Thanks for the posting..

Yes we can relate to these "happenings" and the end of the world is indeed nigh.

The scriptures, Bible, Torah and Quran mention these aspects. I am sure the hindus, Sikhs and Buddhists have similar.

They are meant to be "warnings" to us all to wake up and become better human beings.

One thing to remember is that "timelines" are relevant.

When we say, "these things point to the end of the world".. That end could still be millenia away.
