Wanting to live in the end times is kind of cowardly since it absolves of you of the burden of building a better future.

Wanting to live in the end times is kind of cowardly since it absolves of you of the burden of building a better future. Some great compelling force will come down from on high and sort it all out.
Since you don't really know what times you face it's more responsible and brave to live as if these are the "Beginning Times" instead. And with great effort you may do a tiny bit of good that lasts a few decades beyond your grave.

@futurebird an apocalypse is just a disaster with a good marketing department. we need to act on the assumption that life will survive; the challenge we face is therefore to figure out how.

@ireneista When the revelation is really good, you won't even have to deliver the disaster.

@futurebird That's why postapocalyptic fiction is more interesting than apocalyptic fiction. So much future-building to do once the end of the world will be over!
