Isaac Newton predicted the 'end of the world' will happen in 2060!

www.iflscience.com...

It's a credit to how good Isaac Newton was at physics and math that people rarely mention that time he threatened to burn his mother's house down, or the equally-baffling time he stuck a number of needles into his own eyeballs to see what would happen.

Yes, when Newton wasn't revolutionizing our notions of motion and gravity he was, by today's standards, a bit of a weird dude. As well as dedicating a lot of his spare time to the study of alchemy – a medieval belief that metals could be turned into gold – Newton had a keen interest in the occult and the Biblical apocalypse

So Isaac Newton was, apart from a great mind and a great scientist, a deeply religious person and a great conspiracy theorist entertaining a number of conspiracy theories with much emphasis given to the 'end of days' or the 'end of the world' and reflecting his protestant understanding of the Bible as described in the article.

Newton believed in the apocalypse and by 'end of says' or 'end of the world' he thought that around the year 2060 Jesus Christ will come again and establish the Kingdom of Peace. The second coming of Jesus in a few words but Newton attempted to give a year Jesus will return to earth!

According to a number of articles (even mentioned in this one) he said that the 'end of days' may come to a later date but he sees no reason the end will come sooner. It's only 36 years left until the year 2060 and I predict that Isaac Newton is about to be proven wrong just as it happens with all similar predictions and prophecies.

the good news is, you can predict that and be wildly accurate, .....until you aren't.

The bible itself says that no one knows when it will happen.
Guessing can be fun, but it's ridiculous.
And ALL guesses have been wrong.

Newton was an amazing man.

He supposedly came up with his genius theories of gravity and motion when he was a shut-in for over a year to prevent him from contracting the bubonic plague.

So in some ways we have the plague to thank for space travel.

How cool is that?

If it is May 1 then it would be my 100th birthday. What fun that would be.

In case anyone was wondering about the eyeball thingie:

Scientists occasionally conduct experiments on themselves. Among the most famous was Isaac Newton's extraordinary method for probing the nature of colour. He stuck a bodkin, a long sewing needle with a blunt point, into his eye socket, between eye and bone, and recorded seeing coloured circles and other visual phenomena.

Sensing Hooke's reluctance to support him, Newton tells a lie. He claims that he has stabbed a bodkin under his eye to prove his own theory about the nature of light — and disprove Hooke's. Hooke calls his bluff, but when the scientists perform the experiment for real — first on a semi-willing subject, then on Newton — the truth is no clearer. The wincing in the audience during these highly realistic scenes was almost palpable, however.

Only two things are for certain: 1. Death and 2. If you fall asleep in a tank top you will find yourself waking up with one hanging boob out.

I've been diving into the world of alchemy recently, mostly the history involved and learning about the full hermetic corpus of studies.
According to a lot of sources Newton had always been interested in alchemy, and during his time if you supported such studies it was looked down upon quite a bit, there was a stigma attached to still, especially being highly criticized by the church.

The funny thing is, alchemy is more than just trying to turn lead or lesser metals into noble ones, it was the first steps towards the scientific method, a man like Newton interested in the natural universe would easily find the world of alchemy similar in many ways and would be swoon over by its romanticized alure of finding secrets within simple natural 'ingredients' and performing wierd experiments on themselves or other people and living creatures.

I believe that a lot of what's said about Newton is only just the surface of what he was doing behind closed doors and what his actual world views were. I have a suspicion that a lot of his beliefs were rather "white washed" as in, made to look like he was spiritual in the sense of believing in a Christian religion, I mean he was accused of heresy for even just giving out a different opinion on God.

Okay, give him the benefit of the doubt, but was the part of him threatening to burn his mother's house down true? That's some crazy crazy right there.

I had to look that one up. But, he sounded like any angry, overly dramatic teenager as he wrote that in his diary as a later teen.

Galileo too.

F#cking church.

