Alexis Buford
Western Kentucky University In “Cheer up, It’s just the end of the world” by Ira Chernus, she has constructed how Americans overlook the shadow of apocalypse. In other words, apocalypse is complete destruction of anything or the world. In general, there are serve issues that remain disregarded. Chernus draws to readers’ attention how nuclear massacre and environmental destruction are actual tribulations. Uniquely, Chernus uses the example of Act 1 and Act 2 from the bible to relate how apocalypse connects through religious perspective and elaborates with Tom Paine’s, “Common Sense” to support the religious position.
