Possible nuclear wars aside... It is not coming. In my opinion, anyway...

Anyone believe otherwise?

I've always been fascinated with Revelations and End-Time prophecies... all that good crap.

I promise not to flame you for your ideas, as long as you're not an arrogant flamer douchebag yourself ^_^... Rather, I'd just like to learn why you think the way you do. For all I know, you could be right =p.

You know what... I changed my mind...

This Lightning storm that came from no where has almost convinced me that it's ending now 0_0... Huge bolts of lightning... pounding thunder... *sigh*... almost makes me feel like I'm in Oregon again ^_^.

Krem, you know what I'm talking about?

I'd give anything to experience the end of the world, and as soon as possible. A consolation prize would be to get sniped... um.. after I have my next cigarette.

Hell yea I know... clouds are white, light grey and broken and scattered across the skies, yet I see flashes of light and haven't heard the thunder stop rolling for about 60 min now. I smell rain now, and 15 min ago, the wind was going like crazy. I just looked outside and everything is still... I hope there's not gunna be a tornado, that'd just be TOO weird. Though I did see one touch down once... I was on the 95 heading South, somewhere around Jones or Summerlin Parkway. It was about 3 or 4 years ago, and from the angle and distance, I would have guessed it hit just a lil south of the end of Decatur (near the 215). Was rather different to see the cloud come down and have the ground meet it half way thru.

EDIT:
I can even see blue of the sky.

Thats interesting cause I was looking at the bible just the other day, looking over Revelations. My bible actually has something like a prolouge to the specific book of the bible. At any rate, it mentioned that these are not general relevations, but relevations of Jesus Christ. Genisis is the book of beginnings where as Revelations is the book of consumation... Jesus Christ's consumation to be specific.

This made me think.. if Revelations is mearly the consumation of Jesus Christ, does that really mean the end of mankind as we know it? or does that just mean the end of christianity?

I remember sitting out in the school yard with my friend when I was 14 waiting for the end of the world (some prediction of the time). That was nearly 20 years ago hehe.

The end of our planet will happen either when the sun goes supernova or we get slammed by an asteroid/meteor.

The end of mankind, well we're only a blip in the history of this planet anyway. Most likely scenarios are - we'll choke ourselves to death with pollution or some horrible superbug will get us (think SARS and AIDS).

Many people have predicted *the end of the world* and they've always been wrong.

Meh, I wouldn't take the prologue things to heart, I have some of those in my Bible, and some of the things they say are un-scriptural.

As to your questions about Jesus and His "consumation", you should know that the Bible was written about Jesus; He is the focal point of the entire book, both testaments. The Old Testament foretells His coming, the Gospels show His life, and the epistles tell us how to live like Him. So, Genesis is the beginning, Revelation is the end.

Revelation does not speak of the end of Christianity though, it speaks of the end of the heavens and the earth. In fact, it says that God is going to make a new heaven and earth for those who have been saved.

As to the original post, if you form your opinions from the Bible, there could still be varying opinions, because much of Revelation is metaphorical, so it is open to interpretation, or distortion, depending on where you are sitting. :)

If you're unsure what "As Vana'Diel Turns" is, here's the first three eps:
