Prophecies and fortune-tellings are so vague and general that a seemingly fitting event could be associated to a given prophecy and fortune-telling.

Civilisations come and go, and many societies in ancient times face upheavals on a more regular basis. My theory is that these prophecies about apocalypse came about based on these past experiences. In our pattern-searching mind, we think that the end of the world will definitely come, because humans are simply repeating the same mistakes over and over. It’s a self-fulfilling prophecy because, according to the lovable man-killing machine about humans, “it is on your nature to destroy yourselves.”
