day of judgment
Ultimate cosmic accounting
The day of judgment is the time when God judges all humanity, assigning souls to heaven or hell based on their earthly lives.
The concept appears across religions—Christianity, Islam, Judaism—under various names: Judgment Day, the Last Judgment, Doomsday.
Figuratively, any moment of final reckoning: When the day of judgment comes for this company, investors will demand answers.
