THE END OF THE WORLD
What Will Happen, Why it Will Happen, & How to Make the Best of It!
By Brian Norris, ©2011
So, you want to know when the world will end and how it's going to end?
Well, to begin with, it's already happening.
Since the beginning of the 21st Century we've begun to experience the swift acceleration of factors leading to the End of the World as we know it.
At this point, NOTHING you do or don't do can change the inevitable. The era of humankind's dominance is coming to an end. In the next few years, we have a lot on our plates.
Even if there were no asteroids, or earthquakes or plagues or terrorist attacks to worry about, the very thing that enabled our population to grow so quickly is the same thing that will bring that growth to a screeching halt.
Oil.
Specifically, IF we somehow manage to avoid killing ourselves and blowing up the whole planet along with us, the accelerating depletion of oil over the next decade will completely change how you live, where you live, what you do for a living, how you eat, what you do for health care, how you travel, how you dress, and how you survive day to day.
All it takes is a 15% decrease in the world wide supply of oil to end life as we know it. When people and nations can't access the amount of oil, gas and petroleum derived products they need, all Hell breaks loose.
You have local riots. You have regional turf wars and violent attempts to seize oil refineries, gas trucks and all sources of alternative energy. You have full scale wars, invasions, occupations, coups and government overthrow as nations fight one another for access to dwindling supplies of oil.
You and I are just an inconvenience. It's all about the oil. If you want to reduce your dependence on oil, I suggest that you:
1. Learn How to Make Your Own Fuel!
2. Get off the Grid. Learn to use solar power & wind power so you can take of yourself and your family when oil disappears or becomes impossible to purchase.
What are the other ways that the World will End?
I don't know what order these events will happen, but the following events and development will MOST LIKELY usher in the end of the world or at the minimum, the end of life as we know it:
Nuclear and biological warfare
Arguably, every sovereign nation has a right to protect itself and to have access to the same weapons owned by their neighboring countries. This right is also the signature of the coming nuclear assault.
Who will fire first (or when) is up for debate. There are too many candidates, and too many groups who believe that the nuclear option is the ultimate strategy to demonstrate independence or to usher the return (or first appearance) of their savior, messiah or prophet.
Even Christ is believed to have said, "Perhaps men think that I am come to cast peace upon the world, and know not that I am come to cast divisions upon the earth, fire, sword, war. For there shall be five in a house; there shall be three against two, and two against three, the father against the son and the son against the father, and they shall stand as solitaries."
More explicitly Christ predicted that just as the earth was covered in water (in Noah's time) it must also be consumed in fire.
Fire (maybe a meteor, but more likely a nuclear war) will wipe away millions, if not BILLIONS of people and species from the earth. Our 5,000 years of human dominance in the ecosystem is barely a hiccup in the big timeline of the universe.
The Zionist/Crusader/Jihadist/Darwinist Wars
History has shown us that extreme beliefs facilitate extreme outcomes. The world is populated by millions and millions of people who believe in a god who:
- Takes sides
- Gives favor to populations that dress or pray a certain way
- Mandates specific formalized religious rituals
- And murders his own creation.
Because of this deeply rooted set of beliefs, you can expect that extremists within the largest organized faiths, including the Darwinists, will attempt to kill each other and anyone who happens to be in their target’s general vicinity:
- Many Christians expecting Christ to physically return. They are going to great lengths to force him to come back ahead of schedule.
- Many Jews anticipating acharit hayamim. They seek a direct descendent of King David to be their Messiah. We see now an effort by coalitions of Jews and Christians to fulfill prophecy by helping all Jews to return to the Land of Israel.
-
Certain groups of Muslims are attempting to create adequate chaos to usher the reappearance of the Al Mahdi. They also believe that Esa, (Jesus) will return too, helping lay the final stones that lead to the end of the world. They are taught that Jesus will kill Dajjal (the Anti-Christ) at the gate of Ludd.
-
Under the guise of science, some Atheists or Darwinists are trying to use the legal system to advance their own patents, agendas, conclusions and theories. They want to keep faith out the equation altogether and teach that something only exists IF science can measure it. New experiments in genetic cloning, test tube viruses, eugenics, seed patenting and the quest for profits create a unfavorable climate of greed and questionable safety.
Water Wars
The lack of clean, drinkable water will wipe out millions from the planet. Many will die from lack of water. Many will die defending their scarce supplies.
Others will die from the poisoned water supply (thanks to religious extremists, companies polluting or dumping and malfunctioning or old equipment that fails to keep the toxins contained).
Bird Flu, H1HN (and their descendants)
It's only a matter of time before viral strains like Bird Flu or H1N1 mutate so that they can be transferred human to human. All the stockpiles of Tamiflu will be useless and the virus continues to mutate and strengthen, spawning multiple super-strains that spread globally, wiping out huge percentages of the population.
It will not discriminate by age, race or gender. One day you will cough and the next day you will simply drop dead. A lucky few will have innate genetic resistance to the virus.
Massive temperature changes and extreme weather
We already see this. While our consumption habits have accelerated the climate changes, much of the increases in severe weather stems from a bigger planetary pattern, of which the human race is but a footnote.
Many people believe that the environment will be destroyed or melt away. This is a false teaching. It is people who will melt away in the wake of the storms and nuclear winds.
While the environment adapts and reemerges from the atrocities that besiege the planet, Humans have a harder time adapting, recovering and continuing. So we’re the ones in danger of extinction!
Will the "End of the World" lead to the end of humanity?
