There's a miniscule chance that I might know someone who will live to see the end of the world and that frightens me.

I don't waste any energy worrying about stuff that is completely beyond my control. I have enough stuff to deal with this week.

The only people having anything to sweat are those who advertise that there is no God.

LOL!

Probabilty wise, from an astronomical viewpoint, those are damned good odds we are toast.

Oh, so you think Jesus is on that thing? I doubt it, I've computed Jesus's approximate position, having left the Earth at the speed of light on the Spring Equinox of 36 A.D., given that Jeresuleum was facing the sun at the time, using tensor calculus ,it is pretty obvious that He has not quite reached Heaven yet, in fact, even at the speed of light, The Savior is not even out of the Milky Way. The Redeeemer simply has not had time to get to Heaven, receive His Heavenly Father's wishes from Himself, that he bind up Satan , and then return to ride an asteriod to our destruction, where The Loving God will throw everyone who has pissed Him off into a Lake of Fire, probably created in the impact crater. But to be on the safe side, we should check to see if the asteriod has a sword for a tongue, brass feet, and seven horns. Please let us know the results of your investigation.

The rest of you can pray, but by my calculations, it will take about 20,000 years for your prayer to reach Heaven, so you've had it.
