There is a Bible verse, forget the specifics, that notes that people will worship falsehood and hate truth in the end times. That seems to be a common theme when empires end.
My grandparents are really into the idea that we're in the End Times. I'm not convinced that we're in THE End Times, but rather in A End Times. History is cyclical, with rising and falling empires. I'll bet people thought that the world was ending when Rome fell too. We're on the precipice of a major fall, but that doesn't mean that the entire world is ending just yet.

To be fair, "our world" is ending. Or Hell, it already did and we are coming to terms with it having already died.
