Ever bother about the end of the world?

Hi kulaskulasito, If one had to choose, I'd be placing my bets with the religious freaks rather than with anything a bunch of "scientists" dream up. At least the mystics and others like them make reference to someone that should be in a position to know what He or She is talking about - especially if He or She created it all in the first place. Or otherwise they're talking from an eye-witness perspective, ie, just passing on what they've seen when looking into the future, so to speak (and we all have that particular faculty to a certain extent). BUT when it comes to "science", I'm personally very skeptical. These clowns know very little about anything, yet persist in making up whatever fairy story suits them and then teach it as fact! The truth is, we really have no clue what's inside the Earth, or why it's there or how it works. All we have is fanciful stories that are taught to us as though they are "facts", when in reality they're not. Same with the stars, including the Sun - we actually have little to no idea what the Sun and stars actually are, or how they do what they do, or why. Don't let all the haughty confidence of the university lecturers and astronomers fool you - they just make it up as they go along, and (yes, you guessed it) teach us their fairy stories as though they're fact! Strange as it may seem, the "scientists" are actually embroiled in their own religious experience - a religion of ego, you might say. If you challenge any of the nonsense that they teach, then they'll try to burn you at the stake! The best example of this is that great ongoing battle between he two opposing religions, Creationism and Evolutionism - neither side has any more substantive evidence than the other, yet if you choose not to accept either theology, you will be accused of the heresy of aligning yourself with the opposing camp. Many other dogmas of "science" fall into what I'd consider to be a religious conviction unsupported by the available evidence. In fact, the "scientists" continue to teach their beliefs as fact even when they've been demonstrated to be wrong - which goes to show how the judgment of the scientific community is biased by the collective egoes and vested interest of the status quo. I have no desire to get dragged into a bottomless debate with proponents of popular scientific theories, but note that no-one actually has any evidence or track record relating to the life history of stars or planets, how they are created and what their ultimate fate may be. All we have is conjecture which is treated as though it's fact - which it's not. As I suggested earlier, I'd be much more inclined to take the word of someone who was there at the time.

People are here for many many years to come, but, i think there will be a point when someone will do a mistake and pull a nuclear bomb that will drown us all men kind, or, our earth will staumble with other objects from space. I think some animal will stay here after us, the bridges and ston buildings will fall only after 500 years after us (I sow it on TY program). This world is part of something big, we are not alon. Did you look up to the sky and ask yourself where dose it ends? we are too small for the rest of the Galaxy, from my point of view there is a big thing out ther we dont know. I know scientist are researching all the time for answers, that may be we will know in our time, or not. Take car.

It's something I don't really give a lot of thought to I must admit. I suppose because there's nothing we can really do about it anyway, well unless it's a man-made end of course! Personally I think it will most likely end in billions of years time when the sun burns itself out, but of course there will be thousands of major events before that happens, some of which could have devastating effects such as comets, etc.

It doesn't bother me, really. On the scientific side, sure, the planet is going to eventually be either destroyed or uninhabitable or whatever. However, the theories on when this will happen all vary based on how it will happen, and a lot of them are millions of years out. I don't even like to worry about what will happen a couple of years from now, so why would I think millions of years out? The religious idea of the end of the world offers some more exact dates, some of which are coming up pretty soon. However, there have always been people who believed the world was going to end "any day now" so these are really just as unpredictable. There's no way to know if the Mayans were right or any random doomsday cult is right, or if my neighbor down the street who has visions is right. *shrugs* My religion has a huge focus on cycles, so I'm more used to thinking of this world as part of a continuing cycle. There isn't really any idea of "the end of the world" but if the world were to end in some way, we'd all be in the spirit world. And the Celtic cosmology is one spirit world layered on top of another, some of which are quite a bit like our world, so likely the world could end and I'd wind up living in a world very like it anyway. Not really something worth thinking about for me.

Although i was brought up religiously, i don't really bother to think about it. what is to be wil be, personally i have too much to worry about at the moment.

I would be happy if this world ends. There is so much sin around. people have lost their morales. I want God to rebuild everything and erase the sinners. One of the days predicted is 21st dec 2012 the doomsday, according to mayan calender. Lets see what happens.
