The big news was the marriage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. The Top 7 [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Christianity/Popular_pages|most popular articles]] in [[WP:X|WikiProject Christianity]] were:
<ol style="margin-left: -2.0em;">
# [[Elizabeth I of England]] – legendary monarch who ushered in the Elizabethan Era over the dead body of her [[Mary, Queen of Scots|half-sister]] (#5)
# [[Henry VIII of England]] – on his deathbed the last words of the king who founded the English Reformation were "Monks! Monks! Monks!"
# [[Martin Luther King Jr.]] – can't wait to see the [[United_States_five-dollar_bill#Redesign|new US$5 bill]] featuring the "I Have a Dream" speech
# [[Seven deadly sins]] – surprisingly "original research" is not one of the Seven deadly sins
# [[Mary, Queen of Scots]] – arrested for Reigning While Catholic (RWC)
# [[Michael Curry (bishop)]] – our article says that he upstaged Meghan at her wedding. Did you see her wedding pictures? All I can say is <small><nowiki>{{dubious}}</nowiki></small>
# [[Robert F. Kennedy]] – when informed that missiles were being installed in Cuba he famously quipped, "Can they hit [[Ole Miss riot of 1962|Oxford, Mississippi]]?"
</ol>

... that the little-known 1758 [[Methodism|Methodist]] hymn "'''[[Sun of Unclouded Righteousness]]'''" asks God to send the doctrine of the "Unitarian fiend ... back to hell", referring to both [[Islam]] and [[Unitarianism]]?

'''[[List of dates predicted for apocalyptic events]]'''. Predictions of [[apocalypse|apocalyptic events]] that would result in the extinction of humanity, a collapse of civilization, or the destruction of the planet have been made since at least the beginning of the [[Christian Era]]. Most predictions are related to [[Abrahamic religions]], often standing for or similar to the [[eschatological]] events described in their scriptures. Christian predictions typically refer to events like the [[Rapture]], [[Great Tribulation]], [[Last Judgment]], and the [[Second Coming of Christ]].
 
Polls conducted in 2012 across 20 countries found over 14% of people believe the world will end in their lifetime, with percentages raging from 6% of people in France to 22% in the US and Turkey. In the UK in 2015, the general public believed the likeliest cause would be [[nuclear war]], while experts thought it would be [[Existential risk from artificial general intelligence|artificial intelligence]]. Between one and three percent of people from both countries thought the apocalypse would be caused by [[zombies]] or [[alien invasion]].
