Oh, No, the Earth Is Doomed

Oh, No, Earth Is Doomed By Elton Camp The ignorant alarmists are having a field day A 150 foot-wide asteroid will hit us they say Next February, this big rock will come near But scientist assure us there’s naught to fear They have equipment & knowledge to know And are certain that the risk of a hit is zero But when the ignorant see that it really missed A bigger one will collide in 2040 they insist The accessibility of the Internet’s part to blame For it is open to publishing just any wild claim Scientific ignorance of readers also play a part To see lack of evidence, they aren’t enough smart Proof is required from one making such a claim Otherwise, it’s only a wild assertion, so lame With scientific method, most aren’t acquainted Therefore, their thinking is far too easily tainted The earth, many asteroid hits has survived So it won’t be destroyed even if one arrived Thus, this beautiful planet be destroyed never Ecclesiastes 1:4: “…the earth abideth forever.” Religious folks this clear verse puts on the spot They must decide if they believe the Bible or not
