Predictions of the end of the world
The theme of the end of the world, perhaps, is one of the most popular in any religion. Indeed, this issue has worried people for many centuries - good, there are more than enough reasons for concern. Indeed, not only the Bible and other religious books say about the Apocalypse - this is a favorite subject of many predictors and scientists. What are the most popular predictions about the end of the world?
Mayan predictions about the end of the world
According to the Mayan calendar, humanity at this stage experiences the Fifth Age of Creation, in other words - the Fifth Sun. The Maya priests asserted that each such cycle( the Sun) ended in a cataclysm( earthquake, hurricane, fiery rain and flood, respectively), as a result of which a small number of people remained alive, thanks to which legends about what happened happened from generation to generation.
The fifth Sun should end 5126 years after its inception, i.e. December 21, 2012, "losing" to the next cycle. It is these Mayan predictions about the end of the world and have done so much fuss about the theme of the end of the world in 2012, alarming many people around the world.
Variants of the outcome of the Fifth Sun appear the more, the closer the date of the alleged cataclysm. The most popular version is the collision of the Earth with another planet or an asteroid. Also according to the calculations of astronomers, it is on December 21.12.12 on the day of the winter solstice that the Sun will cross the plane of the Milky Way - but nobody knows what can follow this.
Isaac Newton's predictions about the end of the world
It turns out that the great scientist devoted part of his time to the exact calculation of the date of the end of the world, using for this the Book of the Prophet Daniel. In the manuscripts of 1700 Newton predicts the Apocalypse in 2060, predicting the fall of many "wicked" countries and the prosperity of the Jewish nation.
Nostradamus predicts the end of the world
Nostradamus himself, unknowingly, in his end-of-the-world predictions was more merciful to the humanity of the 21st century, having computed the Apocalypse in 3797 - this date is the last in his predictions. According to Nostradamus, the Earth's axis will change its position in space.
However, for the sake of justice it is worth noting that Nostradamus had several versions about the end of the world, one of which did not materialize - the great predictor promised the Apocalypse in 1999.
Vanga's predictions about the end of the world
Baptized Apocalypse and the blind clairvoyant Vanga. She, however, never called exact dates, sending for details to the Bible - and there, as you know, there is also no word about specific dates.
Vanga predicts a war between all nations, which will end with a complete fall of civilization. After this, there will always be peace and grace, which will last exactly one thousand years.
In general, if we consider all the existing predictions about the end of the world in aggregate, it turns out that humanity for the next 20 years expect different kinds of cataclysms. Here, and already mentioned asteroids, and the Third World War, and the violation of cosmic cycles, and cosmic dust sweeping away everything in its path, and the deluge, and nuclear war. It unites all predictions one: the theme of irresponsible attitude of mankind to its existence on Earth passes through them.
Whether to take it all to heart and prepare for the end of the world, do self-improvement in the hope of salvation during the Apocalypse or simply ignore all the predictions about the end of the world - choose you.
