Hi this is an interesting question that has a lot of history and modern-day applications. The topic of Y2K started 20 years ago when they believed that a massive computer failure as the clocks rolled over to the year 2000. Then it was expressed the Year 2000 okay became known worldwide. But another issue arose from Y2K involving the religious world that the year 2000 is also when many people expect the Y2K computer "bug" to cause worldwide problems, including the disruption of electricity, water services, food delivery, banking systems and transportation, leading to a complete breakdown in society.
This was 20 years ago and developed with time into Y2K Apocalypse issue. In the year 2021 how can we look back religiously to defined what has happened to the world?
(1. Was there a computer bug that started natural catastrophic events all over the world? No
(2. Did people acknowledge that Christ would come suddenly for all to see? No
(3. Do we understand that the End Times has arrived? NO
(4. Do we clearly know what the End Times mean? NO
(5. Do we know what we are talking about when it comes to both the End of the world, or the apocalypse? No
How did this happen that we could not understand what is going on in spite of religious awareness?
