Pretty much. Humanity seems to be obsessed with the end of civilisation and has been for hundreds of years...
@Quizzical I thought it would be thousands of years

@MushroomFaerie Most likely. I was just hedging my bets with hundreds, lol
@Quizzical yeah I guess we dont know, we weren't there, I tried to find it on Google but all it came up with was stuff about menstrual cycles 🤷‍♀️ so I came here lol

@MushroomFaerie I expect the term 'period' had something to do with that 😂
@Quizzical that is correct lol but what else do I say? 'Time frame' it's not really the right words and I'd probably get just get picture frames for sale or something lol

@MushroomFaerie You could always try searching using the term Apocalypticism 🤔
@Quizzical oh cool, I didn't know that was a word. 'Apocalypticism.....through human history...?' Yeah that might do it

@MushroomFaerie I think it does tend towards a religious point of view, but it might point you in the right direction xx
@Quizzical oh yeah definately lol, I hope it's not just christianity, I want it all like back 6,000 years. I bet even cavemen had those beliefs, it's probably part of the human condition

@MushroomFaerie I think you're right. There are certainly a lot of myths and legends about the subject in other cultures.
@Quizzical I never saw apocolypto...I assume it's about that back in the days

@MushroomFaerie Well, I am led to believe that one of the South American peoples (Mayans or Aztecs etc) believed that we are currently on our 4th or 5th world with the previous ones having been destroyed by the gods. I'll try and find a link to a Youtube channel for you xx
@Quizzical ah yes, I've heard that it doesnt mean we are gonna die though, just moving into a new something something 🤷‍♀️

@MushroomFaerie This channel is pretty good. It has a combination of history and myths/legends, and I believe a couple of the videos discuss this subject 🤗
