Now what exactly that world ending event is, varies, depending on who you ask.

- some foresee a total breakdown of government and of armed rebellion.
- some foresee a complete economic collapse
- some think the rapture is coming
- others believe in the Mayan calender

I'm sure there's other theories to add to that list, but that's just a few of the ideas im aware of through hearing or reading. I have to add that I have one family member who seems to be stocking up for some sort of armageddon. Stocking up on arms, ammo, and If im not mistaken on provisions as well.

The running joke in the family is we'll all go to his house during the apocolypse because he's sitting on a personal armory and thousands of rounds of ammunition. Anyway, some peoples seem to believe that sort of an "end" is coming, and other's are capitalizing on that as an opportunity. The bunkers in question here, i recall seeing some documentary or news clipping about before.

Personally, i think our "end" will come as an economic collapse. Not anytime soon, but sometime in my lifetime when the oil well's to dry up and the prices for just about everything (including food) start soaring sky high. My thought is i'll be in my 60's or maybe 70's when this happens and possibly too frail to survive.

/end tin foil hat.

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
Matthew 6, 34

Jeez, what's with all those bible quotes suddenly? Did the jehova witnesses trace you down and convert you or something?

My experience with Jehovah's witnesses they don't quote the bible they just call your gods pretend.
