Maybe the third part of the "secret of Fatima" can tell us something.

Nothing or nobody can tell you bout the end of the world. Plus if we go around worried about when the world is going to end that would be a waste of our time. For all we know we got 5minutes left untill it ends. So it's a dumb thing to think about.

does anyone know about the mayan prophecy which tells us about the end of the world in 2012?i truly believe that human beings deserve to die because all types of human stupidity should be stopped as soon as possible.let's go,everyone!

Hi I'm new here. I found this interesting site coz' I was a bit hooked with the 'Ted the caver' story.



Looks like not a lot of people here knows that Christ has announced the last call in late 1930's through a nun (recently canonized), for those who can believe. Yes the last call thing was quite explicit if you read through the material carefully.

Watched on news at 10 lastnight the next iceage will be in 16,000 years and will last for about 80,000 years, so were ok for a bit.

My best friend always asks me, "What are you going to do if there's a nucelar attack? Or pole shift? Or a metor hits?" etc. etc.
My first response is always, "Um, well, I'll probably die." (especially if it happens right on my front door)
Now I don't believe personally, in the second coming of Christ, or the biblical Armeggedon. I'm just not Christian. For those out there who do believe in it, stick to your guns. My religious beliefs are different, but I would not have someone tell me they are wrong, and I will not do it for others.
Anywho, I'd have to agree with others on this post, I think mankind may die out, (as well as many of the current animal species), but this world will not end, for a long time. Much like the time of the dinosaurs.
I'm not afraid of death, anymore. I just look at it as another adventure. (not that I want to die anytime soon, I like it here just fine.)
And as for humans getting cut down, well...forests get purged by mother nature in the form of fires, so the dead brush can be cleared, and the forest strted anew. (sometimes humans "help" in that department as well.)
I don't dislike humanity as a whole, I just think that maybe the overpopulation, ruining the atmosphere, digging out all of the resorces, the tearing down of beautiful lands to put up ugly buildings, well....Mother Nature might be little cross with us. A maybe its time for a lightning strike in the forest...

Why do we try to see the future?

I bealive that the end of the world is coming soon i bealive that with all the pollution and mess we made with the world it will become unlivable and also with the famine in africa and other 3rd world countries god is probably dissapointed so ya i would prepare for the end of the world (talk about alot prayong i will have to do)

Moe you'll be OK dude, your islands were forged by the destructive force of nature. A matter of fact they are still being forged. I'm of the notion that if you live and work in the kitchen then why fear the heat?

i think that every generation always finds reasons to think its the end of the world, lets hope like the rest we r wrong!

This pole shift thing makes me laugh! Do u want to know why? Cuz Scientists and prophets said they new the exact date the pole shift was to happen May 5, 2000 it didnt happen then? Thats so funny!!! Now thier saying its going to happen in 2012!

One day, the whole world will come to a consensus on when the world will end. And then it won't end. Everybody will be comfortable, thinking that it will never end. And then...the next day...the world will end.

trublvr...

You know what you said actually makes perfect sense? I'll just bet that something like that would happen...

I believe there will be an end of the world and of the human race. I think humans will be the end of humans. We always seem to be inventing things that cause damage to us. Drugs, cigarettes, weapons, etc. Has anyone heard of the asteroid QQ47? I'm not saying I believe it will hit us, but I'm not saying it won't because I don't know. Asteroid QQ47

maybe if the world does end it will be for the better...or at least the human race. all we do as a race is destroy and rape this planet of the beautiful things it has...who knows man.

New here. . . saying hi for one. . . .

Alright, since I just spent most of my day researching how different cultures view the end of the world, I thought this would be a good place for me to start posting.

My view? The world will end eventually. The human race may be long gone before that time, it may not. I don't think humans will bring about the end, though. Nature is much stronger than man. Unless we suddenly go all Death Star on our own planet and blow the sucker out of the universe, Nature will conquer. Nature will heal itself and move on.

I find it interesting, though, that people imagine the end of the world will be some huge, destructive force, or a divine cleansing of the world by a purifying something or other, or a day of enlightenment from some extraterrestrial sorce. . . . What if it just ended? What if you were asking your friend if they were going to finish their fries one minute and you all were simply gone the next? What if time, which began as a blip, as a human concept, simply stopped? I find that fascinating, even if it's not true. . . .

I predict that the world will end when it ENDS... Hey watch that movie b sh%t by Penn and teller it's hilarious.

Sorry mods if that was inappropriate, but thats the actual name of the movie it even aired on showtime.

TNO

Welcome aboard SerenitysRiver

I saw that Penn & Teller thing. . . . It's actually a series, not a movie. They have a bunch of topics that they cover. Some I agree with, others I don't. Hard-core believers in any topic they attack may become offended. . . . but it is funny as himinaflek! (Translation: really funny.)*

*sorry, I make up my own words all the time. . . . .

im sure the end of the world will come sometime soon, but hopefully not while im on it.. i think if you believe in nostradamus he said liek 3456 or something like that... but i dont think we have to worry about it right now.

