When is the real 'Doomsday?'?

In the scriptures, May 21 2011 marks the beginning of our judgment days, where as 'doomsday' is said to land on December 21, 2012. Since 2000, we've already been through 5 dates in which was supposed to be the end of the world;

1) January 1, 2000 (Millenium, where it was said all computers will reset, leaving us stranded without many of our resources.

2) January 1 2001 (Some believed the true Millenium was set for the year after since 0 is not a true number, thus making the world end at 2001)

3) September 11, 2001 (It was for told that the world will end on this day. Even though it didn't the world was hit greatly on the 9/11 attacks, thus ending the world for some.

4) June 6, 2006 (It was said to be our judgment day, where the devil/Lucifer would return to Earth and make it a new hell)

5) August 7, 2009 (It was called Infinite day, and it was for told that at 12:34:56 on 07/08/09, the world will end)

We also have 3 more events approaching with in the next year or so, that is said to be the end of the world. (May 21, 2001, December 12, 2012, and December 21, 2012).

My question is simple, do you think the world will end on one of the 3 dates approaching? Or do you feel the world will end in another form of a world wide calamity such as Global Warming? If so, then when is your prediction?

    Yeah, funny how there's all these calculations and predictions and dates, yet we're still here. Nobody is sure on when the world will end, it can happen at anytime though I'd ignore these dates. The dinosaurs extinction even was millions of years ago, and the last time yellowstone erupted was sometime about 650, 000 years ago. I wouldn't be suprised if Yellowstone erupted in the next few years, given the increase in seismic activity. And the December date is the end of the Mayan Calander, which is why people assume it will end as we know it. Then the guys at Hollywood turned that into a Blockbuster. Personally I wouldn't be surprised if we became extinct soon. It's bound to happen eventually. I'd rather it not be like The Walking Dead, or anything Zombie related, lol

    And I'd have to say either Charizard or Dragonite.

    The Bible specifically says that no one knows when the end will come. It also says there will be many false prophets.

    Some points:

    Matthew 24:36 However, no one knows the day or hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself. Only the Father knows.

    Mark 13:32 No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

    Acts 1:7 He said to them: "It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority.

    Matthew 24:33 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

    2 Peter 2:1 But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.

    2 Tim 4:3 For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.

    The world will not end in 2012 or may 21st 2011. i guess.

    The world will end because of ourselves, at the rate the population is rising and using up all the earths natural resources, don't expect that there will be a civilization in a thousand years. Anyway, the world will end in a few billion years, when the sun dies out T_T

    Doomsday was last Thursday. Don't tell me you missed it?!?!?

    Seriously, the world is most likely to end billions of years from now when the sun expands into a red giant and engulfs the earth. But if anyone believes it will end on any of those predicted dates in the next year or two, feel free to donate all your worldly possessions to me just before then so they won't go to waste.

    I feel that from all I have read and understood,5/21/2011 marks the beginning of judgement that is to come,and that the time has arrived for all to pay attention to what the Earth is now saying to us. As alot is being said,to those who know to listen.

    Doomsday will come the day you die if you are not serving God's purposes for your life. He created you with a plan and gave us His Word, the Bible, so that we may learn what is good and acceptable in His sight. God does respect our personal choices, but we still need the Bible to guide us into all truth and not be swaded into lies and sin which are abundant in the world. Want more info.? Visit your local church.
