    MrG,
    Perhaps you should be careful about using Isaac Newton as a source of religious doctrine.
    This is what he had to say about the "end of days". (highlight is mine)

    In a manuscript he wrote in 1704 (never intended to be published) he mentions the date of 2060, but it is not given as a date for the end of days. It has been falsely reported as a prediction.[131] The passage is clear, when the date is read in context. He was against date setting for the end of days, concerned that this would put Christianity into disrepute.

    and

    "This I mention not to assert when the time of the end shall be, but to put a stop to the rash conjectures of fanciful men who are frequently predicting the time of the end, and by doing so bring the sacred prophesies into discredit as often as their predictions fail. Christ comes as a thief in the night, and it is not for us to know the times and seasons which God hath put into his own breast."[133][131]

    ----------------------

    You probably don't want to see the parallel between the failed Watchtower predictions and the failed predictions mentioned by Newton both of which discredit "sacred prophecies".
