Isaac Newton, famous for his groundbreaking scientific discoveries, also participated in predicting the future. Ironically, he was trying to predict the end of the Earth and according to his calculations, the year was 2060. Yes, that’s right. According to his predictions, there are only 40 years left.
Newton’s passion for science
Isaac Newton, an eccentric teacher, was renowned for his dedication to science. He was persistent in his pursuit of knowledge to such extremes that some people thought him insane. For example, he risked his life by putting needles in his eyes to study the nature of light. He even directly observed solar eclipses for long periods of time to study their effects on the human eye. His desire for scientific research knew no bounds. Alchemy and divination
Despite being famous for his contributions to mathematics, Newton’s true passion was alchemy. He spent a lot of time reading books trying to unlock the secrets found in Harry Potter’s Philosopher’s Stone. He even tried to use his alchemical studies to predict the fate of the world – a fiery apocalypse in 2060.
the biblical connection
Newton studied the Bible and religious texts and combined this with his mathematical skills to predict when the world would end or, as he put it, “when the Kingdom of God will triumph on earth.” He saw it as a restoration, not a complete cessation of all life. In any case, his prediction was not a happy picture for the people living at the time.
the period of prophecy
Newton spent a lot of time studying religious books and studying the chronology of past events to understand them. He firmly believed that God had planned future events. He presented various “prophetic” eras based on the Bible. According to his calculations, 2060 marks the beginning of a new era that may be accompanied by conflict and disaster, but will ultimately lead to a new era of the gods.
Newton’s vision and modern relevance
A prediction made by Newton in 1704 may not seem relevant to him 300 years later. However, since this estimated date is less than 40 years away, it has caught the attention of some. This is not the first time someone has predicted the end of the world.
Because history is full of failed predictions like the 2012 scare or the 2012 Mayan calendar prediction. What distinguishes Newton’s predictions is that they are based on science and mathematics as well as faith. He based his theory on the biblical Book of Daniel and calculated that the apocalypse would occur exactly 1260 years after the founding of the Holy Roman Empire.
Newton also predicted that the apocalypse would not occur until the Jews returned to the sanctuary, which happened in 1948, when Israel was founded. Although the end may be later, Newton’s predictions suggest 2060 at best. Possible scenario. Uncertainty and life priorities
It is not known whether Newton’s prediction was correct or not. It confuses beliefs and interpretation of the Bible. You never know when the world will end. But it’s best to focus on living well and making a positive impact on the planet while you still have the chance. Ultimately, it’s the actions we take today that truly shape our future, no matter when it ends.
