The reason for adding a leap second is that the planet does not rotate exactly once every 24 hours (86,400 seconds). The rotation actually takes 86,400.002 seconds so that each day this little difference builds up between the atomic clock and the earth's rotation... so do you still think we are ok???
I'm pretty sure the odds are in our favor that we (the human race) will be here till Hashem decides it's time to bring in the new heavens and new earth! I'm not terribly worried over it.
Totally wrong.
Water weighs more than land. Land mass grouped together is counter weighted by the water on the other side. The earth was balanced although because man, by creating dams or by changing that balance, created an imbalanced earth. You add that much water weight to a small area, by law of physics, it has to affect the spin of the earth. It is because of the balance of the earth that the continents are still fairly bunched together
Scientists are perfectly willing to believe in changes in orbit, axial tilt, planetary collisions, and so on, provided there is evidence for them.
Thousands of "scientists" have PhD's and believe in evolution - that does not make them right.
Dam up water in an area of the earth that never had that much water and you get earthquakes and an imbalance which will cause a chance in spin of the earth. Three Gorges dam, as well as other dams, have submerged areas where there was no earth so the claim "dirt weighs more than water" in debunking what I stated is nothing more than lunacy. The water behind the dam is on top of the earth and is not replacing dirt. It is an addition and not a replacement.
I'm through with this forum.
This is a long but good article on this subject. So many think this is such a non-event, and well it could end up being just that, yet for someone who doesn't believe in coincidences this sure seems to be something to take notice of.
shalom,

".....date of the Mayan calendar. While it is being promulgated that it is to end on December 21 of 2012, it has been released for some time now that it's end or reset date actually falls on October 28 of 2011."
It wll be exactly 7,000 years from the day of the flood to Oct 21, 2011. Even God said himself in the old testament “A day is to a thousand years and a thousand years is to a day and in seven days I will destroy this world with water”. so as to suggest in 7,000 years he will destroy the world again except with fire.
Genesis 7:9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah. 10And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth. 11In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
2 Peter 3:8
But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
It is interesting to note that it is on the agenda for the United Nations to be discussing and voting on dividing Israel to create a Palestinian state sometime during the month of September. Could it be divine appointment that the Father divides the land of the nations - that divides His? There is no news out on how the UN meeting went on Sept 20th. What we do know is that the Palestinian president on Friday formally asked the United Nations to recognize a state of Palestine, defying U.S. and Israeli opposition.The UN will vote Sept. 20th whether to admit Palestine as a new member state,
I just finished the article (it is long, took me over 2 days to get it read) but it was quite interesting. Thanks for posting it.
"The satellite's orientation or configuration apparently has changed, and that is now slowing its descent," NASA officials wrote in a status update Friday morning. "There is a low probability any debris that survives re-entry will land in the United States, but the possibility cannot be discounted because of this changing rate of descent."
good info...but you know what amazes me...there are still people who can not see the hand of God in our world... slowing it down or speeding it up.Just checked on the latest news about the falling satellite.
Early this morning they said it was going to fall out over the ocean and miss the US this afternoon.
Then I heard about the reaction of the UN to the Palestinian asking for recognition for statehood. (Much applause was reported)
Now NASA is saying that the satellite has slowed down, did not enter our atmosphere yet and now may hit the US tonight or tommorow early.
Coincidence?
Not if you've read
Eye to Eye: Facing the Consequences of Dividing Israel
8 And the LORD spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying:
9 'When Pharaoh shall speak unto you, saying: Show a wonder for you; then thou shalt say unto Aaron: Take thy rod, and cast it down before Pharaoh, that it become a serpent.'
10 And Moses and Aaron went in unto Pharaoh, and they did so, as the LORD had commanded; and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it became a serpent.
11 Then Pharaoh also called for the wise men and the sorcerers; and they also, the magicians of Egypt, did in like manner with their secret arts.
12 For they cast down every man his rod, and they became serpents; but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods.
13 And Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had spoken. {S}
