I quote wikipedia: Armageddon (Ancient Greek: Ἁρμαγεδών Harmagedōn, Arabic أرمجدون, Hebrew: הר מגידו har məgiddô, Late Latin: Armagedōn) is the site of an epic battle associated with the end time prophecies of the Abrahamic religions. According to some premillennial Christian interpretations, the Messiah, the "Lamb", Jesus Christ, will return to earth and defeat the Antichrist (the "beast") in the battle of Armageddon. Then Satan will be put into the bottomless pit or abyss for 1,000 years, known as the Millennial age. After being released from the abyss, Satan will gather Gog and Magog from the four corners of the earth. They will encamp surrounding the holy ones and the "beloved city". Fire will come down from God, out of heaven and devour Gog and Magog after the Millenium, and the Devil who deceived them is thrown into Gehenna (the lake of fire and brimstone) where the Beast and the False Prophet have been since just before the 1,000 years. The word Armageddon COMES FROM Christianity and the Rapture. | ||

The word Armageddon COMES FROM Christianity and the Rapture. That is all irrelevant. The word "rapture" refers only to the spiriting away of the faithful. What about that do you not understand?  | ||

Sorry if I'm not using precise Christian terminology. Normally, people refer to the rapture as both the rapture and the sequence of events that happen afterwards. Anyways, I don't see how this entire argument is even relevant, cause it all falls under "religious stuff," the original poll option. Nitpick at my jargon all you like. I don't see why you're arguing me on this. | ||

I don't agree. The Bible calls this day "Armageddon" - the end of all things. And yet, for the first time in the history of the planet, a species has the technology to prevent its own extinction. Everyone needs to know that everything that can be done to prevent this disaster will be called into service. The human thirst for excellence, knowledge; every step up the ladder of science; every adventurous reach into space; all of our combined modern technologies and imaginations; even the wars that we've fought have provided us the tools to wage this terrible battle. Through all of the chaos that is our history; through all of the wrongs and the discord; through all of the pain and suffering; through all of our times, there is one thing that has nourished our souls, and elevated our species above its origins, and that is our courage. | ||

but that said, if we would experience a doomsday i hope it will be because of a zombie apocalypse. slashing zombies in the last hours/days/years of my life would compesate pretty well for the loss of humanity imho. | ||
