The planet won't end, if there is a huge natural disaster or an epic nuclear war, we will come to an end, not the planet. Plus, with us out of the way the planet will heal itself and continue without us.
Why do they keep harping on about the end?
It seems the religious who's only real interest is to kill themselves. Don't like this reality so they convince themselves there's another one that's better in death and kill themselves to go to this place they've made up to make themselves feel better.
A side effect to sapience, seeing the world as it is and fearing it terribly. So they cloak it with lies. The need to escape it without leaving existence. Fear and desire.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
