Philosophically speaking, Yes. There ought to be an end to this world that is.
Whatever is, has either been created or transformed. If it got created, it must one day get destroyed. If it came into being through any transformation, then one day it must get transformed into something else.
Conceptually though there is another possibility. This world did never come to be.... it was always there for ever like a continuum...... in that case it will always remain for ever and there will never be an end.
I prefer believing the first possibility because concepts like timeless unending continuum give me headache.

There will be. 2012 is the next date, people have been saying the world is going to end for centuries. Apparently the Aztec records only predict a future up til 2012, and they got everything else right...

There is an end to this world, and it is sooner than you could imagine. The moment you die, we forget about you till when you resurrect-at the end of the world. Therefore, the closer you get to the grave, the closer you get to the end of the world.

Yes.No.Who knows.
Tomorrow perhaps.
That's why we should always live like tomorrow's the end.
Only then would we stop to care whether there's really an "end" to this world.

Yes, at sometime.. But, no one knows when.. But, it will happen.. At the end of the world, a great big war that will end the world as we know it..
The war is called Armageddon.. A war that ends all wars...

Yes. Eventually there will be something that will distroy all life. It may come in the form of humans destroying the world, or by some natural disaster such as a black hole or our sun dieing out. luckly it may not be for another few million years, so nothing for you to worry about.

I believe that everything goes from order to chaos. According to that belief, there will eventually be an end to this world.

Why do we care this? Do U wanna live till the end of the earth? If you are a great philosopher, there will be. If not there won’t be.
