Lessons won't be learned though, the vast majority will just swallow wholesale whatever end-of-the-world prophecy next comes along, because if a YouTube video says so, it must be true.

This thread and your name have one thing in common, epic fail! The next alignment is not today as you claim. Don't make any plans for October 28, it's gonna be a hell of a show.
Well it WAS only a theory.
Theories are not put forward as facts.
I use the Mayan 9th Wave and Timewave Zero and based on both of these its not the 26th-28th......Its OCT 1.
My guess it has nothing to do with any planets but financial collapse and then war within 60 days. /quote]
This should garner another thread when this wild guess also fails.
What will the excuse be then? Let's see.
Oh yes, it was nothing more than a theory - actually just another wild guess.

You then create a thread that is designed to bash people for theorising some possible events based on certain observations?
You are on a website that is designed to attract people that look at alternative theories. If these events do not come to fruition then it is plausible that Elenin was nothing more than a 'dirty snowball', but don't waste your time preaching to conspiracy theorist's on a website that will always attract them in massive numbers. It is unproductive and quite frankly uncalled for.

So you think that people should get a free pass to post nonsense at ATS where the motto is "Deny Ignorance"?
I would also add, that those who religiously cling to "official" scientific sources, and never question the mainstream, do so to their own detriment. It is those who have questioned scientific consensus in the past, and were criticized for it, that have gifted mankind with leaps in understanding the world, and the universe we live in.
Scientific consensus isn't necessarily scientific fact.

Scientific consensus isn't necessarily scientific fact.
A fact is based on a consensus of thinking. It is not truth, but rather what is believed to be correct.
You should learn more about science and how science works. To suggest it is like religion is false. Scientists check and double check and that is how mistakes are found or refinements are made.
Well it WAS only a theory.

Science at work.
That's what this is.
An observation was made. Earthquakes appear to closely correlate with Elenin alignments with the earth and the sun. This is a fact.
A hypothesis is made. Elenin is causing earthquakes when it lines up with the earth and the sun at the same time.
An experiment is conducted to prove or disprove the hypothesis. Predict an earthquake to occur during the next alignment. This is very similar to how Einstein's General Relativity Theory was tested. We wait for an astronomical alignment, observe the outcome, and determine if the data supports the hypothesis.
The experiment is being conducted now. It's still to early to tell. The experiment is ongoing, but we have the likes of stereologist who jump the gun and bash people's integrity and call them non-scientist before the experiments are complete.
Typical pseudoscientist response,"shoot the messenger.". He doesn't want to use the scientific method, but rather relies on his own conjecture. When someone who claims to be a scientist refuses to allow the experiment to be performed before developing and pursuing preconceived ideas, the scientist is not a scientist, but a preacher. Time to quit your day job and pursue your calling as a theologist.