Their motto should be - Christianity: Stifling science and ideas since time immemorial.

1st of May 2060 it is!

Xtrozero's 100th birthday and... The second coming of Jesus Christ!

I wonder who the President would be. Any thoughts?

Only thing about Newtons theory? He didn't predict his own death.

Theres that....

Probably many of what we now call scientists were engaging in all sorts of activities. Some of them cound be deeply religious and interested in the occult and what we now call the paranormal world. It is however not that strange as personal beliefs, religion, the occult, strange phenomena, were part of people's lives and were not considered incomparable with science. But Newton is known for god views and I am sure he has spent more time researching the metaphysical world rather than studying physics. He was a great conspiracy theorist!

Very difficult to find someone who has actually done it unless they committed suicide or asked someone to kill them at a given day and time so to prove a point.

I'll be 87 then lol, but as the record holder of 'male longevity' in my family, is my dad who died aged 69...I don't hold much hope!🤣

As I dig a little deeper: (wish I hadn't)

Newton had written in his college notebooks about himself, “Making pies on Sunday night… punching my sister… threatening my Father and Mother Smith to burn them and the house over them.”

Newton did not like criticism and made lifelong enemies with those who criticized him.

When Newton was being criticized by fellow scientists, he began a life of solitude and total isolation in 1679 and remained in this state for the next 6 years of his life.

Newton suffered twice with a nervous breakdown. This happened when he suspected that his friends conspired against him.

Newton was obsessed with power and reputation.

In addition to his scientific achievements, Newton is also known for his participation in the “Great Clockwork Controversy,” a dispute over the nature of the universe. Newton believed that the universe was like a clock, with God as the clockmaker, and that all events in the universe were predetermined.

The most valuable tooth in the world belongs to Newton. His tooth was sold in 1816 at an auction for approx $3600.

and finally...

Newton estimated that the world would end no earlier than 2060.

This is how Isaac Newton Predicted the end of the world:

How did he do this? Newton also wrote extensively on matters of religion, and in this particular letter written in 1704, he claimed to have determined the year the world would end by studying the Book of Daniel. According to the British brainiac, "the ruin of the wicked nations, the end of weeping and of all troubles" will take place in the year 2060.

"It may end later, but I see no reason for its ending sooner," he added, cryptically suggesting that there may be more time than that. He made this prediction to "put a stop to the rash conjectures of fanciful men who are frequently predicting the time of the end." (Me: Say what?)

What did Newton read in the Book of Daniel that led him to this damning conclusion? According to Ancient Code, it was one specific passage: "Sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and a half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished."

Those of us who aren't acclaimed geniuses may need some explanation of the conclusion Newton drew, which, it seems, revolves around the telling words "time, times, and a half." What Newton tried to do was determine a particular timescale for the apocalypse. For him, this wording suggested a period of 1,260 days (a number seemingly used elsewhere in the Bible), which he adapted to mean 1,260 years for his purposes. With that decided, he had another pressing question to answer: The world would end 1,260 years from when?

Newton wrote (per Ancient Code) that A.D. 800 (the year Charlemagne created the Holy Roman Empire) would be a perfect year to begin counting from. Using 1,260 years gives us an end date of, yes, 2060.

Newton adapted the Bible's wording for his purposes...hmm, where has that happened before?

Let's randomly choose A.D. 800 to begin our calculations.

Isaac Newton feared God and had a love of his word. He could easily see it was divinely inspired as he sat down and studied it. Anyone with an open mind that took the time to study God's word the Bible and history sees the divine nature of it because of the accurate prophecies of future events that always came to be. Unfortunately he lived in an era that the "Man of Lawlessness" or the clergy of Christendom, in this case the Catholic Church, an apostatized form of pure Christianity had risen as both Jesus Christ, and Paul, among other had foretold. So his studies into the scriptures that revealed many errors of the dogma and doctrines of the Church and which he wrote had to be guarded until the end of his life so that he was not persecuted or murdered by the Church as they had done to countless other stalwarts that stood up for truth.

