We're not sure if or when it will happen, but we've a good idea what the consequ
ences will be. A giant wave will sweep across the Atlantic at the speed of a jet
airliner and a mighty wall of water 50 metres high will hit the coast of North
America, surging up to 20 kilometres inland and engulfing everything in its path
. Simon Day of the Benfield Greig Hazard Research Centre at University College L
ondon has discovered that a huge chunk of the volcano Cumbre Vieja, which forms
the southern part of La Palma, one of the Canary Islands, is unstable. Day predi
cts that if half a trillion tonnes of rock slides into the ocean it will create
a tsunami wave far larger than any seen in history. The good news is that Cumbre
Vieja will not collapse spontaneously. It would take an eruption to increase th
e likelihood of this happening. The bad news is that once every few decades, the
volcano erupts...
17. New Species Take Over - Not aliens but perhaps beings that live underground
might be preparing to wage war and take back there planet or the planet. If a ra
ce has high technology they can do almost anything invade, take, enslave or kill
us.
A chimera originally the fabulous Greek mythological creature with a lion s head, a go
at s body, and a serpent s tail has come to mean any hybrid of two or more creatures.
Nowadays the use of genetic engineering raises a number of concerns. By far, the
greatest public concern is over the mixing of human and animal genes. After all
, both cell fusion and recombinant DNA techniques allow species barriers to be r
eadily overcome.
Human beings are changing the world at an ever-increasing pace. New crops appear
almost every day. It is certain that we will be using genetic manipulation to c
hange life forms themselves in the coming decades. Of course, we should be more
alarmed about manipulation of animals than of vegetation and microorganisms.
There is a threshold of cross-species research that must never be stepped over,
lest we walk into a minefield. We must not create situations where humans make l
ife or death decisions without reference to God. We must be cautious not to crea
te interspecies chimeras that would be able to replace or destroy Homo sapiens.
18. Time Travel - If we were to learn the ability of time travel which has been
done only a few cases but if one thing were changed we say this could cause mank
ind to be wiped off. Such as lets say Joe goes back in time to kill a scientist
that has the cure for a disease. So the scientist dies which is a setback to fin
ding the cure by then its to late many die and therefore you or I do not exist.
19. Gas Explosions - Under the earths crust there is gas the pressure builds up
and it could ignite possibly and if lets say all if it ignited at once earth wou
ld be a ball of fire. Its believed the incident in Russia with Tesla that this i
s what occurred some said it was a meteor impact others say there are signs that
the explosion seemed to come from the ground and up.
20. Evil Rayne's On Earth - There are demons good versus evil what if evil won w
hat if demons were unleashed on earth, great evils do you think they would let u
s live and be merry? The earth could plunge into darkness anytime if the balance
of good is off.
21. Mega Nova - Lets say a star explodes close by for what reason perhaps its ab
out to super nova what would be the effects here on earth. Would it block out th
e suns rays, destroy our atmosphere, etc?
There is no work in all literature that has been more misunderstood, prostituted
, exploited and abused than the Bible's final book, titled simply in the Greek,
"Apocalypse of John." The phenomenon is evidenced daily in the quite incredible
fascination of our culture just now with "end times" and apocalyptic scenarios o
f every kind.
A recent Time Magazine/CNN poll found that 59 per cent of Americans actually bel
ieve the "end-of-the-world prophecies" in the Book of Revelation will come true.
About 25 per cent believe the attacks of Sept.11, 2001, were predicted in the B
ible. About 17 per cent believe the world will "end" in their lifetime.
