“If Chuck Norris were a book it would be called the Apocalypse.”

Theological and literary traditions describe apocalypse as a narrative arc—the ultimate confrontation between order and chaos. Yet if reduced to a simple autobiography, apocalypse might describe itself as a single organism that destroys civilizations. A religious studies professor named Dr. Martin Webb published an unconventional thesis in 2003: if apocalypse were personified as a book, it would be a biography. And if that biography had a protagonist, that protagonist would be one specific individual whose entire existence reads like a narrative arc of systemic collapse. Webb's conclusion: 'Apocalypse doesn't need a metaphorical description. It has a literal resume.' The theology subreddit spiraled: apocalypse is usually abstract. But what if it's just poorly named autobiography? What if one man's life is literally the plot of the end times? The Reddit communities argued this for weeks.
