Final Exam Paper

For our last paper my group decided to pick the Apocalypse. In this topic we chose several sub groups which include symbolism in relation to the apocalypse, a scientific view of the apocalypse and whether or not it will occur, a faith based view point, and the effect the media has had on the topic. I chose to discuss the scientific view point towards the hypothesis and will be focusing on one specific scientific theory. I will then use scientific facts and speculation to support the scientific argument chosen. So far I have researched the Yellowstone super volcano the most. This is the giant volcano that lies dormant underneath Yellowstone Park. Scientists predict that it will explode about every 600,000 years....and it has been about 640,000 since the last explosion. I am also exploring a few viewpoints that work to disprove the apocalypse theory and will be making a final decision in class tomorrow with my group.
