I agree these events are worrisome. Is the end of the world or the age near that I don't know. What I do know is even if the end is nearing I will still plant my trees and flowers. I will still take care of my backyard and I will still enjoy the sun and the rain. I will still recycle and conserve as much as I can. I will still love God and my family. There really isn't much else I can do.
I think that the fact that there is a current change in consciousness, if you will, is accelerating everything.

Yes but, do you believe in the collective consciousness of mankind?
Are we bringing this upon ourselves in more ways then one?

As for your question whether we are bringing what is happening to us, imo we are not, everything that is happening has been decided to be this way a long time ago, and our true selves, the immortal part that exists in each one of us agreed to be part of what is happening now.

That is probably true to some degree. Although, I think it's happening a bit faster than what we bargained for.

Well, Muadibb, I don't view what is happening as bad. I don't think the earth has ever experienced the changes it's experiencing now because consciousness didn't influence the global changes in the past.
Most of the changes that occurred in the past were just "mechanistic," if there is a such of thing, occurrence.

And exactly how do you know that?
There are cultures in the Earth which say mankind has been around a lot longer than the "western version of history", as an example the Vedic scriptures of India state that mankind has been around for at least a million years. They also state that mankind during that time in the past were involved in nuclear wars which destroyed parts of the middle east and India.

I will address what I mean though. I don't think that man has ever experienced an awakening such as what humanity is currently experiencing.
Stormdancer, most people say that wormwood was probably the Chernobyl explosion in the 1980s. It seems that some events in the bible have been written out of sequence. I don't know if it was done that way to purposefully confuse or not, but it certainly seems that has happened.

in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up
you're basing this assumption off of a 2000 year old fictional story meant to help people in their day-to-day lives by telling stories with relevant morals?
some old nutjob with a vendetta against the romans writing stories about their downfall in a cave while in exile has no bearing on the events of the present
Layers of rock with relative distances from the crack were oriented different ways to become magnets. While the lava cools, the rock orients itself towards the magnetic north. Well, turns out the magnetism of the poles CHANGE over the course of around 2000 years. In other words, magnetic north is sometimes north and other times south depending on the period of the earth's history.
Nobody knows why the magnetic north switches sides every 2000 years or so, but this was used like the rings in a tree to determine the age of rocks away and near the crack which supported Hess's theory that we use today. We've been so used to magnetic north for so long, it hasn't crossed our minds to think it hasn't always been that way. In fact, we are long overdue for a magnetic reversal. It has been 6000 years since the last one.
Scientists suggest that the magnetic reversal is happening now! Over the last decade, the magnetism has reduced by 10%, and at this rate, magnetism will be nonexistant within 90 years or so. Who cares right? Well there has been a very noticeable trend of extinctions and evolutions associated with these magnetic reversals. Half-way when the magnetism is 0 on its way to reversal, there won't be anything to block the sun's rays, and the UV rate will be incredibly high. This is why, they think, that the ozone layer is being depleted slowly.
The news comes at an opportune moment. The Earth's magnetic field is showing worrying signs that it is about to reverse again. Not only has the magnetic north pole wandered by 1100 kilometres in the past 200 years, but its strength is dropping at a rate of 5 per cent a century.
"This is the fastest decrease since the last reversal 730,000 years ago," Lesch says.
