### When Will the World End? A Closer Look at the Many Timers

Introduction

The question of when the world will end has captivated human imagination for centuries. While most predictions seem premature or outright fantastical, it’s fascinating to explore the myriad of dates and timelines that have been predicted over the years. From imminent collisions with asteroids to Mayan prophecies of doomsday, this blog post delves into several apocalyptic countdowns and evaluates their validity.

Various Countdowns and Predictions

#### International Messiah Foundation’s Prediction
According to the International Messiah Foundation, as stated in The Religion of God by Riaz Ahmed Gohar Shahi, the world is set to end in 2026 due to a massive asteroid collision. According to their timer, there are 77 months or 2355 days left as of the prediction date. Another prediction by the same foundation projected the end to be on September 9, 2239, with 6239 months or 187,171 days remaining at that date.

#### The Great Deluge of 2000 (Y2K)
One of the most widely known end-of-the-world predictions was tied to the turn of the millennium, 2000. This prediction, known as Y2K, was based on the way older computer systems abbreviated years with just two digits. The concern was that at midnight on December 31, 1999, systems might mistake the date 00 for 1900, leading to widespread computer malfunctions. Fortunately, this prediction failed to materialize.

#### Harold Camping’s Prophecy
Harold Camping, an American preacher, made a bold prediction in 2011 that the end of the world would occur on May 21, marking the return of Jesus Christ and the Last Judgment. Camping stated that only 3% of the world’s population, the righteous, would be saved, while the remaining 6.5 billion people would vanish. Despite the theological implications, the prediction, along with its follow-up on October 21, 2011, was spectacularly incorrect.

#### Modern Predictions and Timers
Countdowns for the end of the world can be found almost anywhere on the internet, each with its own unique timeframe. Websites like Wow! Timer and How Many Days Until offer countdowns for a variety of apocalyptic events. These include the predicted end of the world on September 21, 2028, which is not confirmed but gives an example of the various dates predicted.

#### The Extinction Clock
For a more grounded perspective, the Extinction Clock website provides a countdown to how much time we have left to take action on climate change before we exceed the 1.5°C warming threshold, seen as a critical point by many climatologists. The Extinction Clock runs two timers: one for our ‘carbon budget’ (time left to ensure we stay under 1.5°C global warming) and another for the increasing use of renewable energy sources.

What Do Scientists Predict?

Scientifically, the end of the world as we know it is a considerably more distant event. According to various studies, our planet Earth’s ultimate fate is tied to the cycle of our Sun. The Sun will eventually become a red giant, swallowing the inner solar system in about 7.59 billion years. Long before that, Earth’s surface would become uninhabitable, with the exact timeline depending on a variety of factors, such as the production of volcanic gases and changes in orbit.

Conclusion

The notion of the world coming to an end is as entertaining as it is speculative. From the International Messiah Foundation’s asteroid collision to Harold Camping’s May 2011 prophecy, there have been countless predictions that have since been disproven. The Extinction Clock, however, offers a real-world countdown, calling for immediate action to mitigate climate change. Whether the world ends in the next few decades or billions of years from now, the planet’s sustainability is a critical issue we must address now.
