If so, it's a self-fulfilling prophecy.  It's Christian fundamentalism hand-in-hand with Republicanism that makes most of the stupid stuff possible.  Overfishing?  Meh, God put fish for us to dominate.  Environmental destruction?  Meh, we wouldn't get sick if that wasn't part of God's mysterious plan.  Nuclear holocaust ending all human life?  Meh, it's in the Bible.  Was prolly gonna happen anyway, but no biggie my seat in Heaven is already bought and paid for.

The best way to make sure an apocalypse doesn't happen is to remove the belief system that expects it (and in many cases prays for it).
