"Christ has died, Christ has risen, Christ will come again."
In the dawn of time, nothing existed yet......or so we thought.
What if the universe is no more than one of many spherical dimensions? If you don't already know, The Universe is a sperichal dimension that starts off as a small ball. Think of an egg cell in the woman's womb. It starts off as a single cell. Then it multiplies and expands when fertilized with sperm.
Now think of The Universe as that egg cell, except as a sphere. It expands and expands wider and wider in radius. Untill it reaches it's climax. Then it retracts and goes through the process again.
This is fact. The oldest rocks found deep within the earth are only about 300 billion years old. Our Universe is quite young. Then again.......how long does a Universe last before it retracts again? And what is outside of the Universe.....you would think nothing. Nothing at all. No matter, nothing. Can you prove that though? No. Never. Unless we truely do have an afterlife with God.
So, where is Heaven and Hell or Purgatory? We very well know that Heaven is not in the clouds, Hell is not in the Earth, and Purgatory is not in the somewhat fictional "Limbo Land" or land of no conciousness.
Perhaps, these places are outside of our Universe. Outside of the sphere. Maybe there are many more Universe' out there. For now we cannot prove that.

It's the year 2006. We all know that Nostradamus, a famed prophet for his psychical visions of the future(Predictor of 9/11, WWII, Nuclear War of 2006, and many things), saw the beginning of the Apocalypse in the New Millenium. Born in 1506 and died in 1566, Nostradamus practiced witchcraft and was most certainly damned to Hell according to God's teachings. He seemed to know anyways.
Recently, Italian archeologists discovered ancient scriptures from Nostradamus. He buried them all scrambled untill mankind had the technology to find them and decode them. We've decoded his scriptures and found his predictions. Interested in depth of his predictions? Visit http://www.nostradamusonline.com/ for a copy of The Nostradamus Code.
Nostradamus predicted something happening on June 6th 2006. June is the sixth month of the year. So on the calender it will say: 6/06/06. The sign of the Beast. The sign of the devil and all that is evil. Taking away the zero's since they represent nothing. You get 666. What will happen on this day? We will very soon find out. Very soon. If we are to get nuked by Korea or the middle east, we will trigger World War III. A Nuclear War. This will be thee worst thing ever to happen in mankind. Ever.

During the 1980s, one of the major concerns of the effects of a potential nuclear war was the possibility of it causing a 'nuclear winter' - a catastrophic change in climate caused by the ejection of massive amounts of dust and smoke into the atmosphere during the course of such a war. Yet, since the end of the Cold War in 1989, discussion of the potential for major climatic changes due to a nuclear conflict has virtually ceased - despite the fact the large arsenals of nuclear weapons still remain on alert status, and hence such a conflict could still happen by accident. And of course, recent tensions, in particular between India and Pakistan, could still lead to an intentional nuclear war.
The devastation of a nuclear winter
Obviously, when a nuclear bomb hits a target, it causes a massive amount of devastation, with the heat, blast and radiation killing tens or hundreds of thousands of people instantly and causing huge damage to infrastructure. But in addition to this, a nuclear explosion throws up massive amounts of dust and smoke. For example, a large nuclear bomb bursting at ground level would throw up about a million tonnes of dust.
As a consequence of a nuclear war, then, the dust and the smoke produced would block out a large fraction of the sunlight and the sun's heat from the earth's surface, so it would quickly become be dark and cold - temperatures would drop by something in the region of 10-20ºC - many places would feel like they were in an arctic winter. It would take months for the sunlight to get back to near normal. The drop in light and temperature would quickly kill crops and other plant and animal life while humans, already suffering from the direct effects of the war, would be vulnerable to malnutrition and disease on a massive scale.
In the case of an (e.g.) accidental nuclear exchange between the USA and Russia, the main effects would be felt in the northern hemisphere, as the dust and smoke would quickly circulate across this area. But even in this case, it would soon affect the tropics - where crops and other plant/ animal life are especially sensitive to cold. Hence, even in these areas there would be major problems.
While the temperature at the surface would be low, the temperature of the upper part of the troposphere (5-11 km) would rise because of sunlight absorbed by the smoke, so there would be a huge temperature inversion. That would keep many other pollutants produced by widespread fires (e.g. dioxins, PCBs, sulphurous gases) down at the levels people breathe, making a very dense and highly toxic smog.
One further environmental problem would be widespread destruction of the ozone layer caused by high levels of nitrogen oxides. The average loss of ozone could be as much as 70% - much higher than that currently cause by CFCs. So after several months when the smoke cleared and the sun began to shine again, there would be a large increase of UV radiation reaching the earth's surface. This would be bad for humans (e.g. eye and skin damage), but the major effect would be for other living things, notably sensitive plankton, which are at the bottom layer of the whole marine food chain. Animals would also suffer - blindness would be common - and blind animals would quickly starve.
Altogether, nuclear winter would be an ecological disaster of a similar magnitude to the major extinctions of the past, such as that at the end of the Cretaceous period 65 million years ago when 75% of all species died out, including the dinosaurs. An added factor after a nuclear war would be radioactive contamination giving worldwide background radiation doses many times larger than has ever happened during the 3 billion years of evolution.
Nostradamus isn't the only one who predicted Catastropic events. The ancient Mayans did as well.
The Mayans were extroadinary astronamors. Their calender was based off the positioning of the stars and planets. Their calender, comes to an abrupt end on December 21, 2012. It literally stops. Ends.
They predict the world will end on that day.
On December 21, 2012 at exactly 11:11 a.m. GMT The sun will go off it's ordinary course towards the west and head northeast. Then it will stop in it's place and create an eclipse that reveals the crossline between the Galactic Galaxy, and the Milkyway Galaxy. We will all be injected by cosmic rays and peace will become dominant. I hope this is how it happens.
Then there's the Bible. The ancient scriptures of Christ, Abraham, and Isaac. As well as many more prophets that describe the same catastrophic events Nostradamus describes. The Bible predicts the antichrist and the beast coming. As well as Christ's return.
"Christ has died, Christ has risen, Christ will come again."
"When the end of the world truely comes. I will sigh in relief. For there will be so much to look foward to."
If no one here sees our existence as a prophecy then you will probably ignore this thread. I see our existence as a prophecy to end evil. So when the apocalypse comes mankind will choose their side and end this chaos. I'm sure there's more out there, than what we can imagine.
Let us only hope we who are faithful to the Lord are saved.
