Notably: One day in 1910, in London, The New York Times reported the next day the following, at the top of Page 1 (this is the full article): “Gen. Booth of the Salvation Army has taken upon his shoulders the mantle of those sad prophets who from time to time have predicted the imminent dissolution of the world because of its wickedness. Addressing a meeting to-night, he said: “We have a world setting God Almighty at naught and rushing forward reckless of His wishes and threatenings as to their fate. Notwithstanding all that has been done in years gone by, men and women still pursue their wickedness to-day in all the nations of the earth. Not only one nation, but all nations, seem banded together as one great people of rebellion, transgression, and wickedness until some think–I believe a considerable degree of probability–that we may be approaching rapidly the end of all things, with similar results but far surpassing in magnitude as anything that has gone before: that all things may be wound up, but that instead of there being a deluge of water sweeping the world and its inhabitants there will be destruction by fire.” Now where have we heard that recently?

“Things are ending,” he told her. “This civilization; things are closing in on it. It has been quite a culture, brilliant and foul, cannibal and Christian, the glory of the world. We should celebrate it while we can; until night falls.”

–From Salman Rushdie’s Satanic Verses (1988).
