The 5 Most Kick-Ass Apocalyptic Prophecies

#3.
The Return of Pahana

Source: The Hopi tribe of Native-Americans

What to watch for:
The arrival of white men in the lands of the Hopi Indians, taking land that isn't theirs and killing their enemies with hand-held thunder.

Wait a minute.

Uh oh.

What comes next:
It looks like we got to this prophecy a little late. The foretold snakes of iron, electronic spider webs and rivers of stone have already crossed the world and the seas are already polluted. Some people say the ninth and final sign, a "dwelling place in the stars falling to earth," happened in 1979 when Skylab crash-landed in Australia.

All that' left is the great wars between the White Man and his enemy in the deserts-

Goddammit.

Can you survive it?
The Hopi were polite enough to provide this part for us. According to prophecy, those who wish to avoid all the diseases and destruction should move to the lands of the Hopi. The bad news: "the lands of the Hopi" means Arizona. The good news: It' only temporary. Any day now, the Hopi are expecting the return of Pahana, or the "lost white brother" from the stars that left them thousands of years ago. When he descends, the survivors become wise and start making the world a better place.

Still, Arizona.

Rating:
What the Hopi' "great renewal" lacks in rivers of boiling blood and screaming demonic dragons, it makes up in deadly accuracy. Though it appears we're 98 percent of the way through this one, it' not really our fault: It was only revealed to the outside world in 1959. 6/10.

dont forget the lady and the dragon, the earth-beast and the kraken. all in revelations.

im not sure how good warm milk is to swim in.

pahana. two things. one is that we were "supposed to come" uh-huh. the second thing is that we should have more respect for the native americans now, and how they understood the casino business.

the aztecs where basically obsessed with their calander, and the creepiest thing is that they predicted cortez coming and fucking them up. so im not saying the 2012 thing is right, but, you know, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

ragnarock. only the vikings could make such a kick-ass prophecy.

p.s. Iron Maiden rules!!!

dear everyone who reads this. i have physically witnessed angelic forces in my life. i feel it is my duty to inform you, those of you who are not ignorant of the bible and its teachings, that about five years ago i had an encounter with an angel who asked me if i wanted to do God's work. when i asked what would that be, he asked me if i would tell the people, "the end of days is here,and Christ is coming." now i know in the bible there has been incidents where angels have communicated with prophets, it is hard for people to believe that this still goes on til the present, but i rest assure you i dont know or would consider myself anything but a messanger that was asked to carry out a message from God. Take Care and please take heed to this message considering it was given to me five years ago

dygital, wasn't that a futurama episode?

Davo: Many things in the Bible have been proven fact by archaelogy and historical references. So you might very well choose not to believe in those unconvinient moral and religious parts but to say that believing "anything" in it a "tard" thing, only exposes you as a narrowminded and painfully uninformed hater. You're in the right of not believing but not in the right of attacking the people who do.

Seriously, you can't argue with how badass Ragnarok is. I mean, in the Judeo-Christian mythos, people get zapped up to Heaven before anything unpleasant happens. But Ragnarok would be like living through a Rammstein album. AWESOME.

now what happened to the one where all the hot girls FLIP OUT and rape all the men of the world so many times that all our pricks fall off from constant abuse thus leading to the end of the world when first the men kill all th women for making them lose their dicks , and then two , kill themselvces , because they have no dicks?????????? ROFL crackin list

Trust a humor-based rating on a variety of Doomsday prophecies to turn into a "My religon can kick your religons ass" party.

they have medication for delusional thoughts, whitewinged1. Only complete tards believe anything in the bible (which explains most of western society)

Can any one of you non informed dipshits tell me how many infantry soldiers the Chinese army has??? Thats right dipshits Two hundred MILLION soldiers. Hey didn't the bible say that amount of soldiers will come from the ????That's right dipshits ...The EAST! Still think it's a load of shit and funny? I want to see your faces when it happens

Ragnarok should get a 10/10. We all know about TWO of the Norse gods, Odin and Thor; and we all agree they're badasses. Well imagine they got all their homies together and flew straight the fuck out of Compton at each other.

I doubt many Cracked readers have read "The Iliad", so instead think about the movie Troy, only about 20x more kickass than that.

Makes you wonder what a 10/10 Apocalypse will look like.

Gotta love the Norse. Their apocalypse seems like something I'd love to watch in a movie.

Do you hear of Chinese Earthquake? It is so serious now. I saw some pics and videos about it from
__ Bigblackconnect.com __, I am so sad to it. Should we help them?

I'm kind of sorry I missed the "armies of hungry jaguars" apocalypse.

Ragnarok wins for being such a damn cool word.
