the idea of man returning to his primal origins has always been compelling."

Luckily, the amazing cadre of mash-up artists at Draw2D2 are up to the challenge. Here are some of the amazing Pixar/Tars Tarkas mash-up images that appeared over at Draw2D2

"100,000 years before the time of John Carter! Barsoom is a dying world: its once mighty oceans are receding and its atmosphere grows more tenuous by the day. The Orovars, who have dominated for a million years, are on the verge of extinction at the hands of the Green Hordes and the emerging Red Martians. Two Orovars - a Scientist and a General -- race against time to save their people before Mars plunges into barbarism!"

COUNT THE DAYS
A Family Radio radio billboard proclaiming that May 21, 2011, is Judgment Day Or you can stick with the Mayan end of the world, slated for 2012. This countdown calculator will tell you how many days you have left on Earth according to their deadline. Enjoy them while you can! Mayan Countdown Clock |
Richard Dawkins and others roundly debunk the May 21 end date,
which was calculated by Family Radio evangelist Harold Camping.
Dawkins writes: Science knows approximately how, and when, our Earth will end. In about five billion years the sun will run out of hydrogen, which will upset its self-regulating equilibrium; in its death-throes it will swell, and this planet will vaporise.... In the nearer future, it is pretty likely that human life will become extinct — the fate of almost all species that have ever lived. Washington Post reporter Elizabeth Tenety points out that Camping previously (and wrongly) predicted the rapture would occur “between September 15 and 27, 1994.” Even if Camping is right, Fuller Theological Seminar President Richard Mouw clarifies that May 21 is Rapture Day — the day Christians, dead and alive will meet Jesus in the sky. According to Camping, the world won’t end until Oct. 21, 2011 |
