“Then the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand toward the sky so that darkness will spread over Egypt—darkness that can be felt." So Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and total darkness covered all Egypt for three days. No one could see anyone else or leave his place for three days. ”
— Exodus 10:21–23
This plague was an attack aimed directly at Pharaoh's god Ra, the Egyptian sun god. By introducing the plague of darkness, Moses attempted to demonstrate the clear power of Yahweh; and the folly of worshipping the Egyptian gods.
Egyptian Plague- Three Days of Complete Darkness
"The sun, the most worshipped God in Egypt other than Pharaoh himself, gave no light. The Lord showed that he had control over the sun as a witness that the God of Israel had ultimate power over life and death. The psychological and religious impact would have had a profound influence on the Egyptians at this point. Darkness was a representation of death, judgment and hopelessness. Darkness was a complete absence of light."

10:21 And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward Google, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.

Now obviously this is a few days early, but if i'm not mistaken the bible references 3 days of darkness before the apocalypse,
which a lot of people think is this friday(12/21/12).
While like I said it's a few days early, I find it very interesting that the sky has been completely clouded/overcast since about thursday or friday.
In essence I haven't seen the sun since thursday or friday.
Today is monday (12/17/12).
Now I live on the east coast of the Unite States, Philadelphia to be specific. Who else has had overcast weather the last 3 or 4 days?
This isn't really anything huge but I mean, it kind of makes you wonder if things are starting to happen just as they said it would.
I guess the next few days we'll just have to wait an see.
I don't know about the rest of you but while im skeptical, and don't really think anything is gonna happen, the closer we get to the date, the more antsy I become. There will always be the little "what if" in the back of my head when it comes to this.

I have heard these quotes many times regarding the Bible, especially the left out parts.
The Catholic Church especially loves the 3 days of darkness story...and talk about it often.
You could be the one who is mistaken.

close to 5" so far today, may get a few more by morning...
the bible makes reference to the 3 days of darkness,
but as far as it happening... well, slim chance...
not based on religion, but the sun passing through
the thickest part of the galaxy.
But im not counting on it...
it is interesting to read on though i give ya that.
