Are you scared about the end of the world?

I've heard of this so many times, since I was younger.. It used to scare me back then... I think I'm still scared up to now, but not as much as I used to.. I don't want to think that it's about the end of the world, and I don't want to believe it either. But if it's God's will, I know He knows what is right for all of us, and even I'm scared, if it's time, then if it's time.. I don't know what it will be if it's the end of the world, but I always hear it's not really good if it's going to happen.. Hopefully we could appreciate more of the good things and do more good things before it happens..

it scared me as a child also but i have grown to realize there are some things we have no control over and speculating about things is, to me, a waste of time and energy best used elsewhere. if the world will end i can only hope it is quick and no one suffers or agonizes over it.

no, im not scared of the end of the world. are you talking about the 2012 theory? doesnt matter actually. think about it, what is there to worry over? IF it really is the end of the world, there isnt a damn thing any of us can do about right? so dont borrow trouble and stress where you dont have the slightest influence to change it. if we all croak and there is a god of whatever creed..then yea! all loved ones shall meet up again..or if there really is nothing after and we just blip into nothing..then you'll never know the difference!! lol! just live your life.

I believe God is going to come when he comes. I don't know when he will come and all I can see is we need to be ready. If we are ready then we have nothing to fear.

Andromeda is supposed to crash into Milky Way in 25 billion years. The sun is supposed to expand into a red giant and incinerate the Earth. The Moon's orbit is decaying and will crash into the Earth. A more immediate threat is a comet or an asteroid crashing into the earth, extinguishing life as we know it. Or global warming and overpopulation will cause a food shortage and mass starvation. All of these scenarios are predictable for our future or lack of future. Sooner or later the earth will disappear and if there are any humans left by the time which is doubtful they will also disappear. Nothing lasts forever not even us.

I am not scared about the end of the world at all. I think it's just some religious hooey that fundies have cooked up to scare the rest of us, and I'm not going to fall for their crap. I am not sure what spiritual power lives where, but I do believe that anything is possible, spiritually. However, I do not believe it possible for humans to predict things like the end of the world.

It is not a nice thing to think about, that is for sure. They say we have until 2012. Well, they have said things before, we will see. Until then, we will have to make the best of it. Have a nice evening.

Hi smooch, I never worried about the end of the world. I believe I would not face it and I hope so. I would not happen 40 years from now. And I believe so. All the prediction and estimation by some crazy people are the funnies thing I ever heard especially just because the numbers (most them believe it would be on 12.12.2012). They predict it before that it would be happening on 1.1.2000 but we are still here after 9 years from that date. We should do the good things now not because the end of the world gonna happen but because it is what we suppose to do. We should always try to do a good thing because it is the right thing to do. If you believe in God and heaven and hell, you should do it no matter what. Happy mylotting and have a nice day.

Everyone is scared when its end of the world but it will happen many millions of years from now so we should live with whatever we have. If it happens, then nothing we can do about it. Just enjoy ourselves and live life to the fullest.

I never really thought about it. But since you mentioned it, I don't feel scared. I guess I feel this way because when I was younger and I heard that when it turned to the year 2000 it was the end of the world, that we were going to blow up or a huge meteor was going to hit the earth. I honestly don't think it's going to happen. People just like to mess with our minds and others just like to gossip and pass information along.

I much more afraid of not doing the good things in this world then I will die suddenly rather that the end of the world. Because you will never know when you will die and the Almighty God will judge on what I have done, I'm more afraid that I did not do the things that I supposed to do that will give me salvation.
