2010+ In early 2005, Roderick C. Meredith, leader of the Living Church of God wrote in his church's magazine Tomorrow's World that the end of the world is near. He said that events prophesied in the Bible are "beginning to occur with increasing frequency....We are not talking about decades in the future. We are talking about Bible prophesies that will intensify within the next five to 15 years of your life." This prophecy, or a local sermon based on it, may have been partly responsible for triggering a mass murder in Brookfield WI on 2005-MAR-12. Church member Terry Ratzmann, who was experiencing serious depression and facing unemployment, shot 11 people, killing 7, and then killed himself at a church service. 1

2011-SEP-29: Harold Camping, president of Family Radio is reported as predicting that the end of the world will occur sometime during the eight day Feast of Trumpets in 2011. This is an eight day festival each fall in the 5th day of Ethanim, the seventh month. He has completed a book "Time Has an End: A biblical History of the World 11,013 BC – 2011 AD," Vantage Press, (2005). Read reviews or order this book safely from Amazon.com online book store. Alternately, you could wait until after 2011-SEP when the book will probably be a lot cheaper.


2011: Ric Steiner sent us an Email suggesting that the date of the end is embedded in Luke 21:11 -- not in the text, but in the chapter and verse designation. "21" refers to the 21st century; "11" refers to the 11th year. The problem with this prophecy is that the chapter designations in the Bible were only created in the 13th century CE; the verses in the Christian Scriptures (a.k.a. New Testament) were only assigned in the 16th century CE. 9

2011-NOV-11: We received an Email from "A.H." who believes that the end of the world will happen on 11/11/11. His reasoning is that "...this is the only date until the next millennium that has the same number "1" in the date." Actually, it is the only date until 3011 which is made up of the repetition of pairs of the same digit. We are skeptical. Recall that the Gregorian Calendar is based on the year 1 CE having being arbitrarily chosen. It occurred four to seven years after Jesus birthday, when nothing much of world impact was happening. With an arbitrary beginning, it doesn't make a lot of sense to assume that the end of the world would happen at some magical combination of numbers in the Gregorian date, like the first day of the year 2000, or 11.11.11.

2001-NOV-22: We received an Email from "F" who expects the end of the world on this date. She/he said:

"what the angel told me was the following: 'Child is at home in 2011 will be the end, for 3 days close in doors and windows? don't let anyone enter or leave the house, an old order is reborn and with it the pain and suffering.' Then the angel showed me the bodies of people crowded the cities were burning and the streets deserted grass grew high, we throw people also saw blood in the mouth, as if a virus is up. What I saw in Europe was perhaps France, or in Flanders."

2012: This year seems to be a major focal point for many prophecies. We discuss them in a separate essay.

robpacciani: did you read the predictions?? some are religious.. personally, if it ends suddenly, i reckon it will be by a natural disaster created by something involving the sun or the centre of the earth..


I think for thousands of years people have been predicting the worlds end.....Most of them religious things got to do with numbers as far as I can see.If you're not a religious person they are just stories really. I prefer to believe in science. Sun has a long long life...more time than we can comprehand really and as long as thats here so will the earth.
We will go extinct one day as all animails do eventually...Its just a matter of how......with over population war and famine look a good bet but thats thousands of years away.JMO
