It is so bright....
I gotta wear shades.

I have the sound track to Blade Runner.

We listen to it every night quietly before bed.
I'm usully sleeping by the third or fourth cut.

I've heard it over 7,000 times...seriously.

Soilant Green......

I was hoping to hear some *actual* outlooks.

Of course, I already know there aren't any.
( nobody wants to admit that )


KT

Ah, I wish I had the image from Futurama with the food box on the table that read: "Soylent Green -- NEW! Now with more GIRLS!"

Trekkor,

Is your outlook for the future hidden somewhere in your first five posts ? If so, what does it all mean ? I understand most of the English written in this forum, but your texts are impossible for me to comprehend.

Personally, I believe man´s ego is stronger than his wisdom and sooner or later we are all going to pay the price. Big time.

No problem.

Matt 24 the events prophesied, quakes, wars, etc, would be sign of the last days...the time we are living in now.

A solution, God's Kingdom, will also be preached worldwide at the same time.

Notice, vs 21-22:
"21_for then there will be great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world’s beginning until now, no, nor will occur again. 22_In fact, unless those days were cut short, no flesh would be saved; but on account of the chosen ones those days will be cut short."

Man will not be allowed to destroy the earth.

Have you been touched?

I'm going to become a pirate and do my part to reverse global warming.

I look forward to the days of blood and bones. Primal instict drives and intellect is based on your skill to survive. Eat what you kill and try not to become food.

Tyer Durdin said it best:

"You're not your fu_kin chaikis."

2 Timothy 3:1-7 tells us what the attitudes of the people will look like in the last days.

John 17:3, take in knowledge.

Ps 37- earth is man's permanant home.


Romans 15:4-

"_For all the things that were written aforetime were written for our instruction, that through our endurance and through the comfort from the Scriptures we might have hope".

After all the reads this thread has had, why are there no other serious views of the future?

I'm telling you the truth. I always will...


KT

you can pick any point in history and say it is "the end of times" as prophesized in the bible.

What I first posted was serious. Evidently you don't want to read any Buddhist thought?

You expect us to take your narrow interpretation of the bible as a "serious" view?

I agree with what nostatic says. Look into some Buddhist thought. I have been heading down that path myself.

Serious predictions for the future.

Life expectancy rate rises due to stem cell technology
computers that are based on chemicals rather than silicon (direct interface with the brain)

No, sir.

this is the *only* time in history that they ( features of "the sign" ) are all happening at the same time to this degree.

This is the only time that man has had the abilty to destroy himself.

the Good News is being preached worldwide...then the end will come.

Not the end of the earth.
Isaiah 45:18-
" For this is what Jehovah has said, the Creator of the heavens, He the [true] God, the Former of the earth and the Maker of it, He the One who firmly established it, who did not create it simply for nothing, who formed it even to be inhabited: “I am Jehovah, and there is no one else".

Back in the mid 80's as a teen, I was pretty sure we were all gonna get nuked. That verse was a comfort to me then...Still is.

Anyone ready to admit that storms, earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes and plagues have always been part of the world? Anyone willing to admit that our ability to provide instant communication makes these more front and center than they would be without the communications net? Anyone ready to admit that in ancient times a local phenomon could be interpreted as world-wide?

If the world is to end (and it does every day for many of its inhabitants), the scriptures, according to the "experts" say that information is not knowable to man, but only to the Creator. Everything ends sooner or later. Trying to make sense out of the Bible or any other Holy Book is like St Augustine's story of the child at the seashore trying to empty the ocean into a small hole in the sand. The human mind is incapable of such a journey, living as it does in a world constrained by only four dimensions. To me, humbly, I do not try to understand the mind of God, and feel that those who assume to do so are some of the most dangerous people on the planet.

Personally, I am a fan of entropy. The universe will continue to use up all available energy and at sometime in the far distant future, reach a steady state and be dark....very dark.

in the mid 80's people were saying it was "the end". And before that. And after that. Maybe your housing value is just peaking now so you want to sell before the rapture and make out like a king...

What I've never quite understood is why more people don't take the Islamic approach and off themselves. If you believe the end is coming, why not avoid the rush? Gonna be quite a line outside the pearly gates...Peter's only one man. If suicide is a sin, God will forgive you...

Ahh, but see the difference is that the current end-of-the-worlders are alive NOW. God has been waiting for *them* to be alive so he could pull up the tent stakes and have them be a special part of it all.

In the end it is all about ego-centricity. As far as I can tell, most of the "Christians" who spout this kind of thing, and generally rail against hedonism and ego, are generally quite egocentric themselves. Otherwise, why would they embrace this task? Fascinating from a psychoanalytical perspective, and it all makes sense. It's all about them...

When I was in college -- nearly four decades ago, I first encountered Jehovah's Witnesses and their Watchtower magazine. I particularly remember one cover with a train representing modern society speeding along a trstle that just stopped. The message was that the End Times were here and the world as we know it was about to end.

They had the same hysteria around each new millennium, too. And World War I brought a lot of doomsday talk.

Some Bible scholars think the End Times/Rapture prophesies were expected to happen within the first 50 years after the crucifixion. So yes, that stuff has always been with us.
