasoning, and beliefs; but they do not follow the evidence. They are not true scientists. Instead they start with their own strong bias opinions on the unknown, and then they look only for those facts that support what they initially believed. Sadly, many scientists pretend to know as an absolute truth many things which are just their bias opinion about things like God, the universe, and our existence. They state their opinion as an absolute truth to prop up their oversized ego, but really they just bring public shame and lack of trust to the many other legitimate scientists. In this book there is no hidden motive or agenda to trick you into a life of servitude into one of the many false, man made, religious organizations. There is no scientific evidence manipulation to get you to believe the bias point of view of an arrogant egotistical scientist. This book is simply about the evidence that supports a date and a time that the world as we know it will end. The end I speak about is not a doom and gloom end, but it is about the dramatic end to the way mankind will live in the near future. I admit that I will be asserting a few of my own bias opinions here. One opinion is that the world ending probably will mean the beginning of something much better. And I will also assert my personal “suggestions” about how to live a life of kindness and joy. But spoiler alert, I have no crazy cult for you to join! The focus here will be on the evidence that reveals the most important date and greatest news event of all time!
