If I Were To End The World


Last July 13 and 18, 2011 our group reported about a short story entitled, "The Nine Billion Names Of God" by Arthur C. Clarke,


and a movie entitled "2012".


Our theme for the report was "The Apocalypse." The apocalypse basically means how the world will end. The assignment was to make a blog on how we want the world to end/how would we want to end it & to answer this question: 
What are the current problems (globally) that can cause the end/destruction of the world/ apocalypse? Explain.

If I were to end the world, I'd just choose to end it without pain and suffering. I don't want to see people trying to survive and panicking. It's terrible to look at, as well as horrifying and irritating. Imagine people running around, bumping into you, pushing you, yelling straight into your ears. NO WAY I'd want that. So If I were to end the world, I would do it by rapture. According to http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/rapture, the rapture is defined as the act of transporting a person from one sphere of existence to another, esp from Earth to Heaven.


Rapture:


According to the Bible's interpretation on the rapture, people would not be aware on when the world would end. It would just happen in a flash/in a blink of an eye. People who believe Him would be taken up to Heaven -- leaving EVERYTHING (clothes, cars, money, family members, etc.) behind. I want this kind of "ending-the-world-process" because it isn't painful and you won't hardly feel and notice it.

QuestionWhat are the current problems (globally) that can cause the end/destruction of the world/ apocalypse? Explain.

Answer: I think the current problem that would end our world is Global Warming.



According to http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/global+warming, Global Warming is defined as an increase in the Earth's average atmospheric temperature that causes corresponding changes in climate and that may result from the greenhouse effect. Because of global warming, we are experiencing the rising temperature of the heat from the sun causing the melting of ice in some areas of the world, which would eventually bring about flood, fire, and destruction on Earth.
