I recently heard that 40% of people do and I wanted to see if that is really the case.

I don't think the earth will explode and vanish or anything, but humanity may wipe itself out, especially if anyone decides to play with the big guns. (nukes) Maybe an asteriod will hit us.
I do think something might happen on 12-21-2012, the end of the mayan calendar, but I am not positive what it is. I have had dreams that include seeing the earth surrounded by a red glow, resembling flames or like an aurora borealis. I just have a hunch there will be some kind of "light show" on that date.........
It's not that far off, I will be curious to see if anything happens. I didn't have any feelings like this about the Y2K thing. Just another day.

I sure don't, but every generation has people who are certain it will. People naturally feel like their life is special somehow, and don't like admitting that life will go on without them.
Many Puritans were convinced 1666 was the end of the world. The first millennium, people were just as frightened as we were of Y2K. People thought the Black Plague was the end. Now, people are convinced by Middle East troubles or a misinterpretation of the Mayan calendar that the world is ending. It will be the same for the entire future of mankind, and boy will we be surprised when it happens!

Really? That's interesting. Actually the end of the world will not happen until after the tribulation and after the millennial reign of Christ, which is 1,000 years. I expect to be with the Lord before this.

Not really. The world will end when the sun becomes a red giant and Earth gets pulled into it. Not happening for billions of years.

no the world cannot end in our lifetime, Christ is going to return and rule this current earth from the throne of David for a 1000 years, so it cannot end in our life.

Yes, if I do not have any unforeseen occurrences as it says at Ecclesiastes 9:11.
