Observing the events happening in the world today, I suddenly realized that I would like to subject the topic of the future of mankind to a thorough analysis and develop a chronology of how history will develop.

Initially, realizing that the very extinction of man as a species is almost impossible to predict, I based the story on the idea of a rather spiritual fall, based on the symbiosis of technological progress, religions and moral mores of society.

Today fake values will inevitably lead to a decline in birth rates, disunity, and a weakening of the human spirit. The Internet-originally a gift and salvation for people striving for development, has become a controlled tool for propaganda and a source of information garbage. People, being in their own virtual world, began to rapidly distance themselves from each other and the need for live communication decreased significantly. All these events are aimed at making people lonely, distancing them from the values of family and society, because a disconnected crowd is always easier to control.

Population control will depend entirely on the political top brass. Birth of new children will be entirely under the control of the state, which will breed people by planting the "right ideas", goals and values in their heads from birth.

Further, for prolongation of operational term (i.e. life) will be actively used replacement of organs on more resistant that in the long term will lead to that today's people in the near future, will turn into robots in which only necessary for the state human functions will be kept. And consciousness will be fully programmed and controlled.

The symbol of hope here is the last living flower, over which the Antichrist himself took a knife (fragment 1). The embodiment of society is a robot in which the last drop of free human mind remains (fragment 2). In his hand the robot holds an amulet with a shark's tooth, which is a protection against dark forces. At the same time, the amulet resembles a bullet, symbolizing the struggle, which, in the context of this painting, is lost.

The composition is completed by a picture of hell in which demons are tormenting Christ, who represents the faith of humanity in the victory of good over evil.(fragment 3)
