My sense of humor can't take it anymore. Hearing the channel constantly spew out crap regarding vague prophecies about fire, destruction and starvation and then having some history guy go "That stuff is happening right now, Nostradamus predicted it," just doesn't make me laugh anymore. This is no longer just an isolated burst of idiotic conspiracy theory, its become much, much more terrible.

Yeah, I like to laugh at it but at the end of the day it's incredibly disturbing the amount of people who not only believe in the end of the world, but the fact that so many people desperately want it to happen.
That for me is more terrifying than anything the Bible or Nostradamus could diss out.
I think History Channel has gone to crap way before this whole Nostradamus trend though, for a while it was nothing but Hitler and UFOs, and at least Hitler actually has something to do with history.
At this point the History Channel is about on the equal educational level of say, Nickelodeon.
No wait, I take that back. I've learned more about marine biology from watching episodes of Spongebob Squarepants than I have learned about History from anything currently on that self parody of a network.
