One Fish, Two Fish

Will the world end one day? This question has traumatized many and left thousands perplexed. While some are dubious about it, others say that the end of the world is the end of your world. That is to say that when you die your world has ended. Will the world really end one day? If the answer is yes, it will be interesting to know why, when and how it will be. The aim of this book is not to frighten the reader but to try to answer this question step by step on the basis of infallible proof.

In this essay I will once again show how the Official Narrative of science re: the End of the World can be successfully challenged, opening up a new understanding of the objective nature of the end of the world. With this fresh understanding we can suddenly re-evaluate the world-wide cries that address the end of the world. It is an objectively real phenomenon, as real as the predicted end of the physical earth (in 4-7 billion years). But unlike the time scale of our scientifically predicted end of the world, this end of the world has already “happened” i.e. is past and, at the same time, is emerging into our present from the unknown future. And it IS imminent.

Book review, Richard Grusin, ed., Anthropocene Feminism, Minneapolis, University of Minnesota Press, 2017. The Anthropocene marks who it is that feels under threat of extinction in this moment; who feels despair at the litany of stories about the end of the world and ecological apocalypse. For many of the largely absent interlocutors, whole lifeworlds and ecosystems have been unravelling around them for generations. As it appears in the contributions to this volume, feminism in the Anthropocene is an ethical concern – a question of seeing and feeling differently. What is missing in this volume is an articulation of a feminist praxis for struggling within ecological crisis, one that foregrounds the conditions of exposure to the slow violence of the Anthropocene vis-à-vis the conditions of womanhood and gender relations.

Logos: A Journal of Catholic Thought and Culture , 2021

Preface to Logos: A Journal of Catholic Thought and Culture 24:3 (Summer 2021): 5-21. In this essay, based on the spring 2021 Thought and Culture Lecture at the University of St. Thomas, I probe an increasingly secularized culture's fascination with endings, namely apocalyptic ones--despite the discordance with a secular outlook. I then turn to the various Christian apocalyptic visions of the last few centuries and examine what the Catholic teaching on the end actually is. Finally, I look briefly at Robert Hugh Benson's 1907 novel, *Lord of the World,* as a good example of a Catholic--though not infallible--apocalyptic vision. The essay also includes: a notice of the passing of editorial board member John Polkinghorne; information about the new podcast, Deep Down Things; and blurbs for the articles in the issue.

This text weaves together Indigenous teachings that affirm that if we approach the potential, likelihood or inevitability of the collapse of our current system with relational maturity, sobriety and accountability we will be taught to heal our relations and coexist differently with each other and the Earth. This text was collaboratively written by a collective of Indigenous and non-Indigenous researchers, artists, educators, and activists from the Global North and South. The collaborative process was coordinated by Cash Ahenakew, who holds a Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Peoples’ Health and Wellbeing.

This paper will describe why I believe the human world is coming to a selfimposed end. In the first half of the paper it will examine multiple conflicts that have occurred since the beginning of the 21 st centuries and in the second part will examine how collectively they have led us to the point we are about to be eradicated. The purpose of this paper is not to spread fear, to radicalize individuals or to blame any specific individual, nation or institution. The purpose of this paper is simply to inform people of the potential world war three that in my opinion is on the verge of breaking out with the very real potential of being a nuclear holocaust that would have the most devastating number of casualties compared to any previous conflicts and at the worst lead to the complete eradication of the human race. That all being said I need to stress this is not to scare but to inform.

The Twentieth Century ushered in a historic era of optimism for the rational "modern" future of humanity. As the century fades into history, that modernist dream lies in pieces-but new outlines are emerging for a wiser, more hopeful future.

In this short essay I have showed one possible research on meaningfulness speech about the end of the world, which, if it is not taking into account the worldviews that structure understanding of every phenomenon and notion in my world, indicates a conceptual error when talking about various scenarios of the end of the world.
