Warning...my interpretation of the Biblical view to follow
I have no idea when it will end but I will tell you the date that I absolutely think it will NOT end...
December 23... LOL
I believe the Bible when it says that no man will know. Therefore, I feel safe in saying it will NOT be December 23, 2012.
I have no idea when it will end nor really care. I certainly don't plan to worry or stress over it. I am a Christian and I believe God is in control plus I have made reservations already for what is to follow.
Life itself is too uncertain to worry about a date in the future. There will probably be some of us reading and posting on the board right now who will die before that date. Therefore our participation in the world will have already come to an end. I am much more concerned about drunk drivers and the like who may end innocent people's lives than I am a prediction about the end of the world. However, I will agree that many Biblical signs and prophecies of the end of time are being fulfilled currently. That causes me more pause than the Mayan's calendar.
I realize that some of you may not share the religious view I just expressed but I am not ashamed nor apologetic for my beliefs. I also would not force mine upon you without warning.
Regardless of your religious beliefs, I think life should be lived as if each day is your last. If we do that we will leave no words unsaid that should have been spoken to those we love, etc.
