Nope. Basic stochastic theory says that if you've been waiting X amount of time for an event, and the only info you have is the time waited so far, the optimal estimator for the amount of time remaining is equal to the time waited so far.

People thought the apocalypse had come in 999, they thought so again in 1666, and again in 1999 among other many many other years of predicted apocalypses. My best guess is we'll be waiting about 2000 more years.

[b]Update:[/b] I admit, it's not a terribly useful estimator. Optimal doesn't always mean good; sometimes it means least bad.

I think it is significant that Israel controls the Holy Temple.

It's a new beginning, humanity needs to nurture the fields and weed out the intruders, is all an apocalypse is.

2021 marks the 2,021st year that was supposed to be the start of the end times. Next year will be the 2,022nd. 🤷‍♂️

Nope. I do have fears for America as a free republic as I see on the news some GOP governors have vowed to refuse to certify ANY Democratic win in an election and insert their own people in place of the elected officials.

No, because I don't believe in such things.

What I [i]do[/i] believe is that the world is becoming ever more unstable and uncertain; but in very real, human affairs, not ones excuseable by superstition.

There’s a lot of people in this world who have no doubt about stuff with no evidence. That’s the power of faith I suppose. I just hope faith doesn’t lead people to commit atrocities, as history has shown it can.

No.. This is just another empire imploding slowly. Between people and the collapse of Money, and the climate debacle thats going to happen there will be enough people left to try again.😷

Lol no

So, what are you going to do about it?

Just clean your room and stop whining

No. That's nonsense. We're facing the end of the US empire, the collapse of capitalism and global warming.

Idk, but we’ve entered something..and it isn’t good!

Tribulation leading to apocalypse.

Yes i do..

If the world is still in the same state in 20 years time i will be very surprised.. I am personaly looking towards the year 2030 for a lot of things to happen by..

Anyway we do not even know if we will still be alive tomorrow so irrespective of the near future be sure you are in the right place with the LORD Jesus and all will be well.

The US was saved from extinction when Trump was booted out, but that might go back to doomsday again if he gets back in.

No, I do not. Life will go on; we are not as unique as we think we are.

We do have the pestilence in spades

I hope. I'm looking forward to the Eldritch horrors.

we certainly live in 'funny' times.

No one knows but it seems like we are.

Better put on clean underwear then.

Absolutely same

Wiffowt a dowt

No.

no

No idea but if one thing hasn't changed it is the powerful leading people to believe the end is nigh.

Here we go again 🙄

We were always living in the End Times since the beginning of the fall.

What makes you believe that?

Pompeii definitely springs to mind.

No.

No, I don't believe we are in a non-existent time from a fantasy novel.
