I've never thought there was a particular year, but throughout history the end of the world has been predicted (it's been described as the greatest piece of vapourware ever!).
Going through a few:
Around 50AD; One of the earliest predictions was in The Bible which predicted the second coming of Jesus before the death of the last apostle.
992AD A scholar prophesied (the prophet died before 992AD)
999AD (essentially a nice round number since Jesus's birth).
1033AD (999 years since Jesus's death).
1186AD Astrological prediction.
1260AD Another scholar prediction.
1524AD Flood and apocalypse predicted for sure.
1532AD Various signs seen; interpreted as the apocalypse real soon.
1533AD Based on Revelations, for sure this year...
1624AD Turned out the 1524 prediction was 100 years late. This time.
1704AD Cardinal predicted end.
1736AD World flood predicted.
1881AD Somehow interpreting the Great Pyramid gets to 1881.
1936AD Another great Pyramid prediction.
Special mention to Jehovah's Witnesses who predicted the end of the world in 1874, 1914 and 1975.
Scientist think the day the world is going to end is on December 21st, 2012
Some scientists believe that the world will keep crashing in on it's self and over a period of time a new world will then form and this will happen again and again, But if the world did end it would be in a long time, some people thought about 2 years ago it would be the end of the world when the scientists tested that tunnel i think it was but nothing happened
I don't think so. Many times in the past, groups of people have claimed the world will end on such a date - but we are still here! One day the world will eventually end, but not in my life time. I think I still have time to pay off my house mortgage!
It would be impossible to tell. I'm sure there are plenty of people that think 2012 will be the end.
Well to start of with the world will most likely not end soon it will probably end in 800 years or so but if the world was to end the only place you could survive would be in space you would have to get a rocket or shuttle an fly up to space.
No they do not think that the world will end any time soon,as the next time they have predicted the world to end is in at least 3-5 Billion Years.
i dont think the world would ever end
Scientist think the day the world is going to end is on December 21st, 2012
Many people would argue this question. i think not because the Mayans, many, many, many years ago the Mayans made a calender and predicted the day the would would end. i think there just needs to be a new calender made. Oh and by the way, people think the end of the world is December 12th, 2012.
No stop think about it
There is lots of rumors that it will end,but it has not on the speculated time as predictions think it will not end for at least another 3-5 billion years so I would not worry.
It is not true, and if you think that do you really want the world to end? It is going to hurt you more than it hurts the world
No The world will not end for at least another 3-5 Billion Years.
I do not know but I know that it will not end until at least billions of years will pass.
Mark's Gospel had Jesus prophesy the end of the world during the lifetime of the disciples then living. When this did not occur as foretold, the later gospels became more ambiguous about just when the expected end of the world would be. Over the centuries, even up to the twentieth century, there have been many claims that the world was about to end. I think the end is not near, and the world will continue for billions of years to come - long after I and my generation are dead.
i don't think that the world will end until billions of years into the future there is a very small chance that it will. so don't worry about it
It's not the end of the world, People have be saying it to scare other people.