Between unprecedented storms, floods, earthquakes, droughts, hurricanes, tsunamis, cancer and disease, genocide, murders, suicides and starvation entire pockets of humanity will lose their will to rebuild and disappear.
Initially the devastation will be horrible. The dead will outnumber those who survive.
Billions dead. Millions more will be stripped of hope, of compassion, of a desire to believe in anyone or anything. This is the closest we'll get to real life zombies!
And they'll want to drink!!
In the coming end of the world, the best business to have will be a Homebrewing business. If you can make alcohol, beer and wine, you'll be very wealthy (or at least have lots of items taken as barter)!
Here's are some great resources that will teach you step-by-step how to learn how to make your own wine and beer:
Here is how to make your own wine.
Here's a do-it-yourself beer making guide.
And smoke!
I don't smoke. I don't like how it makes the skin and clothing smell. And I hate the thought of kissing a person who smells like an ashtray.
BUT...
When the end of the world comes, we'll have lots more to worry about than the dangers of cigarettes and 2nd hand smoking.
So, if you know how to grow and roll your own tobacco (or tobacco-related products) you could be making a fortune when the end of the world comes and the stores sell out of cigarettes.
Here is how to grow and roll your own tobacco!
They'll also need Candles and Soap!
When the supermarket shelves are empty. People with candle making and soap making skills will be in high demand. These are great skills to learn for both survival and economic reasons.
Learning how to make necessities such as candles and soap is a smart idea if you are thinking about ways to make money in the end time.
At the minimum, you should know how to make your own soap and candles so that you don't have to go searching for them when the end of the world comes. Besides being a part-time soap and candle maker will keep you busy and out of trouble!

The aftermath
In time, as the radiation levels diminish and the looters are shot (the only law for many years will be the law of the gun) survivors will adapt to the new environment and begin to rebuild.
A New Order...
The people who remain will naturally seek the leadership of men and women capable of piecing together the fractured interests of thousands of freshly formed tribes, factions and militias.
So what now? How to make the best of it...
1. Get over your anxiety, fear and depression. Yield to every opportunity presented to live your life to the fullest, without regret. I do mean EVERY!
If you are going to die anyway or have to learn to live a life devoid of many of the comforts you are currently accustomed to then you should make the most of the special opportunities that come your way.
2. Love like you've never loved before. That means loving others and yourself with passion, respect and empathy. Let people know that you love them in words, and more importantly, in action.
3. Create clear rules for what you put into your (and your children's) body. Now is NOT the time to get sick or wobble through life in a haze of drunkedness, overmedication, a sugar or caffeine stupor. You need to be clear and your body needs to be strong. Keep anything you create or grow via your pre or post apocalyptic businesses out of your own body.
You may also want to minimize or altogether eliminate the following from your diet:
excessive amounts of refined white sugar (weaken your immune system and make you fat)
artificial sweeteners (mess you up mentally and negatively affect your endocrine system)
white flour (too many carbohydrates is unhealthy)
most shellfish (mercury levels,lots of unhealthy stuff shellfish ingest that we shouldn't)
milk (the jury is out on what those hormones commonly found in milk do to us long-term, lactose intolerance affects lots of people, and too many carbs can lead to obesity)
high fructose corn syrup (promotes weight gain and spikes triglyceride levels)
and foods treated with chemicals, hormones or pesticides (messes with your hormone levels, cause cancer, and cloud your thought process).
Again, if in the unlikely chance you do survive the various apocalypses described above, you'll need to be mentally and physically strong.
All the stuff I mentioned above can kill or weaken you prematurely. Only the strongest will live to see another day.
You want to be the clearest thinker, the fastest runner (or at least the fastest amongst your peers), the best aim and the most enlightened.
4. Do whatever it takes to protect your family, your friends and yourself. For that reason, learn the essentials of self-defense to defend yourself in the event of an attack.
Get a gun just in case your kind words and positive actions don't produce the desired outcome. Have cash on hand at all times since credit cards will have no use in the years ahead.
Form a community watch group and pool resources (food, shelter, communication, non-car transportation).
In the end of the world as we know it, you'll need a tribe, a real network of people you can count on to defend one another, get things done, make things, and provide moral support on a regular basis.
5. Have the bare essentials for end of the world survival so that you can leave your home fast if necessary.
6. Cleanse your body of toxins. Or, fast (refrain from eating or drinking) when you feel the weight of the world is on your shoulders or your feel tempted by an addiction. Use this time to go to a quiet, private place and chill.
7. Take the steps now to keep your addictions from getting the best of you! Remember that the fastest way to resist addiction is to remove the things that allow it to blossom.
Take yourself out of the environments or situations that make it easy to give in to those addictions. If you have want help with specific addictions, then try these resources:
8. Make love often. Enter into a devoted relationship with a person you love and trust deeply and find every opportunity to share your whole being with.
When two people connect intimately and consensually it creates a conduit and provides a few powerful moments to experience bliss. Do whatever you can to keep it interesting and fun.
Be there for each other afterwards too. Respect and cherish one another, even when you're ticked off.
When the end comes, I know I want to be making love with my wife and I intend to have everything I need to make those final moments beautiful, sensual, loving and primal.
9. Finally, remember that the end of the world arrives for someone every second. Regardless of your status, your education, your outlook, your faith, your genetic makeup, or anything else, the physical end is inevitable.
Instead of obsessing over the when, obsess over the how. How are you living your life to the fullest while you still can? Are you exercising your options to live fully and extremely, with passion and purpose?
You control what you do and how you conduct yourself in all matters before that personal End of the World comes to pass.