Among other things he understood the language of prophecy. A couple decades ago I read his book he wrote on Biblical prophecy, I wish I had kept the work but it seems to have gotten lost. I was amazed at how accurate and precise he was in his understanding of these prophecies, many which Jehovah's Witnesses understand the same way today. Isaac Newton understood that there is one God, Jehovah and his son Jesus Christ was his first creation by whom God created all other things. He understood that in prophecy mountains represent the governing bodies or ruling classes, and the earth represent the subjects of that government, or the people who are being ruled over, among other things. So prophecies pertaining to a new heaven and new earth have to do with the ruling body and the subjects of that government, not the literal heaven and earth.

And as the OP pointed out he understood accurately that the kingdom of God is a real government in Jesus' Christ's hands that doesn't begin to rule over the earth until after Armageddon. The 1,000 year rule of God, or of his Christ, the millennial rule. Jehovah's Witnesses have always understood that Satan is the ruler of this world, and that Jesus Christ will begin to rule from heaven over the earth when he has warred with and conquered all the world rulers at Armageddon and establishes his reign of peace for the 1,000 years over humankind on earth.

The Catholic Church and the clergy of the other Churches of Christendom, the Protestants, and the Orthodox do not teach these fundamental Bible truths because it would reveal them as hypocrites and dead spiritually as they support and uphold human governments.

Charles Taze Russell moved by God's holy spirit saw that Christ came into kingdom power in heaven and the beginning of the last days began in 1914 and that was the herald of the start of the "last days" in which this good news of God's kingdom would be preached in all the inhabited earth as a witness to all the nations and then the end would come, a witness work that has been accomplished by Jehovah's Witnesses by the grace of God's holy spirit, in which the angels as reapers have separated both the wheat, genuine anointed Christians who are to go to heaven to rule with Jesus in that 1,000 years over the earth, and the "other sheep" which are not of that small fold, Christians who have a genuine hope of living forever in perfection of life in the future paradise on earth, from the chaff, or weeds, fake Christian, in name only who are prolific and make up the nominal members and their clergy of the religions of Christendom. In fact the name itself, Christendom - Christ's Kingdom, betrays Jesus Christ, as it teaches that Christ's kingdom is on earth and is ruled by humans of the Churches of Christendom, governments who are in opposition to Jesus heavenly rule and his government. Thus the lie of the divine right of kings and others that the Churches of Christendom have promulgated over the centuries to the detriment of the common people.

In Noah's day the last days lasted 120 years. And during that time Noah built an ark and was a preacher of righteousness to that wicked world. If, and I'm not saying that this is true, as FlyersFan pointed out Jesus said no one knows the day or the hour, not even he knew, only the Father in heaven, but if the last days today last 120 years we would come to the year 2034, thusly the number in my name RandomUser2034. It may come sooner it may come later. It could be when Isaac Newton predicted. We really don't know until it happens.

But we can look at world events and now for a certainty that we are living deep in the time of the end and that Jesus' kingdom rule will soon be established over the earth to the great joy and jubilation of all righteous humanity, and animals and the earth itself wherein all good people will find lasting respite from the wickedness that is happening on earth, and the earth will rest from those who have been ruining it.

Darn, 2060? Bummer, I most likely won't live that long. Maybe I will live to 2050 the most.

I wouldn't mind seeing what will happen in the future with the way the societies are growing here in America. I think I may be masochistic or something to want to witness all the deceivers, thieves, people hooked on drugs and meds, etc.

Maybe I should abandon my desire to stay alive to see the destruction of mankind. It would be much simpler to check out in five to ten years instead of having to deal with technology screwing up people's consciousness in the future. People seem to be loosing their ability to think on their own these days, they are too focused on social media influencing them. Media seems to be the ones that are spreading information that is not being expressed properly.
