How many years until the end of humanity or the end of the world?

Question

When do you think the end of the world or the end of human beings will be? Will it be 20 years, 200 years, 2000 years from now?

Answer 1

Depends on what gets us

A plague or a comet/asteroid or nuclear war could happen any time.

If we survive all that, it will take the Sun another 4-5 billion years or so to "burn out" and destroy the Earth as it transforms into a Red Giant.

Answer 2

In 50 years or less there will be another 3 billion people on the earth. Climate changes, disease, loss of still more land for food production, political and social instability, are just a few areas that spell serious trouble.

The big word in the scientific community and among the tree huggers is sustainability. They look at a stress point about 100 years out.

I see an end to city life as most people know it in 40 years or one generation. Not the end of the world or of humanity; but a world without concerns beyond day to day survival. A place where every place is a disaster area

Answer 3

Nothing biblical I can tell you that will end the Human race on this planet, unless someone decides to start up another Holy War like the Crusades and see it through to the end.

My thoughts are a little broad on this subject, it all depends on Human interaction in the future, if we can learn to understand each other better, not fight over petty things like natural resources and religion... Barring some run-in from an asteroid, comet or other celestial thing, Humans will be around until the time that our decendants evolve past the form we have now and into a different creature (reptile, fish) who doesn't have the intelligence we do now.

Given all that, the world will end as scheduled, around 4.5 billion years when Sol goes nova and takes out all the Inner planets, Jupiter and Saturn with it during the death throws.

Answer 4

I think that it will be in the fall season around 2028-2030 or so because that would be around 2,000 years after Jesus died on the cross and rose from the dead. That was about 5,000 years after God created mankind making a total of 7,000 years. Since God seems to use the number 7 as the number of completion and the number 8 as the number of new beginnings, that could be the case. Also the fall season is when the feast of trumpets occurs and Jesus was crucified during the first feast of passover and the Holy Spirit came during the second feast of Pentecost and the third feast in the Jewish calendar is the feast of trumpets, plus Jesus said that there would be the trumpet call of God when He comes back.

Of course, I don't put any faith in that number. I could be off by a thousand years or my theory could have nothing to do with what God's actual plans are. But since you asked the question I thought I would throw my 2 cents in there.

2 Peter 3:8 But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 9 The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance. 10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the heavenly bodies will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed. 11 Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of people ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness, 12 waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be set on fire and dissolved, and the heavenly bodies will melt as they burn! 13 But according to his promise we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. 14 Therefore, beloved, since you are waiting for these, be diligent to be found by him without spot or blemish, and at peace.

Answer 5

that's tips relies off a Mayan calendar (that's the 300 and sixty 5 days the calendar stops). i don't comprehend why or how the Mayans got here to the conlusion that that's whilst the earth could end. i do no longer take it that heavily. all and sundry concept the international could bring about 2000 or whilst the planets final all aligned up. fact is, there is not any understanding whilst the earth will end. And im seeing way too many questions in this date at right here.

Answer 6

Well I currently follow an ancient Mayan prophecy that on December 21, 2012, the world will end. There is scientific evidence to back this up. NASA says that on that day, the sun will come into our earth's orbit and the world will wobble, causng major catastrophic events. Look at the links for more info. If the prophecy comes true, then live your life to the fullest now.

Answer 7

The Bible said that no man knows the exact time or hour that the son on man will appear, which means if your life isn't right, then you wont be gaurenteed a seat in heaven, you could at any minute get into a car accident and if your soul and spirit is messed up then you wont get in, he will say depart from me you workers of iniquity,

The way to do that,

is to repent after you hear the word, ask Jesus and the holy ghost into your heart and your life to save you and help you and lead you into the way to life, people say there is no Life affter death but thats a lie, because Jesus said I am the way truth and light, no man cometh iinto the father but by me, you cannot enter heaven by good deeds, He said that he is the everlasting one, and if you are not ready Imma pray for you.
the wages of sin death, but the way of righteousness is life everlasting.
HE will come when you least expect it are yo ready???

Answer 8

Probable path:

By the time we run out of oil, riots, drought, tsunamis, bad transportation, few coastal cities go a bit of under water. A thousands of people die. Less than fifty years.

We then start turning coal into oil. More global warming, faster than it is with oil. More drought, more heat, more tsunamis, more cities under water. Hundredth of people die. Less than a couple of hundred years.

We start picking methane hydrates from the bottom of the oceans and use it. More global warming, more drought, more tsunamis, more cities under water. Tenth of the people die. Less than five centuries.

Someone does a mistake and blows up a huge methane hydrate mine, dumping tons of methane in the air. All of us get fried and die. Less than a millenium.

That is the story of humanity. Cockroaches will probably survice. The world will keep spinning for another billion years.

Answer 9

Billions of years left yet till the sun burns out and engulfs the earth, unless some fools start a nuclear war in the meantime.

Answer 10

The earth's magnetic field is going to be awful low in a couple of thousand of years, by than anything else could happen.
