It could be UFOs. There were several UFO shows on the television when this strip was written in 1973. Such as Project Blue Book, UFO, the Invaders, and others.
In my lifetime the end of the world has been announced at least 5 times, I lost count. We’re still here. What part of “no man knows the day nor the hour” don’t they get?
The world will not end before the Temple is rebuilt in Jerusalem and so until that progress is begun the world goes along it’s own worldly way; plus there are to be three prophets who will be killed in the streets of Jerusalem and their bodies lie there for ‘x’ amt of time and then they will be restored to life. Also a Temple needs be built in Jackson County, Missouri before the world conditions end. These and more need occur first.
If there were ever a time in history that checked most of the boxes outlined in the Apocalypse it would have been the first half of the 20th century. We had a World War, followed by a global pandemic, followed by an economic depression followed by another World War and culminating in a Holocaust of one kind in Europe and another kind over Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
We are still here with some of the same old problems (because as a race, we are slow learners) and some new ones as well.
Snoopy, there is nothing to worry about. The world has already survived thousands of predictions of its end. Some by scientists, some by prophets, poets, ancient calendars, tribes, rabbis, priests and even the occasional TV network.
This would be a lot funnier if there weren’t people who felt this way over every strange development… which now comes – like clockwork – every couple of days.

I don’t think I understand this one. Are they under a blanket that they cut eye-holes into?

Nut cases have been announcing the end since man stopped eating mud. Schulz is having a bit of fun with the nuts.

Okay, did they steal one of Chuck’s ghost Halloween sheets or did they snatch Linus’ blanket and cut some holes in it?

I’m surprised that Snoopy didn’t turn the doghouse into a shelter of some kind!

If you live on the East Coast, the “strange light in the sky” at this time of year, is generally, the sun.
