How will the world end?

Are we going to live until the planet dies, whereby we explore outer space (and hopefully find a planet we can actually live on)? Is the planet going to punish us for being irresponsible jerks? Will the machines take over?

I am going to quote someone else for this one.

It happened that a fire broke out backstage in a theater. The clown came out to inform the public. They thought it was a just a jest and applauded. He repeated his warning, they shouted even louder. So I think that world will come to an end amid general applause from all the wits, who believe that it was a joke.
- From the book Either/OR by our friend Kierkegaard.

Not only do we have to contend with Mother Nature we also have to contend with ourselves. The odds are stacked against us. I have my doubts that we'll make to the end of the Earth's lifespan. Moving may be impossible for all we know. There are no guarantees that finding another home is even possible. Much less achieving the technology needed for such an endeavor. Things like war could simply end the progression of technology. It already greatly holds us back.

I don't think humanity's time on earth is short. If our past history is any indication, we're survivors.

How will this planet end? If nothing happens for the next 5 billion years, the sun will expand to engulf the first three planets before she croaks. Otherwise, I really can't say as such things delve into the Mystery.

See Revelation ; The Bible.

That prophecy is about the end of evil, not the end of the world. And it was supposed to happen years ago, during the early Christian church.

Hopefully.

Is the planet going to punish us for being irresponsible jerks?
Possibly.

Will the machines take over?
I doubt it.

I can't help myself, this has been stuck in my head since I saw the thread:

This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper

That's the first thing that came to my mind when I saw the thread.

either we run out of recources and kill eachother over the last recources
or we will die by a gaint meteorite (were overdue)
or we will die by a virus (mutated hiv or somthing)

You seem to speak that as an absolute truth. Not everyone agrees with you here.

Sorry if I offended you. I merely stated how I read Revelations, and speaking from the viewpoint of the time period, which was during a time of great persecution. I'm not surprised at all that during that time period all kinds of apocalyptic writings were introduced, one of them John's, among others.

It's okay to disagree with me, and I again apologize if I offended you; that wasn't my intent.

i recently red prophecies of an Bulgarian lady. she had a great story for future. very interesting.

3797 - By this time on Earth killed all life, but mankind will be able to lay the foundations for a new life in another stellar system.

3803 - A new planet is populated by little. Fewer contacts between people. Climate new planet affects the organisms of people - they mutate.

3805 - The war between humans for resources. More than half of people dying out.

3815 - The war is over.

3854 - The development of civilization virtually stops. People live flocks as beasts.

3871 - New prophet tells people about moral values, religion.

3874 - New prophet receives support from all segments of the population. Organized a new church.

3878 - along with the Church to re-train new people forgotten sciences.

4302 - New cities are growing in the world. New Church encourages the development of new technology and science.

4302 - The development of science. Scientists discovered in the overall impact of all diseases in organism behavior.

4304 - Found a way to win any disease.

4308 - Due to mutation people at last beginning to use their brains more than 34%. Completely lost the notion of evil and hatred.

4509 - Getting to Know God. The man has finally been reached such a level of development that can communicate with God.

4599 - People achieve immortality.

4674 - The development of civilization has reached its peak. The number of people living on different planets is about 340 billion. Assimilation begins with aliens.

5076 - A boundary universe. With it, no one knows.

5078 - The decision to leave the boundaries of the universe. While about 40 percent of the population is against it.

5079 - End of the World.

There will be many a Silent Night.
For this is their Wholesome Right.
There will be Moments of Calm(in various regions)
Then will come... the Pregnant Bright Light.

P.S. Do not look directly at the light. It will cause blindness.

High Altitude Bursts-Electromagnetic Pulse(EMP):

High altitude air bursts which are over 100,000 feet will cause very little ground damage or nuclear radiation. They are however, extremely effective in destroying radios, televisions, communications, telephones, internet...and other computerized equipment. Virtually any electronic device which relies on solid state construction or semiconductor rectifiers, including, but not limited to automobiles with electronic ignition, will very likely be destroyed by such an air burst. This is because the detonation creates an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) in the frequency range of micro waves and radio waves which induces electrical current to flow through conductors such as wires, cars, and pipes. The surge of electrical current thus created, though lasting only a few thousandths of a second, spike sufficiently high enough to "fry" the fragile circuitry components of such devices. This EMP electrical spike is so short in duration, and detonated so high that it does not effect individuals, in any other way. Unless, you just happened to be looking up in the sky, at that moment and saw a momentary "flash of light" you would have no idea that the "explosion" had occured. If you should see such a burst, never look directly at it because it can cause blindness, even from distances of up to 200 miles.

