What will happen?

Question

I know that no one knows for sure but what do you suppose will happen the day the world ends? How will it happen and how will we know it's the end?

Answer 1

Mostly it is based on religion and your personal views of the great beyond.


Most likely, it will be several things that happen near simultaneously that will give credence to everyone. Fire falls from the sky which creates volcanoes which spew sulfer into the air. etc etc etc.



And as for it being the end. You just will. It will be as plain to see as a sunrise.

Answer 2

Religious folk are always predicting the end of the world "real soon now." They point to all sorts of signs and what they perceive as fulfilled prophesies and a general opinion that the world is going to hell in a handbasket. For thousands of years, people of all religious stripes have been utterly convinced that The End is Near.

And yet somehow, each day the sun rises and we're still here.

Recently, I've begun to see a lot of end-timers on the political left, predicting that global warming will be the end of us. This is essentially another religious view (in some circles environmentalism is for all practical purposes a religion), unsupported by science, as even the worst-case (and most unlikely) scenarios for global warming do not include the end of mankind.

Assuming we don't get punched by an asteroid or succumb to a full-scale nuclear war--both extremely unlikely, IMHO--then we've got at least a few hundred million years ahead of us before the aging and heating up of the sun makes Earth uninhabitable. And I like to think that long before that time comes, mankind will have moved out first to the other planets, then out among the stars.

Earth will eventually be reduced to a cinder by the sun in a few billion years, but I'm an optimist (and a realist) that mankind and its more evolved descendants will find a way to continue.

Answer 3

It depends on how you define the "end of the world." Is that when all life on the planet ceases? Or do you mean when the sun's diameter expands to swallow up the inner planets?
If it is the first premise, then it depends on the cause. It could be by a global catastrophe such as Earth being hit by a asteroid, nuclear holocaust or a plague of incurable disease.
If it is the second, then if humankind is still around then it could take a while. The temperature will steadily climb until all food sources are eliminated and people who do not die due to heat and solar radiation will starve or die of thirst.
In either case, it is likely the human race will go out with a whimper rather than a bang, over the course of weeks or even years.

The world in true sense and as per the laws of nature - very simple yet very balancing , can never get destroyed. However, the human civilization can - the way we are going we are headed for destruction.

From the very beginning the process of thought have created a sense of separation... a sense of division... right from the day we invented fire... and came across the barbecued flesh... when we invented crops..planting seeds, keeping cattle.... it has driven us towards insecurity... we wanted security.. we wanted the security from hunger, security from the other tribe, security from the animals, security from the storms, security from the fellow people. We formed clans, groups, marked our cattle, territories... and stayed in groups with a belief that this will give us security...

And later we started breaking up humanity in every form of isolation - on the basis of religion on the basis of nationalities, economics, commerce, ideology, philosophy and advanced toward fragmentation and destruction. We "thought" there was security with the tribe, with the religion i follow, and with the nation i live. That is our knowledge made us think that we are secure with a particular group ..and so on and so forth we created different nations, different flags, set up boundaries and each nation started thinking they are different from the other....

As of now our greatest enemy is our mind - mind which created science, commerce and religion - and this three has the potency of destroying this civilization as we ourselves are violent, greedy, over-ambitious and divisive. Science in our hands only emits poisonous gases, makes missiles and spread aids. Commerce creates social division, famine and unrest while religion built on our insecurity - uses hate and so far has been the greatest killer.

Nature on the other hand has a balancing act - if you are a weak insect - you get the power to hide camoflague yourself - if you are a sea fish you get a slim body - everything is there to learn from nature - you play too much with nature - nature will erase you and again bring about a new life form suitable for the balance. Remember dinosours - they ate up all the trees and nature caused flood to erase them. The end is never there unless we bring it ourselves :)

Answer 5

Different religions predict different endings. So no one can tell you for sure what is going to happen. But you'll definitely know it when the time comes.
