While idly clicking away on the 'Net, I chanced upon a story the mainstream media is trying to keep secret. [Due to the rare “black moon” phenomenon, the world faces annhilation](http://www.express.co.uk/news/weird/714924/Black-Moon-END-OF-THE-WORLD-JESUS-apocalypse). Expect the second coming of Jesus Christ on September 30, at least in Europe and America — due to time-zone differences, East Asia will not be subject to the Black Moon.

Black moon is a rare astronomical event that occurs less than four times per decade on average; we haven’t suffered one since 2014. The linked page shows other strange recent coincidences linked to the Final Days; for example two “weather-girls” had major wardrobe malfunctions during the same dance, UFOs may be spying on the space station, etc.

Demonstrating objectivity the page does offer a rebuttal from an atheistic cult:

> [@](#):
>
> However, scientists say there is nothing to fear, and the Earth will carry on as normal during and after the Black Moon.

Yeah, sure.

Wait, didn’t the world already end back in 2012?

If you guys had blasted the Moon out of the sky, like I told you to, we wouldn’t be having this problem.

Lip-synced from 1969…  
(Most TV shows preferred this rather than take a chance on a flubbed performance.)

Four times per decade doesn’t sound all that rare. I go to the dentist less frequently than that.