Listen to this lecture:
"The End of the Kali Yuga (Dark Age)"
http://www.gnosis-usa.com/audiolectures.html

Think of how many prophecies Nostradamus has written. And then think of how many did not come true. Theres no way one should believe the earth will end in 2012, or 3456 simply because of what is written.

I HAVE A BETTER IDEA

Just think,

You know why we'r worried that world will end ?

because each and everyone of us see our own selves being dead with it

and just seem to find no escape from the death.........
End of the world will come later YOU WILL definitely DIE FIRST,
(lets say within the next 100 years ur definitely dead)
you wont give a f** about humanity wether it prospers or not, rich or poor, once ur lying dead in ur grave

lets change the topic from the

"End of World"

to something like

"Will i die tommorow?" ............. let me give you some startups

(yea will i die tommorow while crossing the road ?)
(will i die tommorow by slipping down suddenly on the subway track and running over by the train?)
(will i die tommorow by passing near a construction building and being hit by a birck in the head?)
(will i die tommorow by being run over by a drunk driver in a car?)
(will i die tommorow by an aeroplane crashing on my head? )

Apocolypse? Anyone believe in that? Honestly, I dont. I have many theories based on "The End of the World"
1. The sun will eventually orbit enough times that the sun will enter the Earth's orbit and eventually will collide - before that - would melt the earth.
2. The sun will explode (like all other normal stars do) and food will die out, etc. - (dinosaur extinction theory - human extinction theory)
3. The crust of the Earth will eventually disolve and deteriate from the increasing lava beneath the crust each year.
4. The moon could be taken away from the Earth (asteroid hitting it, etc.) and mass tidal waves could occurr.
5. A HUGE asteroid could enter the Earths path and orbit and eventually land on Earth killing everything in its path eventually destroying Earth.
6. (Doubtfully) Aliens come to our planet, accept us as their enemies or use us as slaves and eventually kill us to give the minerals, land, or water they want.
Those are very few of my theories. Might sound a little ridiculous.

well i heard that the Mayans predicted the End of the World to be 2012! well not so much the end of it like we go *BOOM* but as in a way that a new period will begin and maybe we forget the "old ways"?

Nostradamus said that the end of the World is in i think 3055 or something like that.... but i dont think we have to worry, but then again, with all the activity going on around here... you never really know?

True, anyways we don't have to worry about it, we'll be long gone.

If what you mean by the end of the world as the end of the human era, then it is possible to happen sometime in the future. It is most likely for the end of the human era to be caused by humans themselves, but I do beleive that anything is possible. But I doubt the Earth itself will be destroyed for another 6 billion years (when the sun explodes), but again, anything can happen.

well people have been saying for like hundereds of years "the end is near!!!"......and its been along time so we ar like tons closer to the "end" then those who first said "The end is near!!!!!!!"

so yes its coming and with all the junk going on in the world its kinda hard to not think just a little that it is.....

Very Possible.As said in the Geeta [U][/U].Whenever things start growing minier & greedier an Apocalypse takes place.

What is Geeta? A book? Fill me in...

Que Sera, Sera (whatever will be, will be)

I say we get a poll on who believes whats going to happen...anyone up for it?

i truly believe the human race is going to run its self out ...by blowing ourselves up....or just killing in general..or diseases of one kind or another.....

each generation of child is more and more agressive than the last..more behaviour problems....more out of control youths etc...

its all gonna end in brain dead people who just fight..
mother nature will survive us and the darn suicidal mess mankind have done.....
we were given the gift of the Earth to live upon....and that gift may well see us out

Put it down on my poll...

The earth is not doomed only the human race untill the next born life form with the power to use the wisdom of the brain is created from the ashes. Th e past will once again be lost and a new era shall reign, new creatures will rule and new animals and vegetation will flourish through the earth... The earth will have its days for us, the plates have been exposed to the ocean and pressure is building. More natural disasters have been occuring in the last few years exactly as shown in many prophecies.

i kinda like the theory that after an amount of time, humans end up dying out ( natural disaster, war, etc...) and eventually repopulates.

or something like that. anways, this would explain stonehedge and the pyramids and stuff, would be a could guess of our future apocolypse...

That which has not begining, can have no end.

The sun will become a super sun and engulf the whole solar system.

The Sun evolves very slowly over this time as it consumes Hydrogen in its core:
grows slightly larger
gets slightly brighter
temperature gets slightly hotter then slightly cooler.
Otherwise, very little else happens, so far as the Sun is concerned. For the planets, however, the change in total solar radiation has an impact. For one particular planet, the impact is quite dramatic.

Sun will be 10% brighter than today.
Extra solar energy causes a Moist Greenhouse Effect.
The Earth's atmosphere will dry out as water vapor is lost to space. Such a situation will probably spell the end of large surface life on Earth. Some types of marine life and simpler life forms will likely survive in the oceans and localized pools of water.

