End time/End of World stories come from Religious Scriptures.
Religion speaks of Man's corrupt nature throughout all time defying God Wishes, but Religion is here to help Man understand that so he will stop
doing it, then start doing what God intended.
The Vatican and Catholic Church is one of the largest, most powerful, etc. faiths to date, offering a Religious path to better understanding.
This Religious Faith(Cult) and it's Clergy & Members have also been prime motivators in Holy Wars (Dark Ages), Corruption up to it's highest levels
and Crimes both Civil and Political adding to a long history of Hipocricy, false motives and hidden agenda's resulting in the Death and Corruption of
the very people it was supposed to be helping. (Kinda similar to our Government of today huh!?!?)
This is not just Catholic but pretty much all Society Structures, Governments and Religions throughout all time have failed (and will fail) for these
same reasons.
Taking all this into account, perhaps these teachings, practices, rules, etc. are wrong, possibly even backwards resulting in the exact opposite
result some follow them for.
If so:
1. No end time, at least in the Religious sense. Rapture, Judgement, Good rewarded and Bad punished, etc. (Seems the cockroaches always survive, and
I don't mean the bugs!)
2. Following of any kind is wrong and we all need to be Leading ourselves only, having no followers of our own, making our own path instead of
following another.
3. Evil, Corruption and Failure will continue to cycle time and time again unless every person stops believing in what others believed and start
believing in themselves. No short cuts, no cheating off someone else's notes, no following in someone else's foot prints...After all how can you
anyone truly have 100% Faith and Belief in something that they did not experience and understand for themselves in every detail.
Just a thought...
