MIT Predicts Civilization Will End By 20...

About this episode

This week, Granger and AntMan revisit a decades-old prediction that’s resurfacing online — an MIT study from 1972 claiming society could collapse by 2040. The two dig into what that actually means, what the researchers got right and wrong, and how changing population trends might be shaping the future faster than we realize.

 

From the idea of socialism as a global “solution” to declining birth rates and the rise of technology, the conversation moves from history to the present day. Granger shares stories from his travels, including a talk with a Venezuelan Uber driver, as they unpack why grand theories about saving the world always seem to ignore human nature.

 

But the heart of the episode isn’t fear — it’s faith. Granger points back to Scripture, reminding listeners that no matter what predictions come true, God’s plan doesn’t change. Whether the world lasts another fifteen years or a thousand, our mission remains the same: to live for Christ and share His gospel in the time we’re given.
