Phil Plait's article about the NON-existent doomsday
I thought I should mention this one (I apologize if someone has posted this already)…
"Worried About the End of the World on Dec. 21? Don’t Be." by Phil Plait (Bad Astronomy blog at Slate)
Quote:
The very calendrical basis of the doomsday idea is wrong, the claims themselves make no physical sense and are generally just wrong, and the Maya themselves make no mention of this date being doomsday in the first place.
One's convictions should be proportional to one's evidence. - Sam Harris
