“The End of the World” Abstract: The article analyzes the situation which has arisen because of numerous eschatological interpretations of the future of the Universe and the Earth. Such interpretations leave no chance to humanity at all, or predict us a miserable future due to cosmic cataclysms which are likely to happen. The author proves on the material of his own methodological research in different scientific fields, as well as the works of Hannah Arendt, that such estimations implying disasters are associated with scientific understanding of the Universe, although this understanding has already been questioned by V.Kazyutinsky. The paper discusses alternative, more optimistic versions of the understanding of the Universe: historical-cultural, religious, methodological ones. It is concluded that there are various alternatives to the worldview given by rationalism and science.
Keywords: the Universe, humanity, the future, interpretation, history, culture, theory, scheme.
