I think there's a fair-to-middling chance it could be EXACTLY because of one of those.

I agree, but not because they are real, but because far too many people with power, with their hand on the button, worldwide, do think they're fictional heros do have an influence on humans.
The world will not end by human hands because of fictional heros. It can end if those who buy those claims in power say, "If I cant have you nobody can" and base it on those fictional heros.
When the theist says, "The world will end". That part is true, it will, but not because any holy writing in human history has a patent on morality or is predictive.. If we die as a species by our own hands, it will be tragic, mundane, needless but still not caused by anything divine or super natural.

If you want to blame peoples beliefs/ anti-beliefs in God as a reason then the impetus is on the individual.
Um no sorry. This is the same claimed character whom in the claimed mythology of the Egyptians took his anger out on boys, instead of taking it out only on the adult king alone, according to the story. Please tell me what a kid could possibly do at such a young age to deserve death because of something the parent did? Same with the flood mythology. The flood never happened, but just based on the "you did bad and you will pay" motif of God's wrath, it would still be implied that kids of non Christians, babies of non Christians, and all humans outside of the Noah clan on that boat, drowned. Genocide is not a moral argument. Harming someone just because you can, is nothing short of "might makes right".
Same stupid argument with natural disasters even today. This claimed deity loves his loyalists, but even where there are a high concentration of fervent followers whom go to church every Sunday, even multiple times a week, even those people have their homes destroyed, their holy houses of worship destroyed and even lost lives, even if they have no criminal record. Seems pretty shitty to to me to treat someone you say you love and is not a bad person like that.
Why such crappy aim?
