considers the possibility that as well as the natural end of all things there 
may be another that is unnatural, a perverse end. He writes in this connection: 
“If Christianity should one day cease to be worthy of love ... then the 
prevailing mode in human thought would be rejection and opposition to it; and 
the Antichrist ... would begin his—albeit short—regime (presumably based on fear 
and self-interest); but then, because Christianity, though destined to be the 
world religion, would not in fact be favoured by destiny to become so, then, in 
a moral respect, this could lead to the (perverted) end of all things”[<A title="" name="_ftnref18" href="#_ftn18">18</A>].</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/benedict_xvi/encyclicals/documents/hf_ben-xvi_enc_20071130_spe-salvi_en.html"><P><A title="" name="_ftn18" href="#_ftnref18">[18]</A> I.
