Hungtableed: Armageddon originally meant the Final Battle; however, now it's used as a general statement for the end of the world.

Incorrect, and subsequent failure.

Armageddon is the name of a fucking PLACE, taken from the name Meggido. It is the grounds where the final battle between good and evil will be fought.

I would love to know what dictionary you find it defined as the end of the world. Are you thinking of the Apocalypse? Maybe Ragnarok? If you're going to bash religion, maybe know a little about it?

The origin of the term is disputed; like most shit in the Bible, it's pretty open for interpretation depending on what agenda you're looking to push. Meggido is one possible origin. It can also be interpreted as "mount of the congregation" in Hebrew. Jehovah's Witnesses have another interpretation, Seventh Day Adventists still another. The modern usage is, of course, generically "the end of the world." It's also a place where you can buy crust vinyl and Venom t-shirts. So neener neener neener to you, good sir.
