1. Economical collapse, for which you later withdrew and said, "recession," but clearly we've had some pretty bad ones and the world didn't go into the middle ages again. I'm preparing for an economic collapse which everyone knows is possible and will happen in the future
2. Flares, which you cited NASA on, but didn't provide a link. Helpfully, someone did for you, which took out your entire argument, as NASA said flares would not cause a collapse.
3. WW3, which had a few possible explanations: 1. electricity shortage- that's from a TV show, not real life. 2. people will just not like each other- logically, this is flawed beyond explanation.
There are also a few major flaws throughout your arguments: no sources, no logic, no explanation, contradictory information. All of these have been pointed out before, as well as specific refutations from other posters.
On NSG, we like to hear good debate. Because you are one of the few that has chosen to speak up on the "pro-apocalypse" side, which I commend you for, by the way, you have to provide an argument if you want to debate. The key line is this: If you want to have people believe your opinion, you need to argue for it with facts, logic, and sources. Otherwise, there's no use in responding to your claims.
If you don't want to continue, feel free to stop. If you want to continue your methods so far, I think the other people on this thread are probably done trying to coax information out of you. If you want to back up your claims with information, it would be warmly welcomed (I hope).
I'm preparing for an economic collapse which everyone knows is possible. I pointed to the recession as proof that the western world is not immune from collapsing.

Electricity shortage- that's from a TV show, not real life.- when did i say that, Electric shortages are a result not a cause. 2. people will just not like each other- logically, this is flawed beyond explanation- You really think that a nuclear war is not possible. considering that if Israel nukes the Iranian nuke program, it would force the western world and the muslim world to go into a global WW3.

French officials have banned access to the Pic de Bugarach to avoid a rush of New Age fanatics, sightseers and, above all, journalists [due to] the rumour that the mountain in south-west France will burst open on December 21st revealing an alien spaceship which will carry nearby humans to safety.

Or limousines can survive jumps.
Anyway...
...one of the things that fascinates me about religion is there had to be a 'patient zero' somewhere, someone who kind of at least knew in the back of their head that they were making this shit up. Tired of pointing out the obvious, "because it smells awesome and when there are 50 or so sweaty farmers packing in this un-airconditioned building you all fucking stink," the guy with the incense had to at one point just decided, "because it wards off evil spirits" and that shit stuck.
Even if you're religious, you've picked one and believe the others made their shit up. Just in case you were about to get mad at me calling religion made up.
But...still, where does some of this shit come from...like this:French officials have banned access to the Pic de Bugarach to avoid a rush of New Age fanatics, sightseers and, above all, journalists [due to] the rumour that the mountain in south-west France will burst open on December 21st revealing an alien spaceship which will carry nearby humans to safety.

It's a mixture of trolling and Poe's law, I think.
Hey baby there is an alien spaceship in my bed with room for two, that will save us in the event of Apocalypse sound ?

I always thought it was a way to drum up Tourism for a few weeks to make the locals money to buy stuff for Xmas.
Now if only I can turn this into a pick up line.
How does this sound?Hey baby there is an alien spaceship in my bed with room for two, that will save us in the event of Apocalypse sound ?

That's a good model to follow. Then you will be inwardly serene no matter what.
