Poll: Americans see gloom, doom in 2007

By Darlene Superville, Associated Press Writer December 31, 2006

WASHINGTON --Another terrorist attack, a warmer planet, death and destruction from a natural disaster. These are among Americans' grim predictions for the United States in 2007...

Six in 10 people think the U.S. will be the victim of another terrorist attack next year, more than five years after the Sept. 11 assault on New York and Washington. An identical percentage think it is likely that bad guys will unleash a biological or nuclear weapon elsewhere in the world...

Seventy percent of Americans predict another major natural disaster within the United States and an equal percentage expect worsening global warming. Fewer than one-third of people, or 29 percent, think it is likely that the U.S. will withdraw its troops from Iraq...

--Slightly more than one-third, or 35 percent, of Americans predict the military draft will be reinstated...

Also in that story, and perhaps more frightening
_One in four, 25 percent, anticipates the second coming of Jesus Christ.
