Isaac Newton is a giant in the world of science. You might know him from his greatest hits: the laws of motion, gravity. While Newton didn't invent these forces of nature, he did figure out how they worked, using the scientific method to create models that described their effects perfectly. But these aren't the only intellectual nuts that Newton tried to crack. He also applied the scientific method to the Bible, in an attempt to predict the end of the world! Now, no one is certain whether Newton was right or wrong, because his predicted Day of Judgment has not arrived yet, so let's take a look at his claims with an open mind. This is how Isaac Newton predicted the end of the world.
