The end of the world is a common theme in many religions, so it’s not surprising that people have been predicting the end of the world for centuries. However, most predictions are based on religious texts and interpretations of astronomical events. In fact, some scholars believe that these predictions may be due to misinterpretation of ancient texts or even outright lies.
