I have been listening to a great podcast called the Skeptics Guide to the Universe. If you are not a science geek you will probgably find it rather boring however, I find it pretty interesting. During the show several news stories are discussed as are various regular topics.

FYI, this is not a serious article about why the LHC is not going to destroy the Earth. When I say this I do not mean that the author is not completely serious, I mean that it is not a scientific approach to the issue. Enjoy the crazy,  LHC Will not Destroy the Earch and Here is Why.

If and when the Large Hadron Collider fully powers up and smashes opposing particle streams, the world will not end. However, the end of the age and Christ’s return will happen, and God’s faithful Church will continue to preach the gospel of the Kingdom of God, to warn and witness right up to that time (Matthew 24:14).

Also the “birther” graphic is a blatant give away on, among other things, the scientific seriousness of the article.
