The Ends of the World: Volcanic Apocalypses, Lethal Oceans and Our Quest to Understand Earth’s Past Mass Extinctions

Product Information

Revealing . . . Effectively link[s] past and present, [while] wind[ing] down with projections for the future and a warning against inaction in the face of climate change.”— Publishers Weekly The Ends of the World recounts the breath-taking stories of the five mass extinctions that have punctuated the course of evolution. Its vertiginous sense of the fragility of living things will never leave you, not least because humanity may now be writing the end of Brannen’s riveting tale. Stephen Curry made? Now if Christians are unthankful, then what are those outside the faith like? We certainly live in a time of ungreatfulness. Spare a thought Wim Wenders’ 1991 Until the end of the world shares quite a few themes with Deborah Danowski’s and Eduardo Viveiros de Castro’s The Ends of the World. The film opens with a shot of the planet taken from the orbit. The year is 1999, when, we are told, the world was expected to end, due to a predicted explosion caused by an out-of-control Indian satellite. The main protagonist, Claire, is troubled by an altogether different matter: a dream in which she is gliding in an airplane above the Australian desert – pleasantly at first, but then the plane begins to lose altitude, eventually colliding with the red, dusty ground – into which the eye of the camera folds at the end of the opening sequence.

Talk about the end times and the majority of people, including many Christians will just laugh it off saying that "all things continue as they were I did not like the author's writing style. Good stuff can be found at the paragraph level, but the author did not deliver any chapter that flowed well from start to finish. Mostly the book made me wonder about the joy of ignorance. Is humanity better off because we know the probabilities and are aware that we are heading on a crash course to environmental destruction or were the sea dwellers of the Ordovician better off not knowing what was coming right up until the moment that their lights were extinguished? This, of course is a philosophical (rather than a scientific) question and one that is likely to vary by the person. Of course if we were politically united enough and (as a species) generous enough to care more about HUMANITY than our "in group" vs the other "out group" in the all out fight for resources, this knowledge might allow us to make changes and prepare or stave off, but I don't have enough confidence in my fellow humans to think the knowledge is going to do us much good...unless we figure out a way to engineer our way out of it. The second half of the seven-year Tribulation is characterised as 'great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be'.

I suppose there's some comfort here in the macro view--that life has been near-extinguished again and again, that species die but new species emerge, that humans are really just a cosmic fluke rather than the centre of the world, that sod it, we're about to go into another ice age anyway. Maybe. In the 'but what is the world going to look like in 2050' view, it's really not comforting at all. Now this is an end time sign pointing purely to Christians. And is it fulfilled in our day? Yes. The Christian churches are

The Apocalypse – the end of the world - Salvation in - BBC

Brannen's Ends of the World takes on the heady subject of Earth's mass extinctions - the epochs, the rise and fall, the animals and fossils, the shifts of plates and climates, and the rise of atmospheric carbon dioxide and ocean acidification... Both as it happened millions of years ago and how it is happening now in the Anthropocene. He chronologically traces through millions of years of history. I've read similar books (Elizabeth Kolbert's The Sixth Extinction comes to mind), but Brannen takes a somewhat lighter tone on it, while still pressing the gravity of what we face now with climate change and ocean acidification.

Also, think about how many women are coveted and lusted after everyday, because of the tight, revealing clothing they wear these days. And Take a look at 2 Timothy 3 above again. EVERY sign that is given in those verses are specifically pointing to our day today. These are the You've got to get away from the single-factor explainations.

The End Of The World Nostradamus 2024: Civil War, Bloodshed, And The End Of The World

The three central chapters – ‘The outside without thought, or the death of the Other’, ‘Alone at last’, and ‘A World of people’ – present perspectives on the end of the world beyond the Western-centric, modernist view, to include those for whom the world has already ended, for instance, by the virtue of colonial exploitation. Their sense of finality – and, by extension, their sense of the world – is quite different. In this sense, the book pits Latour’s ‘moderns’ (Humans) against non-moderns/Others (Terrans) in a (not-quite-hypothetical) conflict. This conflict is no longer (or primarily) over resources, nor even about the reality of global warming: the Gaia war, authors argue, has virtually become a war of the worlds, the one that would decide the fate of the planet and its future.that God has entrusted them with on THEMSELVES, rather than using it to help the poor and further God's kingdom.
