I agree on the sentiment - We live beyond our means and that doesn't even make sense. But I find the prediction that we would perish in the near future neither well founded nor sensible. The motivation behind it is also bizarre: so that we can make our peace. To put it polemically: When will we go down so that I can tell my mom? And if we're certain to perish, then why bother with suffering and morality? If death is so certain, who would want to suffer again before it? Is it a true belief that those who have made peace with life suddenly become 'moral'? I'm saying this, because I think some people need the apocalypse to feel unity and belonging. They seem to have such a strong desire for community and unity that they would summon hell and devils just to bring people together.
