People who believe in religions , like me, have a reason to believe that the world will end one day, apparently because their religious scriptures tell them so but why would some people all of a sudden claim that the world will end on a certain date or time? Why would someone commit suicide in order to avoid the end of the world? Why would someone give all of his money to charity only to discover that the world wont end now? Every now and then some people start to claim that the world will end on a certain date then attract a large number of supporters who start doing all kind of extreme behavior just because of believing that end is near. Yesterday i came across a site that said that the world is going to end in 8 days. The site was a commercial one and it was Selling survival kits, rations and all kinds of goods that a person might need when the world ends! The first question that came to my mind was, what on earth is the site owner going to do with the money if the world was really going to end according to his beliefs ? Friends please give your opinions...

Exactly, No one knows when it is going to come. But we all agree it is going to come to an end someday for sure. The better question is what will happen after that day? Non religious groups doesn't have any answer for this question. And you remind me of Mr rao. smiley

Libra: None religious gruops maybe don't want to debate with someone whose entire knowledge about the Universe fits into one book written by some goat herders living in the desert and sleeping in tents believing in flying horses and talking pens and that the stars are Satan's missiles and being so confrontational about it as of it's the ultimate truth.
that's called faith. unfortunately you have no faith, neither on others nor on your own self. p.s: i could have replied you with much elaboration, but i know its of no use, and i am famn sleepy.smiley bbl