It has been estimated that electrical services and communications could be damaged or disrupted in an entire spectrum...or country by the High Altitude detonation of a single large nuclear weapon over the geographical center of the country. It is therefore likely that a "First Strike" against a specific country or region would probably begin with an unexpected "Surprise" high altitude detonation to create an EMP surge sufficiant to cripple communications, destroy All computer defense systems, and completely eliminate all radar tracking facilites. This would leave the entire Country, spectrum or region open to attack with no ability to defend itself...or shall we say...retaliate.

As an individual, should you ever experience a power failure, immediatly check your telephone, and battery powered radio. If they do not work try your car. If it does not work and other cars on the road have "Mysteriously" stopped...you will know that a high altitude nuclear device has been detonated and the resulting EMP has destroyed the communications system.

Low Altitude Bursts:
Low altitude bursts (2000-10,000 feet) are generally used to destroy "Soft" targets which are above ground. These type of bursts generally produce severe damage from heat, blast and initial radiation levels...but do not produce significant levels of radioactive fallout. Low altitude bursts are generally localized in their destructive ability...but they are totally destructive to that specific area. Their effects are as follows:

Blast:
The detonation of a nuclear weapon produces a powerful shockwave which travels at a high rate of speed in all directions from the "Blast Zone." This wave has two destructive components. The extremely rapid expansion that occurs in the blast causes compression of atmospheric air for many miles around and is called overpressure, measured in pounds per square inch (PSI). One PSI overpressure may be thought of as being one pound per square inch above normal atmospheric pressure for your area or altitude.

Overpressure exerts force on surfaces and will crush hollow objects such as cars and buildings. An overpressure of just 0.5 PSI, which can break windows and cause other damage in residential areas, could occur at a distance of twenty miles from a one megaton blast. An overpressure of 4.5 PSi is enough to flatten the average single family dwelling. This amount of pressure can occur at a distance of approxamately five miles from a one-megaton, or ten miles from a ten-megaton blast.

The second componant of a nuclear shock wave is called dynamic pressure and is characterized by a high wind which may reach speeds of one-hundred miles per hour at a distance of six miles from an air burst one-megaton blast, which is sufficient to knock over a person standing up.
After the shock wave passes the pressure falls until an underpressure, like a vacuum, develops and a reverse wind blows back toward the explosion. This reverse wind and vacuum, will also cause damage, but is not as severe nor as destructive as the initial shock wave.

Heat:
At the time of detonation the intense flash of rapidly expanding fireball, can start fires miles away. The extreme heat of the detonation will literally vaporize everything nearby.

I don't buy any doomsday crap.

The world may end as it began,or begin again as it had previously ended before it began in the form we know it.........all is in the current so sieze the moment.

Tis'cool,just differnet types of energy or different resonation.

Which came first,the gods or their archetypal powers?
 
By the time you realize that you are under attack, you will have a tough time retrieving food, water, medicines, seasonal clothing, educational supplies etc. I have always been taught to prepare for the worst, and hope for the best. I expect both. This world has put the people in the dangerous position of being completely dependent upon moving shipments of supplies. Many have the arrogant idea, that someone else will always be there to take care of their basic needs, in one way or another. This is not only foolish, but very selfish.

Events can happen so quickly, that you will not have time to prepare your house hold. If you are contributing money and time to any church, take all of that time and money and apply it to your justified houshold. If you are gambling in stock, bond and commodities markets...stop. Place that funding where it should be, with your family whom you are responsible.

There are those individuals who through no fault of their own are unable to prepare for these events. Plan and prepare for them as well. This is not a doomsday scenario, for we are on the Eve of Judgment, which is called The Sabbath.

Better not happen before St Indra's day on 30th November,my youngest is being christened on that day,paid in advance........I'd hate to waste all the sausage rolls.

:/

gtg buddy,keep breathing.:)
