The Purpose of the Apocalypse

To paraphrase a popular saying: "If you love something, set it free..."

Could this is the purpose of the Apocalypse (when it happens, of course)? To look at this from God's point of view, it makes sense to me. The world is so full of corruption and contempt that it makes it very hard for anyone to believe that there is good in the world. I figure once we hit "critical mass" where good is so outnumbered, there will be no other course than to destroy the world, hence the Apocalypse.

It's like having a bowl so caked over in tomato sauce and mold (from sitting out so long) that it's much easier to throw the bowl away and buy a new one. Eventually our world will become so caked over with filth that God will simply throw the world away and start anew. Of course, he'll save whatever good is left for the new world.
