New end of the world date announced!! Brought to you by Da Vinci - Polidicks

[quote=NEWSFEEEEEED]A date for your diary: Leonardo da Vinci predicted that the world would end on November 1, 4006, according to a Vatican researcher. Sabrina Sforza Galitzia said the clues were to be found in da Vinci’s Last Supper mural. The central half-moon window, or lunette, above his painting of Christ with his disciples before the Crucifixion contains a “mathematical and astrological” puzzle which she has deciphered, she said. She claimed to have worked out that da Vinci foresaw the end of the world in a “universal flood” which would begin on March 21, 4006 and end on November 1 the same year. Documents showed that he believed that this would mark “a new start for humanity”, Ms Sforza Galitzia said. “There is a da Vinci code — it is just not the one made popular by Dan Brown,” she said. Ms Sforza Galitzia, who formerly studied da Vinci manuscripts as a researcher at the University of California in Los Angeles, now works in the Vatican archives. Last year, the Vatican published her study The Last Supper of Leonardo in the Vatican, in which she examined a tapestry of the Last Supper made for King Louis XIII of France, based on da Vinci’s design for his famous mural in Milan. She said she was working on a sequel which would explain da Vinci’s hidden “code”, involving signs of the zodiac and his use of the 24 letters of the Latin alphabet to represent the 24 hours of the day. Da Vinci had seen the story of humanity as leading to “the sum of all things, the final reckoning” described in the Book of Revelations but also by ancient writers such as Plato and Aristotle, she told La Repubblica, an Italian newspaper. He had been a scientist and man of faith who had lived in “difficult times” and had hidden his messages “so as not to be attacked,” she said. The Last Supper, which measures 460cm by 880cm (15ft by 29ft), covers an entire wall at the Convent of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan. Da Vinci began working on it in 1495, and finished it in 1498. It was restored between 1978 and 1999 after it had badly deteriorated. In his 2003 novel The Da Vinci Code, filmed in 2006 and starring Tom Hanks as a Harvard “symbologist” called Robert Langdon, Dan Brown suggests that the figure at the right hand of Jesus in The Last Supper is not the Apostle John but Mary Magdalene, and that she was pregnant with Jesus’ child when he was crucified, and thus carried his bloodline. The novel and film were both attacked by the Church as historically inaccurate as well as blasphemous.

Oh noes.

Not this shit again

newsflash, the world will end when it is engulfed by the sun several billion years into the future.

[QUOTE=Sparkwire;20760093]newsflash, the world will end when it is engulfed by the sun several billion years into the future.[/QUOTE] I thought it was several hundreds of millions?

Oh come on! 4006? That way I'll miss all the fun!

Well if that is actually true then I really don't give a shit because I would be looong dead by then

It was a Vatican researcher, spending time scaring people about the end of the world isn't much of a stone throw from his usual activity of scaring people about the end of the world, and condoms.

no fair

[QUOTE=Exploits;20760100]I thought it was several hundreds of millions?[/QUOTE] Nope, its expected to become a red giant in 5 billion years.

Someone should've told him that a flooding can not happen globally.

god's gonna be confused when he tries to kill everyone in a flood and we're all flying around in our spaceships

[QUOTE=Tu154M;20760144]Someone should've told him that a flooding can not happen globally.[/QUOTE] Yes it can! The bible tells me so, so it must be the truth!

[QUOTE=Sparkwire;20760120]Nope, its expected to become a red giant in 5 billion years.[/QUOTE] Just enough time to finally finish my degree.

[QUOTE=Flashy Cat Guy;20760156]god's gonna be confused when he tries to kill everyone in a flood and we're all flying around in our spaceships[/QUOTE] Or building underwater/stilted cities.

Atleast we won't die in 2 years.

[QUOTE=Rated Heart;20760208]Atleast we won't die in 2 years.[/QUOTE] That doesn't make it any less urgent or important.

[QUOTE=Rated Heart;20760208]Atleast we won't die in 2 years.[/QUOTE] Don't worry, that date's still open for us.

Or on another planet.

[QUOTE=Tu154M;20760144]Someone should've told him that a flooding can not happen globally.[/QUOTE] Isn't global flooding the main reason everybody is so afraid of 'global warming'?

Shit, the world ends on my 2018th birthday. What a downer

a world flooding is impossible, there's not enough water, and even if Noah's Ark was a true story (which it wasn't since it was a rip off of the Epic of Gilgamesh) then it still doesn't make sense since at the end god promised never to do it again.

Oh look, a back up date for the nut cases if the whole 2012 thing doesn't work out.

It could be a meteor strike for all we know. [editline]11:35AM[/editline] Assuming this will happen.
