It's easy to not worry about religious "prophecies." Whenever they've set a specific date, especially for the end of the world, it's always been wrong. Others who are wise enough to not set a specific date always say, "very soon," but they've been saying this for 2000 years.

And if you want to get into failed prophecy, Jesus claimed many times that he would return and the end of the world would occur during the lifetimes of those around him but apparently that never happened.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
