[edit]

Isn't the "correct" form in Modern Indian translated to english via latin root Prealay??

"Pralay in Hindu mythology means the day when Earth will be destroyed by Nature's fury. Christians refer to it as Judgement Day."

It seems to me that the Christian idea of Judgement Day is different than Pralay, as Judgement Day consists of a supreme GOD destroying the Earth, not nature. Murderbike 15:57, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't the article contradict itself though - the first sentence talks about destruction by nature, but the text extract refers to destruction by flood caused by a god - whilst technically this could also count as destruction by nature, the absolute cause of the flood differs.
