Just so ya know, Im not stating this as an actual fact or as something I KNOW is going to happen, OR that I even BELIEVE will happen. Im attempting to share something I once heard about since someone else mentioned the end of the world. I could just have easily posted a link and information about the Christian apocalypse story.

As to your questions and statements about what I wrote: I mostly agree with you, though I don't like your condescending tone.

Why would I believe the world is going to end because a bunch of Mexicans say it will? Im just a college student trying to share things he learns with people I find interesting.
