I guess that must mean your so-called god really hated the dinosaurs for that asteroid that DIDN'T fly by but slammed right into the Yucatan 65 million years ago.
My point of mentioning the large comet flying by was not to predict doomsday, but to suggest another possible cause of climate change other than it being manmade.

Because having not been hit by a comet for millions of years...
SUDDENLY not being hit by a comet causes the worldwide climate to change.....
That's taking incoherent nonsense to a whole new level.

The idea is that a large body has a larger gravitational pull than a small body. We already acknowledge that the movement of the moon has effects on the tides and the weather because of the gravitational pull, so why not a large comet or asteroid that is speeding toward earth?

Because the moon as about a trillion times heavier than a 2.5km comet, and 1000+ times closer. [currently]
Making it's gravitational effect more than a million trillion times larger.
And the moons gravitational pull is already pretty weak, and beyond keeping the Earth's axial tilt
stable, has very little effect on the climate. [not no effect, but not much of one]
This coupled with the fact that there is no comet speeding towards the Earth, makes the 'argument'
complete and total bunk.

A knockout blow. Surely that will knock Hinds on his back,...Surely.

Originally posted by RJHinds Well, I guess we will have to wait until September 15-28 to see if what that person was saying is true or not. I do not know myself.
No, as I explained at length in the science forum thread on the same topic [/sigh]
If there was a 2.5km comet due to hit in September that had been detected we would
know about it. And it would be easily visible to anyone who cared to look for months
before it hit.
There is no known comet that is going to hit us on that date.
It's a hoax, beyond any and all reasonable [or unreasonable] doubt.
