Ok, so i saw a preview for that movie where we stop the core of the earth, and i saw I-robot, and i've seen the Matrix's. What do you all think about the end of the world?
my theory is that God, or a greator being of some kind is going to come back, but i don't think we are going to survive long enough. I believe that we are going to get ahead of ourselves with technology and destroy the earth. Whats all of your opionions?

Out of all the possibilities of the world ending I'm gonna have to say that it will be something like a gaint space catastrophe. Like a gaint metor or some freaky anomoly that cause the world to end. I took an astronomy class last semester and I learned that theres a ton of wierd stuff out there that could easily take this sucker out. Of course it may be thousands of years away before anything major happens.

If not that then probably some giant nuclear disaster. Think of how cool a post-apocolyptic world would be. We could all wear tire armor and have suped up cars just like in the Road Warrior. Of course we are gonna have to watch out for the all zombies, C.H.U.D.S, and evil cultists that litter the scorched planet.

About 2012, by the way: the importance of the number actually finds its roots in Mayan timekeeping. Mayans were the first people to invent the concept of 'zero'. Check it out here.

I don't agree with the whole 2012 thing. They said 2000 would be the end of the world, then they said there was a mistake between our time and god's time, so 2001 would be the end. Obviously its not the end. I don't believe that we will know when God (or whatever higher being you believe in) is planning on returning. I think it will be a shock and only true-believes in a "higher being" will be ready.
also, in my opionion it doesn't matter what you call that higher being, we all believe in the same thing, some call him god, others alaha(Sp?) i think it doesn't truely matter. I think beliefs don't matter, as long as you have belief and faith

Someone swearing isn't anymore likely to go on a killing spree than someone who doesn't. And someone seeing a nipple isn't gonna break any society down. Ever.



Unless the nipple has a secret weapon built inside it, of course, but that's why we have Arnold.

Our thoughts aren't His thoughts. This idea of God being "All Forgiving" isn't really Bible based either. I could be wrong, but I don't recall ever reading that.

Big difference between someone saying 'nipple' and someone saying you're going to hell though. ;)


Is it? Not just saying the word, but all of the material that follows the saying of the said word. Something this simple brings other language and other actions which could be shown to be a root,(not thee root) of moral and social breakdown which is experienced in our very own communities today. This in turn can create a sort of living hell in which you can't make a simple trip to the store or to a back without hearing someone cursing or using worse language. Language that you would hope your kids would never have to hear or be subjected too until they are of the proper age is just impossible now, but hey "LET'S NIPPLE IT UP FOR IT'S ALL IN GOOD FUN" :D :) :D :) :D

:(

If you want to comment on this further, go ahead but I am through. It is off the topic and isn't very profittable. Maybe I'm just insane.

I predict that one day, a mad scientist (most likely Aratan) will make George W. Bush and some really smart woman have a baby together. Jacen will then raise the baby to become as psychotic as its father and as brainy as its mother! That baby, my friends, will be the end of us! :eek:

LOL. Actually the devil is at work in the world today bringing annihilation to a great many where most people wouldn't even think to look for him. :(

We are a gaming community and of course we can chat on what we like but u should say after you comment on such things that this is your personal view and is by no means a true statment as to what will happen.


My personal view and my religeous beliefs are two seperate things all together. Furthermore to say that it is by no means a true statement would be calling the God of the Bible a liar. Again, my statement wasn't put out there to hurt anybody. I'm in the same boat with ya all in my eyes. Instead of letting the boat sink without removing a few blindfolds just seems criminal to me and I care way too much about you guys to just let that happen without trying to warn you.

Again this isnt a attack on anyone here i just didnt like reading that becuase i dont believe in something that i will be punished, i have a freedom to believe in anything i choose.


Do you? I mean, sure you can believe that there is a God out there somewhere or you can choose to believe that we all formed out of some sort of "Cosmic Fart" which has been called the Big bang and that everything so complexed and so amazingly well balanced came into existence. The choice is yours, but to truely discuss God, you should know a little more about Him. IMHO

I love you guys and I'm praying for you. :)

You know better. Again, no offense to Koyi at all, but I can totally see Monty's viewpoint.


I never said believe in what I believe nor did I say I'm not getting cast into the lake of fire. As I sit here typing this at this very moment of time, I have no real assurance that I will be spared. I continue in my sins and I don't know the mind of God.

If stating your beliefs is a form of prejudice, then all of these forums should be shut down as to not offend anybody at anytime in any subject. If someone asks me what I think of the end of the world, I'll share with them what I have learned from the Bible. I don't, "Believe or ELSE"!!!!!!!. I encourage you guys to stop by the Bible study forum for more actuate information of this whole thing. Your faith couldn't even save you anyway, it is God's work and His faithfulness that saves His elect.

I only share this information with you all because of the love and concern I have for you. If you really don't like what you read, stop reading my posts. :(

I too have realized the importance of those films. It lets us know that we have to be careful on what we create. If it does happen, I just hope there is someone there to save us.
