Apparently, the Bible says we should be hit by a major asteroid in 2012.

And 30m? Child's play.

It was suspicious wasn't it. First they think there's a 1 in 4 chance of it hitting us and then it misses us by 12m kilometres. Considering that the Earth-Sun distance is 92m kilometres that's a big miss. Of course hyperspacing the asteriod could make it look like a much larger miss :D

Yeah, but: [q]And 2004 AS1? It turned out to be bigger than anyone had thought - about 500m wide.[/q]

THAT size would have put a very very large area of the Earth out of commission. :nervous:

Another reason why you should not have long-range plans. ;)
And the Bible said that the Apocalypse would come in 2001.

So ....

The Bible also said that the battle of the Apocalypse would be fought over Jerusalem.
*Notices that the Intifada started in 2001*
