I decided it was all trash after about halfway down page two. The nurse was a nutcase for sure. She should have been a patient, not a care provider.

With the exception that these sorts of half-wits actually kill themselves this mess does bear some resemblance to many of the Organized Religions of the World.

I think when these people kill themselves we should all rejoice. It is human gene pool cleansing

Did any of you read the entire article? It's actually food for thought, in the respect that there are a lot of similarities between their "insane" thought processes and those of modern organized religions. Killing themselves for a cause, denouncing earthly things to an extreme, gathering in sheltered communities. As a Christian I believe that many of Jesus' similar instructions were more metaphorical, but you can't deny that Jewish people living at the time of Christ would've thought him just as much of a lunatic as we think these people. They killed him for what they considered heresy but we consider binding faith! I'm no heaven's gater, but I won't be so quick to judge these people as insane. More than that, it makes me wonder what sparks such deep devotion to any cause.

Rio mentioned that the earth is going to shift on its axis and many people will die. When asked when that will take place, he said, "in about 6 to 13 years".
2012 perhaps when the Mayan calendar ends. One of the predictions is that, at that time, the earth will shift on its axis.

Totally clear:
1346 is the number!
1346 is the result of number 13 (Bad bad), and 46 the age while Mr Cheney developed a clot somewhere on his anatomy.(kind of bad).
If you subtract this number from the end of the Mayan calendar 2012, guess what.
2012-1346=666. (The apocalyptic number of the beast).
The disturbing part is the beast is still in the loose!
