The only thing shaking in the US is the WTBTS headquarters that had to sell off property and invest in less profitable areas to rebuild . You might say the economic earth quake is shaking them . Most people in the US are still claiming to be christian and believe God is on their side . Most christian churches support the rule of democracy as it is . I think we are living in troubled times but the word from most sources outside the WTBTS is that things are not going to end anytime soon . Most people seem to have an optimistic outlook , that if we even show concern for the environment it won't be unrepairable . Personally I don't look at things that way but am aware I am in a minority .
