Maybe a good idea, but I can also see some big overlap. You got your "natural disaster" EOW which could fit under "Fragile Earth", the EOW from a religious perspective which would go under "Faith..." etc., the potential extraterrestrially- caused EOW for the UFO section, "Terrorist" EOW, Predictions of EOW, ....
IMHO this is a great opportunity for utilization of the tagging function. See a thread relating to end of the world, tag it as such where it will show up here-

Just my .02.

Maybe yer right, tags would be better, but that's some newfangled technology there, and I'm an old man set in my ways.

What's wrong with the Predictions and Prophecies forum for all those predictions of doom?

An End of World forum isn't a bad idea at all. I'm not pooping on it, I'm just not sure it's necessary. How 'bout a Quantum Physics forum? That seems to be controversial.
Some people collect postal stamps; Exit Mundi collects scenarios of what could go wrong with the world. Sure, our planet could get hit by an asteroid. But hey, that's nothing. Did you know we could all be munched away by hungry molecules? Or that our physicists could unintentionally wipe us all out while tinkering with particles? `Oops, sorry...'
Exit Mundi isn't in it for doom preaching, but strictly for fun. It's a fascinating thought: if that &*%#-comet didn't wipe out the dinosaurs 65 million years ago, we wouldn't be here pondering about apocalypses and armageddons in the first place. The dinosaurs roamed our planet millions of years longer than we did. If it wasn't for the comet, they still would.
That's why this site is a tribute to floods, quantum explosions and awfully big chunks of space rock falling out of the sky. If there's a lesson to be learnt, it should be that within every end looms the dawn of a new beginning. Sounds good, doesn't it?
