Since last February, tons of people online have spread a massive Scam, oops I mean conspiracy theory, that says that an asteroid is going to hit the earth near Puerto Rico in September 2015, causing a massive Tsunami that will devastate the US East Cost. It's ridiculous how far this has spread in 5 months. People are believing it like wildfire. It's all over youtube, people posting videos claiming it will happen, in the hundreds... It's become the next doomsday panic online... But don't trust it because it's not remotely trustworthy.
The Original claim came way back sometime in 2014, by a self-proclaimed "prophet", Effraim Rodriguez. He claimed God told him through voices in his head that an asteroid was going to hit Puerto Rico sometime before the end of 2014. Obviously his prediction was false, so he changed it to the next year (2015). This "prediction" is not remotely trustworthy because his initial "prediction" is complete horseshit! It never hit before the end of 2014, therefore the next one won't hit at all.
It's spiraled out of control since then. People started repeating his crazy theory ad nasuem, even though they should have never given him attention at all. It got all over sites all over the internet. People in conspiracy circles started to say that because a french politician warned "we have 500 days to fix climate chaos", on may 13, 2014, the world would end 500 days later, on september 24 2015.
This lead to claims that President Obama was briefed and other horsecrap that came from the scam artists, oops, I meant "Prophet's" mouth...
Only one slight little problem with that "claim" that the french minister nonsense, is that 500 days from May 13 2014, is actually september 25 2015! NOT the day they said the world would end on, the 24'th...
If this prophet's claim was real, we would have all seen the supposed asteroid by now. It would have been seen by at least one skywatcher looking through a telescope. There is no way they wouldn't see it. We would know by now that the asteroid is coming. Since no one on Nasa (no they aren't covering up the Asteroid's Existance, they cannot control astronomers!) has said such an asteroid exists in the Near Earth Objects Table, therefore the asteroid is fake.
You even get people trying to claim the above Near Earth Objects Table HAD the asteroid listed at one point on it, but Nasa Covered it up! It's completely Ludicrous, to assume NASA would cover up something like this, IF it were real. It's not.... Don't believe the nonsense People...
