How do you think the end will come?

I saw something similar in the "Global Meltdown" forum and I thought this would be a great thread for here. Just post a simple and direct summary of how you think it will end. No long drawn out link to "My dearest child in heaven" religion post that make the eyes dry out or 5 google videos of planet "X"s ride through our galaxy. Brief to the point of how you think it will end and why you think this.

It is not going to be one thing not even a few things but dozens if not more things all coming together at once. A perfect storm type of deal. When it happens we are going to get hit from every direction at once.

there are no ends
only new beginnings

Hopefully when it does end i will have two naked blondes next to me feeding me beer and chips and a little something extra for laters

The end will most likely come at a single point in time where everyone on the planet is on the toilet and about to wipe.

If you mean the end of our species, then by nuclear warfare (there might be a few survivors left). However, we don't have to be here. This planet will continue to spin on its axis regardless of us being here or not.

I suspect the biggest potential will be genetic viruses down the line that get out..

Civilization ending with a cough.

I look forward to seeing myself in the credits though...and they will probably make a sequel (problem is, sequels never really match up to the original)

when you say the end what exactly do you mean ?
End of human kind ? End of the world ?

I don't think anything is ending, we are going through some volatile times with the world economy, kinda a downward spiral and not doing much to resolve it, we are just extending the fuse to a ticking time bomb. I see this ending in a chaotic way, just like the great depression and we all know how that ended.

There is always the possibility of Japan having another big earthquake and everyone getting killed by radiations...or getting hit by a bus.

I don't buy the nuke death. Frankly, after a few bombs are dropped, and some cities are levelled, the entire world will stop and look at the horror that just happened...so, its controllable overall. Frankly, once a few modern day nukes are dropped on a city, the overall effect may be quite positive..imagine a world no longer wanting this type of weapon anymore, and being serious about it.

I think we are in an unusual period of calm in our solar system. It has been so calm that our sciences advanced because we were not spending so much time trying to survive. We have always been able to advance quickly but there usually isn't much time for it. I think countless civilizations have been on this earth and their structures were wiped clean from the slate because it is a violent universe. Soon, the eye of the storm will pass and we will once again be in a place and time that doesn't allow people to think so highly of themselves.

I think the last people here build sturdy storage sheds that could take massive floods and great quakes that are more the norm. We just happen to call them pyramids.

I mean it in an egocentric kind of way. The end, or quite nearly, of man. I think all things are cyclic but we are mostly aware of a small part of one cycle. Not going Mayan on you With so many things coming down the pike how do you think man will end?

By reading another thread about the end of times. That's how it will end for ATS.

It'll overload the servers with too many topics on this subject.

Hit search button and watch the sight implode.

Well done.

HYPNOTOAD FORCES ME TO AGREE!!

meh,
beginning, end.
life, death.
it's all so very trivial... in the grand scheme of things.
perhaps.
overall, i suppose global pandemic is the most likely.

"First of all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our fathers died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.” But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens existed and the earth was formed out of water and by water. By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare." 2 Peter 3:3-10

"Yet when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was two more days." John 11:6

"The next day he took out two silver coins and gave them to the innkeeper. 'Look after him,' he said, 'and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.'" Luke 10:35

The predictions of Nostradamus say that there will be a Russian/Iran/China/Muslim nations initiated war on Europe and the US and retaliation using all new WMDs leading to wipe out of the major population of the world followed by a comet/meteoroid shower that generates earthquakes and tsunamis which will reduce the population some more.

I see it happening already with NATO declaring a missile shield in Europe. There probably is something amiss that has NATO taking this action during a period of global economic chaos. Strategically speaking, Europe and the US are going through a period of instability which the other countries may want to take advantage of. The predictions also point that world war 3 will be very short but much more damaging than the other world wars. With only 6 months to spare, I feel we are quite near the start of the end and change.

Briefly, I expect, WWIII-population reduction-comet strike-earthquakes/tsunamis-pole shift-population reduction-Peace and rebuilding of civilization.

I think it will come as a surprise, like a big hitting a windshield. Now I got a Monty Python-ish view of the world hitting a brick wall and cracking like and egg.

Well, I have seen my death and it isn't really fun, when a Deja Vu happen, and whatever I do to try to change this deja vu doesn't work, I will die.

That is my end.

I do not know about other people death. I can only see my death. I can also see my past death, from past life. And I have recently start to see other people death, or maybe predictions, I am still not sure of my last visions. I still don't know what to think of them.

When I saw predictions, I am not talking predictions like nostradamous...

Since I was young i never dreamed, all I dream of are nightmares, I will call them nightmares for you, but for me, they are more like movies. So we will call them dreams. I am not afraid anymore because I have seem more scary things then bad dreams in my life.

Most people I talk with say they can interact in dreams, well I cant.

My dream just happens and I can't change anything about them. I die countless times in my dream.

Funny thing is when I wake up in the morning I am rested, even if I died all night.

I have come to this understanding when speaking with someone who have read a lot about this, just recently.

If you wan't an example:

I am in a party, I know I am not myself because I am a lot taller then I am, I am 5'11'' 185lbs and in my dream I was much taller like 6'4'' 200lbs. So in a party and when the party end, my ride home is gone, so I start talking with friends and i find myself a home for the night in an after party, so I go, on the way there, i meet a girl and we decide to have fun during after party and then sleep together. During the night, people showup in this bedroom, around 6-7 people, we all gather around the bedroom and start talking, then this guy, stab me in the neck with a needle, then they proceed to torture me and then kill me. I will not go into details because i bet It could make some people disgusted.

Those are the kind of dream I make, always.

I do not remember all of them, most of them, when I wake up I know I have dreamed but then I think of something else and forget about what I just dream about...

What about you all?

I don't think the Bible refers to a literal world destruction, but a new world order (not the global conquest version). Two prophets are predicted to arrive, spread some truth, and then be martyred. I think they will convince many of the hidden reality, but won't entirely succeed in changing the world until after their martyrdom. This will spotlight evil's puppets, allow the good to patch up the rips, and provide an opportunity for everybody to win/win. As for the threat of overpopulation, I think the 144,000 Israel descendants (not exclusively native to Israel = mixed bloodlines) prophesied about in Revelation are to be chosen for the purpose of sustaining the human population, while the rest peacefully agree to pass on without reproducing. Don't worry, we'll all be coming back someday. Even the demons! I have you covered my brothers!

True, most catastrophics happened just like that or at the time nobody ever thought!
