[quote:Anonymous Coward 380244:MV81MTAyMjJfNzg2NTMyNF85RTM4OTlCRA==] [quote:MissKitty] It seems like every time I see an ad for discovery channel or National Geo. they are showing shows that talk about different ways that the world will end. Everyday they find a new way to kill us off, doesn't seem a little doom and gloom to continue airing these shows? Is it just to make money because people like to watch that or some other agenda? Opinions please. [/quote] Just yet another version of the same old same old fear-mongering END-TIME HOAX, aka Armageddon. People spend more money when they are frightened, apart from anything else. They also become more docile, and make bad financial decisions, based on the fire sale mentality, if the end is coming up. This all was also prevalent in the 19thC with religions. [/quote]
