Default End of the World - Whats your opinion - 02-19-2008, 02:49 AM

This is a topic the very rich and atheists try to avoid.We all have to gapple with the thoughts once in a while,we hear of global warming alarms,we hear of drifting giant comets...and wonder how safe our planet is?

Now what is your personal opinion about how our world will end?

Default man - 02-19-2008, 03:24 AM

For me i think man will play a major role,directly or indirectly.

Directly through destruction of his own environment,nuclear wars etc

Indirectly by commiting a spiritual sacriledge,probably rejecting to obey the message of Jesus Christ and forming alliances with devil driven ideaologies.
 


If A equals success, then the formula is A = X + Y+Z. X is work. Y is play. Z is keep your mouth shut.

The world will not end as we know it. Species will disappear while others will re-appear and life will go on. If a part of the human race disappears with it, tough luck. But if Rayfisher and bible reader expect something akin to what is described in science fiction books about an armaggedon, then please continue living in fantasy.

The Lord will appear on the clouds with hundreds of thousands of his Angels and saints.

As for the rebelious ones,the elements of the erath shall burn them with fervent heat.

Rev 21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away;

Life forms will survive environmental change. In fact, some life forms will thrive under changed circumstances that may cause man to suffer.

Many life forms can survive severe nuclear radiation.

The main threats to life per se will be any interruption to light (sun), oxygen/carbon dioxide and water. Once we have these three, then the only danger would be a physical destruction of planet earth, which is very difficult given its massive size.

Civilization will be challenged in 50 years time when oil supplies dwindle seriously.

If you're impatient, then here are Ten Ways to Destroy Mother Earth.

The new earth and heaven are not a new set but the same old ones renewed.After the fervent heating of elements the face of the earth will be renewed.All the pollutants will be incinerated,the set of reaction and action will renew the earth from the core to the stratosphere making it a whole new world.

Please which branch of science is your thesis based on?Scientists are busy running up and down stoping japanese from harvesting whales,restricting masaais from killing lions,instigating laws to protect koala bear,kangaroos and th white rhyno.

And from my understanding i know Nuclear bomb can wipe out an entire life system on the surface of the earth.May be only the roaches can survive.