Sun will be 40% brighter than today.
Extra solar energy results in a Runaway Greenhouse Effect
The oceans will evaporate into space, and conditions on the Earth will be like those on Venus today. Such conditions will probably mean the end of all forms of terrestrial life.

The sun's core runs out of Hydrogen
The inert Helium ash that has built up steadily in the core over the last 11 Gyr becomes unstable and starts to collapse under its own weight. This causes the core to heat up and get denser.
The last remaining regions of Hydrogen fusion get moved out into a thin shell surrounding the collapsing Helium core.

Strong stellar wind begins to kick in, over the next few Myr the Sun will shed some 28% of its total mass by losing the outer parts of its envelope to the wind.

Lower mass of the Sun results in less central gravity in the Solar System, and the planets slowly move outwards in their orbit in response:

This growth of the Sun (with accompanying mass loss from a strong stellar wind) continues as the Sun evolves into a Red Giant Star:"

Etc, etc.

Well like I said before, there could be so many events happening before what we expect, that it may not happen. But if some of these events that are expected to happen don't happen, those things that we predicted couldn't happen since the world wouldn't be there could happen...

With the way the human race has voraciously devoured resources and overcrowded the planet at this point, there is no doubt in my mind that we will be the death of ourselves.

For one, we put our huge populaces into unsustainable cities and then ensure that the surrounding areas are unsuitable for agriculture.

Then we use agricultural methods that strip the land of recognizable nutrients and pollute the adjacent waterways. If that weren't enough, the forests that serve as a filter for rainwater flowing into waterways are clearcut, further damaging the water supplies.

Going back to point one, with all the overcrowding, their is a rise in aggressive tendencies. People after all do crave their space, and without it become angry and more violent.

So, when food becomes scarce, and all the available water is tainted by the products of our own idiocy, we will only have ourselves to blame for our collective fate.

When we should have been building a way of life livable for our future generations, we were too stuck on "ensuring" our own greedy, self serving lifestyles to give it much thought.

Next time you see someone driving an SUV, or chowing down on their super sized biggie meal, take a real good look at how the future is being wasted.

Who needs an asteroid or an earthquake?

There is more wood today in American forests than there was in 1953. The cubic foot increase of wood growing in these forests over the last 60 years has been 26% The United States is planting around 2.4 millions acres of new trees each year. The growing of trees has also exceeded the harvesting of trees. There are more trees than there were in the past, so saying "If that weren't enough, the forests that serve as a filter for rainwater flowing into waterways are clearcut, further damaging the water supplies." is not true.


I don't believe we are becoming more agressive.


I'd say we'll need a natural disaster before we destroy the earth. We find solutions to our problems, and we better our understanding about our environment. You speak as if we will stand idly by while our earth is destroyed. We are more aware of our effects on the earth, and we are more than able to counter these effects by managing new ideas to better our chances of a cleaner earth.

Human race will end, but it is not the end of the Earth, when the sun burns out life on Earth will end.( as we see it )
Even if we blow the Earth up somethings survives, even if we see it like the end.
Maybe even some organisms survives and ends up on a different planet, and life starts all over again.

A bit counfusing, right out of my disordered mind

why does everyone swear we are going to kill our selves out and that we are draining the planet of its resources, the only reason they're called resources is becuase we as humans have found a way to use them for our benefit, once we develop hydrogen power hydrogen will be classified as a resource as well and so will any other means of fuel

why is every 1 fighting about the end of the world btw i found some stuff about the mayan calender its not a real calender so chill out we got a other 6 or 7 years left to see what really happens

We discuss this in my anthro class today. To answer your questions about human ending human, no it wont happen for few thousand a year.

Nuke... no countries will try to nuke anybody UNLESS it is between Russia and USA because USA or Russia lone have much more nukes than all countries in world combine. So do the math, if any country try to use nuke on other they will get nuked way worse than the first victim by USA or Russia. Also it take MANY thousand nukes to actually end the human existance.

Maya calander... there are endless explaination for that. Hell it may have been mistranslated or something. That is like as looking on computer calander and it stop at 2060 and saying "OMG WORLD IS ENDING ON 2060!" or whatever.

ALso nature will repair itself.

About god... myself the god is nature... their only duty is to control the fire, water, air, and earth. So god actually say "Ok I will end this sinful world" is impossible.

So take a chill pill and enjoy your life and everything that this mother earth offer because nothing is as beautiful as wake up and walk outside and look at all leaves covered in dew and stones darken by moist, clean cool breeze against your skin and watch the beautiful sky color changing as the fire (Sun) come up to say "good morning time to start the day" :-)

I agreee with you. I don't think that Earth will cease to exisit, but the human race will - for the most part. God would not destroy us all. I believe that he will keep behind a few do-gooders and use them to re-populate the Earth. Just like with Noah's flood.
