Im guessing that youre joking....\n\nBut the problem is, too many people share that sentiment. What if youre wrong? Do you really want to leave a legacy to your children that consists of a uninhabitable planet?? \n\nYou people have been predicting the end of the world for 2000 years. Youve been wrong so far. What if you continue to be wrong for another 2000 years??

I think 2001, because of 9-11, will go down in history as our worst because we lost our naivete`. We got a one day crash course in the frailty of human life,a rude awakening to just how much most of the world loathes us, and a new vocabulary of terrorist-speak.

I believe it is because we have all the signs that are in the bible, like family's hating each other, people love money rather than his fellow people, and and take a look at the earth, we have more disasters than before in the bible it says one earthquake after another, etc. We have a amazing increase of disasters. And this earth has an incredible amount of crime, hatred like never seen before, Yes we have had all of this forever but it is alarmingly bad now.

That's funny, Paul, yeah that Paul in the Bible, thought he would live to see the end times, and if he can be wrong about it, I most certainly think you are. Every generation thinks theirs is the end times. Things were so bad in 1000 AD, the Church was corrupt, the Pope was under seige in Rome, the average life span was like 35 years, there were comets and other astral events or "signs".etc., actually today we have it pretty good. Sorry, to throw water on your pity party!That's not sprinkled water either, but full immersion. Grow up and stop being so narcissistic. Every generation thinks they are the worst,and the end of days is near. You know what, we're just another generation getting our 70+ years, but look on the bright side, 70+ is a lot better than 35 a thousand years ago!

The seven years doesn't start all over again.  It's seven years from when it's first reported.

Mayan and Egyptian prophecies, which have been pretty accurate so far, state that in 2012 there will be a huge devastation, one in which the earth has encountered many times before.  There is suppose to be a polar shift followed by a comet. It is suppose to devestate the human race and leave very few to pick up the peices.  Not necessarily something you could prepare for, but at least if it started up you could be mentally prepared.  But who knows, there are many prophecies about worldly devastations.

Only among couples with low morals, selfish intentions, and lack of self discipline and character.  For people of high character and elevated morality, the seventh anniversary is a time to celebrate a milestone in marriage.  Having been married 26 years I know what I'm talking about here.

There will be a big crash like the 30, in one way worst since people now will vote in any idiot that they believe in that has a plan. Back in the 30 they did not look to the tit of the government to live there life, they were self made.\n\nThe reason there is a crash happening now is because they made the bubble and hear is how.\n\nhttp://www.breakingbubble.com/index.htm

People are people. Sometimes that means they need to convince themselves there's a reason they were lucky, or that they had some sort of aid to keep them going, or even that all the terrible things that happened in the 'hard times' happened for a reason ("they must have, the world couldn't be that cruel"). People have been using gods or stories about them to explain everything from the weather to lines of succession probably since before recorded history, it's not really surprising some people still need this sort of reinforcement now.

This is a question that only God can answer.....we do not know, and we cannot predict the future....I expect it will get worse though, haven't people gotten greedier and more selfish with each generation?

Not knowing that something bad is happening is one thing.  Knowing that something bad is happening and not caring is cruel.\n\nIf you got attacked/raped or something terrible on your way home, that would be bad.  If I saw it happening and did nothing, that is worse than the person comitting the crime.  They may be confused, ill, sick or mentally disturbed.  I, on the otherhand, posessing all of my faculties and in a position to do something, have a moral obligation to humanity to do that something.\n\nNow if I was 80 years old and could not stop the attack, I should at least raise a ruckas ... alert attention to it ...\n\nTo this day, those whom dismiss the horrors of it, fail to learn the tragedy and the events which led up to it are doing much the same ... walking down the sidewalk, not paying attention.\n\nIn other situations ... if you asked me for money ... well, you're not getting any, but the least I could do is to listen and emphasize ... "Gee, I'm genuinely sorry that I can't give you money."   Not to be confused with bearing no consequence at all to handing $1.75 to a stranger in the airport who's just trying to call his wife and doesn't have change.  \n\nSee ?

Not looking further into effects and what the results would be in the future. Not preparing for future generations who are the children of those here. Not taking in all issues-like environment-housing -health-food (the basics) into their future plans. Greed and selfishness of some. The uninformed who could not predict what would happen without knowledge.\n\n \nWonder what you and your friends came up with . Too bad we can't know.

Nobody knows for SURE when, but I think this year, more accurately this summer will be pretty bad as far as natuaral disasters.  and this guy i work with, thinks this summer heat will be unbearable, the hottest summer ever.
