Not so long ago, most people in the West thought the world would end on Judgement Day after the dead rose from their graves and joined Jesus on a journey into heaven.
Now, of course, that seems unlikely because we are absolutely sure doomsday will come when climate change melts the ice caps and rising seas swallow our civilization.
And if that doesn’t happen, a killer computer will wipe us off the planet – as long as we manage to survive the inevitable nuclear war, alien invasion or global pandemic.
Of course, we don’t know whether any of these disasters will come to pass because we’re not much closer to accurately predicting the end of all things than we were in the days when early Christians penned the apocalyptic Book of Revelation.
