Ancient Mayans made the news quite a bit last year. People were concerned that life on earth was going to stop. They felt since the Mayan calendar ended last December, then just about everything else was going to come to a halt. The end of the world has been talked about for a very long time and appears in countless science fiction novels as the main story line. These events have obviously never occurred, but there are many who feel that it is just a matter of time. Sooner or later, they say, we may have to learn to survive in a post apocalyptic world.
The apocalypse was discussed in the Bible. John mentions in grisly detail of people living in horror as they awaited their judgement. No one was instructed when this event will transpire. Lots of people have been seeking signs connected with the world ending since those days.
Many stories have been written over the years describing how the author feels will happen. These are generally works of fiction. There has been so many books produced that the topic is considered a sub genre in the science fiction. These literary works often tell of disasters that await mankind if they do not change their ways.
Unlike the story by John in Revelations where God returns to earth to cast sinners into the hot fires of hell. The other stories give many reasons for the demise of the world. A favorite method of destruction authors liked to write about during the second half of the twentieth century has been nuclear holocausts.
A well known works associated with fiction was the War of the Worlds written by H. G. Wells. An actor named Orson Welles narrated this story over the radio during 1938. This caused a significant amount of panic since radio listeners since they believed that Martians had attacked the earth. There had been multiple reports in newspapers of individuals fleeing their residences and towns to avoid the aliens.
Government officials were not pleased with what was happening on the streets. They sent law enforcement over to CBS to halt the broadcast. Arriving after the story was finished, the authorities grabbed the scripts the actor utilized in an attempt to of avoid anyone reproducing the broadcast. Some people decided to sue CBS simply because they felt so much anguish thinking they were about to be killed by Martians.
The broadcast was repeated many years later by many radio stations. However, during these other times people were well informed that the airing was simply them remaking the classic 1938 telling. Some stations did this on Halloween for a few years.
Many listeners like to be told scary stories. One the favorite subjects has become stories that concern the end of world and precisely how life is going to be after nearly everything is ruined. Time will probably tell if anyone will be right about what will occur. Until finally then, people will simply have to wonder how earth will probably end and what will happen to those who are living when this events unfold.
