I really did not buy into any of this end of the world business.  Mostly it is because of the common ‘no man knows…’ provision.  It is also the method of trying to find some hidden mathematical code or pattern to calculate the time.  So I had no faith in this whatsoever.

Yet, I live in a ward where everyone seems certain the end is VERY near.  For many of them, 5/21 could have been the day.  Or 5/22 or /23.  But sometime soon.  So why not?

I am probably not a good test case, because I had not faith in the 5/21 prediction, but I didn’t do anything differently.  And I am not sure that I would have done all that much differently even if I thought the end was likely.  I did some yard work, helped my wife with the house, went golfing, had some ice cream, made taco salad, did some grocery shopping, studied my Sunday lesson, read some Kierkegaard.  Not a bad day at all.  I am not sure I would change a thing, even if it would have been the last day.

How about you?
