How do you think people would react if the Earth were hit by a comet?
I was just reading this article about a comet that flew close to us this week and was wondering what the collective thought might happen if a comet were to strike the planet.
This one wasn’t a giant that would have wiped out life on this planet or anything like that so how do you think people would react? Would it be like a tsunami or a major earthquake where there is a big outpouring of support for the victims and affected area followed by a quick return to life as usual for most?
Would people demand more preparation from astral dangers than is currently offered?
The article mentions that in 1908 80 million trees were flattened over 800 square miles.
What if this happened in the next 3–4 years?
Would all the end times people say that this was a sign of confirmed prophecy?
Ultimately, I’m not worried about it because there’s nothing I can do. But the reactions were something I wondered about.
