Oh, my god! We're doomed. This means that on June 6th, 2106 I'll be dead! I won't live to be 135 years old. Oh, man! This is so unfair! I'm already depressed! June 6th., 2006 is a terrible day, after all. :-)

I think by the time it's 3006, we will be in a technological war, rather than people fighting people it will be robots fighting robots.... either that, or by then everyone will be dead from radiation from all of the nuclear bombs that are being built...the world's going to end eventually, and I think it has a slim chance of being here in 3006.....it's sad but very true to me.

I believe it's predicted by the Mayan calendar in December of 2012 the world will end.  Hopefully it won't though.  *crosses fingers*

Hey KB--these are dark days, but I don't think it's the end of the world, or even of the US. Clearly, democracy in the U.S. is in a bad place right now, and there are a lot of signs that the U.S. world dominance might not be as hunky-dory as it looked 10 years ago. \n\nBut still, we are a strong nation with good people, and over time, we will recover from this. Our democracy will stand, and people will come to see some of the mistakes we've made over the last 5 years. Corruption and short-sightedness are nothing new. We will never completely leave them behind, but we have overcome them before, and we will do so this time.\n\n\n(It might be presumptuous, but I'm going to bet you're in your teens or early 20's...at that age, it often seems like each crisis is the biggest one ever and that some kind of Apocalypse is near, but now that I've got an extra decade or two, I realize that history has it's rhythms and humanity always manages to muddle on somehow).

I don't think the world..., as in earth will never end unless it gets sucked into a black hole..., as for life..., we have a good billion years yet before our sun get too hot then it won't be able to sustain life... As for the species homo sapiens..., we haven't reached our peak yet in the bell curve..., and when that happens..., our population will drop..., big time..., would it be enough to eliminate our species???, fair chance because we are very dependent on technology to survive...\n\nSo what year..., my guess would be in 10 years..., 2016... and I predict by a super virus that can jump from host to host in a blink of an eye...\n\nbut who knows...

I believe we are living in the last days, if you read the Bible you will see that a lot of the prophecies have come to pass.  It may be 10 or 20 more years but yes, I do believe these are the end times.

Generally yes, I do believe the world will come to an end. Not necessarily as it predicted in religous text but eventually the world will cease to exsist from one disaster or another.

There are many questions that cannot be answered, yours are among them.  The end of the world is impossible to predict, and what will end it cannot be known.  I don't see anything happening too soon, so I woudn't worry about it if I were you.  The Sun won't explode, yet there will come a time -- so far into the future that neither you or I will have to worry about it -- that it will burn out.  God is merciful.  As long as there are a few of us who believe in God, He won't wipe us out.  I believe that God just let us on our own, to see how we handle his gift of the universe.

Well, I don't think I can convince you; you're apparently believing false information...but rest comfortable in knowing that the atmosphere is not deteriorating and nothing drastic is going to happen…during your lifetime.\n\nThat being said, eventually, the Earth (and its atmosphere) will wind down to a point where it won't sustain human life. That's the natural process, but we won't see it for several billions of years.\n\nHumans couldn't destroy the atmosphere or planet if we tried...even with nuclear weapons.\n\nOther people may answer with differing opinions, but their "evidence" is based on false science and anecdotal evidence and is designed to be alarmist. There's no rest for the weary!

I don't think it is going to happen for thousands of years.\n\nThere will be millions killed when all the wacko countries get the nuclear bombs and civilization will be set back thousands of years.\n\nThis is just my theory but I think there will be small areas of the world that will survive and thus the human race will not be completely wiped out.\n\nThere may be other natural disasters as a result of the changing environment.\n\nThe future does not look to good and it is scary to see some of these goofball countries with the bombs.\n\nI just hope and pray that the good countries can stay ahead of the bad ones and keep stopping them before they kill us all and that is exactly what they want to do IMO.

There are always prophesies about the world ending. When one doesn't come true and time passes on then society starts looking for the next clue - or the old prophecy is reinterpreted! I think science beats them all, since they predicted that if we did not change our ways the Earth would make us suffer. Now we are seeing its true - though science says we are too late to change anything now. I guess we'll see who was right when the time comes!  I think the world will end just as science says, by catastrophic global changes, and that will happen on a big enough scale to finally end us all on the date the Mayan calender runs out...... :)  Or it could be 6-26-06...who knows?!!\n\nIn the meantime check out this prediction: http://www.theworkofgod.org/Pope/saint_malachy_prophecies.htm

I will say this now.  For years, growing up in a Christian family, I have heard of those bizarre "revelations" of the end of the world, from books about Nostradamus, to the yearly "The world is gonna end on __" issues of the supermarket tabloids.  \n\nNo mere mortal man or woman on this Earth, whether the greatest of saints or the lowliest of sinners, will EVER know when the world is going to end. \n\nIn Hell, the devil does not know, nor do any of the damned or any of the servants of Hell.  not a one. \n\nWhat about those in Heaven?  Not a single angel, human that has gone to Heaven, and not even Jesus himself knows when the end of the world will come.  \n\nOnly one knows the exact year, month, day, hour, minute, and second that the end will come.  And that is God alone.\n\nThose people that you see walking the street, "shouting the end is coming," they are only human.  Unless they are God in human form, they don't know anything.  \n\nYes there will be wars and rumors of wars, earthquakes, and natural disasters.  But they have existed since the beginning of civilization.  \nThere will always be war, and earthquakes, and etc.  The end of the world can happen on a "normal" day on this planet, when we least expect it.  \n\nRemember, it will happen as quick as a twinkling of an eye, and will come as a thief in the night.  \nAnd we will not know when that will be.  could be the millisecond after you read this, could be tomorrow, or in 10 years...\n\nas humans, we do not know, and will never know, until it actually comes.\n\nSo get right with God, and be ready.

Do I fear is a car is going to hit me, fear that I'll die from cancer, fear that I'll be mugged by a gang, that I'll be bombed / nuked, fear that I'll die tomorrow or years from now from old age?  Something, somewhere to anyone, anytime...there has always been illness, war, fear.  I reside in California and remember back in the 1960's that fathers were having bomb shelters built in their backyards due to outside bomb threat of another country....now here it is 2006 and there are still worries, different story, different decade.  I am attentive and caring of world affairs yet to go around worrying that I might die tomorrow or next year from some event...no.  Out of worry comes attentiveness and solutions or neglect, ill judgment and harm...we are wonderfully silly people on this planet...I do what I can and live my life.  I am a citizen who votes to put those in office to focus on issues you speak of while I still voice my concerns and opinions even after the fact.  But to worry . . .whatever the circumstances that takes my last human breath away and I am no longer on this planet...so be it.  I live in the today, am attentive and live my life.

My dear child,this planet has been here for a very long time,it is true that billions of years ago the known universe was a shooting gallery but for life to have survived on this planet it had to and did calm down,the truth of the matter in any thing science Say's or the surgeon general of the day is an op pinion of eather one man or a few,that happen to have your ear at the time,all things have settled into a daily(or millennium) routine but that doesn't sell papers,man is no god and man even if he thinks so can not even in math predict the future events.there are universal safe guards in place,live,love and forget that which can not be substantiated.enjoy life be a good personthis is all I ask.
