That insane eschatolgy of the 'second coming'
End-times eschatology, usually deals with issues
related to the end of the present world order such as the return of Jesus
Christ;
What is happening is that soon life will be discovered on other planets and Theology will have to find a way to accommodate these new scientific discoveries as their teachings unfold as being provincial in a cosmic sense.
In the
scenario of fact 7.5 billion years from now "the sun will loom 250 times
larger in the sky than it is today, and it will scorch the Earth beyond
recognition." Source New Scientist.
And so after all those million of years of progress
as Charles Darwin has it:..."it is an intolerable thought that all sentient
beings are doomed to complete destruction after such long continued slow
progress.
All together now, ;Let's hear it for, God;s long term plan. .
