    I like to think it won't but I just often wonder

    pleasant thoughts I know

    I figure no nuclear bombs but animated characters will learn to leave our screens and become a race of their own , take over then end it - Im stretching I know

    But what do you think?

    Many people believe the world will end by 2012.  It seems there is always an ending, even to a new beginning.  There are people dying everyday, just as there are people being born everyday.

    Even our vehicles and buildings become weak, just as our bodies with age.

    I see animated manicans in the stores, reflecting our animated world we live in.  With our wourld wide net, tv, ipods, gameboys, x-boxes, now facebook, mysapce, and now twitter saying tweet, tweet!

    My sister-in-law showed me how we can be controlled and accountable to cartoon people by working out for the wii. 

    All this to say, that Heaven sounds like a wonderful place, if the world is going to end soon.  I like the thought that there is life after death.  It would be good to plan your destiny, to make sure you are headed in the right direction.

    If there is a Heaven there must be a Hell.  So the mado I grew up with is prepare for the worst and hope for the best.  I think preparing for Heaven would be the best:)  No matter what happens to or with this world!

    Well, if you really want to entertain the thought about the end of the world.

    I doubt it will ever happen.

    I'd like to think the end of the world would be very much like the ending in the Wizard of Oz. God will reveal himself from behind a proverbial curtain and grant the wishes of mankind and then everyone will be instructed to click their heels together three times and everything resets.

    My Dear Sweet Friends,

    The world shall never end.  It shall change as all things change. And, mankind shall change in like manner. The Creator is eternal, and all things art created of the Creator.  Therefore, all creation is eternal, even mankind!

    haha sneakorocksolid....."almost toast"....lol that cracked me up.



    But really...........the Bible says the earth will melt "with fervent heat".

    So I agree with your e-mail.   We're almost toast.   Or at least this planet will be, someday..

    I'm not too sure of 2012, but it is a very enteresting findings on this subject thats worth looking into.

    I love this topic, but I have a sick mind tongue

    Lets see some reasonable world enders?

    Super volcano in America going off, plunging the world into a new ice age. It is due, happens 250,000 years and last time was a bit longer then that and was one of the biggest extinctions in history.

    Less likely but still very possible, a super solar flare directly hitting the earth. A direct hit would strip the planet of its atmosphere in places and would wreak havoc with planets electromagnetic fields. Oh and all those satellites falling from the sky wouldn't help.

    There is the ever popular astroid strike, the sort that killed deno the dino. If we pull our fingers out we could actually prevent this one realistically I think.

    The e-bola virus mutates into something equally deadly but with a longer incubation period within the body and becomes airborne. This might not count as 1% will be immune so probably enough people to re-build.

    That environmental pollution alters the global environment to such an extent that most modern life including us are unable to survive or withstand it. Say loads of trapped methane in the worlds oceans is released by warmer oceans changing the very nature of our breathing air. Domino effect stuff.

    My personal favorite, some military experiment goes badly wrong. We could have real life zombies that way if the movies are to be believed!

    If all else fails we will eventually be swallowed by an expanding sun about to go nova. big_smile
