It's amazing that we could go on as if human-life will sustain itself if 'plausibly through technology' or some other ungodly means. And just maybe the U.N. will allow all the freedoms of the world to it's subjects when the day comes. 10-20-30-40 years from now it must happen--at the rate we are going as a species- that the world be shook-up by the True God, drowning in a dark sky with thick gloom awaiting rocks of fire and sulfur to hit down.
And if the sky becomes dark with thick gloom......

Unobservant one, I said Kirap! Don't you read the literature these days? When the sign of the son of man comes, you may not notice it! Tsk tsk, are you a foolish virgin?
Expatbrit, studying the latest issue of Kirap!

Poet,
How has human life been sustaining itself over the past hundreds and thousands of years? Has it been, by your definition, in an "ungodly" way?
What will make the next 10-40 years any different? We have to be careful when trying to predict the time of the end, so many have been burned throughout MANY centuries saying that in each case, THEIR century was the time of the end. I know you have read of this being the case in both the 19th and the 20th centuries. What exactly makes the 21st century different?
If you point to the usual wars, earthquakes and things, you will get quite a barrage of counter-arguments here. That doesn't mean those who are doing the counter-arguing are unspiritual. It may just mean they're being realistic. (Just trying to broaden your thinking here a bit.)
Too many Christians have been laughed at over the centuries for proclaiming "the sky is falling", when in fact it wasn't. Let's spare ourself that same fate.
I could go on, but I'll end it with this info: if you read another thread that started today, you'll see that KIRAP is the Papua/New Guinean word for AWAKE, and so in that part of the world you can get a load of KIRAP magazines (sorry, couldn't resist....).
GopherWhy shouldn't truth be stranger than fiction? Fiction, after all, has to make sense.
