Well, this might sound too obvious, but I think that if there was a start 6000 years ago, there has to be sometime. The rate at which things are going, don't look the best. The leaders of the world can't agree on everything. Everything is about policy rather than being realistic about the world's problems. They keep inventing new things that put people out of jobs, like those automated check out scanners, instead of having a checkout chick. You use to be able to work in a factory, but now all the Chinese and Indians do it. You use to be able to call someone about your phone bill in _______ (fill the gap)country. Now the calls are in India.
I am not sure about inventions. I am a bit sick of them actually. :( Why can't people help out Africans in Africa? Why do they always make the US look glamorous? There are so many homeless people over there! In Australia as well! Everytime I see a film from the US, I always try to remind myself "This is the top 5% of America." When I watch Opera Winfrey, I say to myself "You wouldn't even get through the front door, if you had shabby, bum clothes on. They only want you to see this fairy tale America!" I hope you know what I mean, but America is a prime example. We never hear about the everyday American that much. There are millions of people that don't have anywhere near as much money as Nicole Kidman or Russell Crows (who is a New Zealander originally).
This terrorism in Israel has been going on for 40 years intensively! Eversince Lost In Space started!!! They can't stop terrorism there! They can't stop it in London either! There will be a terrorist attack in Sydney eventually. It's a matter of when... The new motto in Australia is (for signs of strange bags at train stations etc) "If you see something, say something."
Things will only get worse...
They reckon it's like only about "5 minutes to midnight" on the nuclear clock. I know they switched it back. But some dictator from North Korea can let one of those bastard things off and hit me right here in Sydney!!! Say I am stupid but I shocked at how far those things can go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's pretty far. Actually we are closer to Britain geographically than a lot of those far eastern Asian countries. It's just perception because you see this really big, cold place called Antartica that seems to make it look so far away. So it just emphasizes how far way North Korea is!
No one is safe anymore because of this global village thing! I no more safe than you people in the United States or Great Britain.
I believe in that multi-colored statue that's mentioned in the Bible. We are at the feet of it. I don't want to put a date on it like the Watchtower does, but I just want to keep living and being prepared if it happens! -- Bit like a terrorist attack really! :)
It does talk about future empires in the Bible like Britain and America... And the United Nations is the last big thing... and then bang!
There's my rant. Just how I feel about everything.
