Where do you suppose the term Armageddon comes from?

The meaning isn't well known though. It has nothing to do with Ice or
Glowballs. That stuff is for the four horsemen.

Armageddon concerns human reactions to the things happening.

You might want to check out your facts before you make such silly
comments.


"More generally, it [Armageddon] can also refer to an apocalyptic
catastrophe." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armageddon

Well, Mr Weatherlawyer, it seems that you are also a Sea Lawyer!

As I wrote, no one wants to believe we are heading for an Armageddon,
and most people will try to rationalise it away. But your attempt to
prove that catastrophe in not imminent by disputing the meaning of the
term Armageddon really takes the biscuit.
