Weren’t there some people worried about the end of the world with the most recent solar eclipse?

Jesus. You can’t even see a solar eclipse everywhere when it does happen. Travel really does broaden the mind, I suppose.

Sounds reasonable. If the sun gets stuck behind the moon there we’d be toast because we need light to see stuff and where we’re driving.

I didn’t see it, so I think I would be fine.

We might need light for a few other things, too. :)

I was in the path of totality. Which was amazing, but there were a LOT of people crowing about “something” happening during/after the Eclipse.

Was it the occultation ceremony? Please, not the occultation ceremony.

I wish they were right because it would be awesome if all religious fundies were taken somewhere else. Too bad they often aren’t good people and many, if not most, would end up being left behind. Imagine the tantrums when they realize they’ve missed the rapture. I bet we’d see a rise in Satanism that wasn’t just a front to challenge Christian bias in religious rights but instead a rebellion against a god that spurned them. And then I wonder if they’d be surprised that atheists still want nothing to do with them.
