Scary.

20% believe it will happen within their lifetime, so presumably in this century.
34% believe the earth will get worse before Jesus returns.
23% believe that humanity can affect the timing.

I wish they had asked conditional on that last question "Should humanity attempt to hasten the return of Jesus" to see the level of apocalyptic Christians with a death-wish inside the United States. I'd guess it's something like 10% of the populace or something.

Which is terrifying.

I don't believe this event will occur in my lifetime, but who am I to say that it will not.

Do you believe that "humanity can affect the timing"?

Do you believe that humanity should?
