The world must end because it began. How the world will end has been the focus of heated discussions. The theme of the end of the world has given rise to conferences, meetings, films and books attempting to prophesy the end of times. With the emergence of doomsday prophets, misconceptions have also arisen that preach propaganda to an audience of those seeking immunity from a single doomsday. One author in particular is Ronald Bailey. According to Forbes.com, Ronald Bailey was a science editor for Forbes magazine and wrote an essay titled Seven Apocalyptic Myths About the Environment. Bailey wrote this essay in response to misconceptions about Doomsday. In his essay, he attempts to identify the errors present in seven of the most common apocalyptic claims made by apocalyptic preachers. Bailey seeks to debunk some of the fallacies used to invoke the agendas of doomsday prophets in order to present people with the pure truth. However, while Bailey attempts to debunk the mistakes of others, he also creates mistakes himself. The purpose of my rebuttal article is to point out some of the fallacies Bailey himself creates as he attempts to debunk common misconceptions about the end of the world. Indeed, the notions of the beginning and end of the world are left to interpretation. However, many people have claimed that, based on the data they have encountered, there will be an end of the world one day. On the other hand, others, like Bailey, don't buy into the Doomsday hype. In fact, according to Bailey, “THE END IS NOT NEAR!” That's right - the Apocalypse has been postponed for the foreseeable future, despite the dire prognoses. used informal fallacies such as Ad Hominem and Appeal To Unauthorized Authority to attempt to debunk the fallacies of others; he himself became guilty of errors. Likewise, one could say that it is inevitable not to indulge in errors when a debate is underway. The key to debate is that often people can agree and disagree. Works Cited Bailey, Robert.
