I love people, but I am not under any misconception about human nature. (The Beast). Nor am I deluded concerning what age and timeline we are in.

Visit the daily News sites. One being called, " The Daily "Beast", for evidence and example.

What is all of time, the history of the physical universe, in comparison to that which is apart from time, or, Eternity? Which is the greater reality?

Nevertheless, we are in a "Tower of Babel" situation, literally, regarding communications technologies.
The world also, rapidly becoming the global neghborhood, and community.

What happened in the Tower of Babel story?
Here is the problem. a seperation from Heaven, regarding the Fall. And, a fallen Human nature, about which we read of in the News, daily.

It's always been like that. Societies always have problems. A real problem is how we're treating the earth, and the overpopulation of humans. There won't be any dramatic 'end of the world' scene like in the movies, unless a meteor hits us, but we will have to deal with these problems more and more, because it's just what happens when a species grows too large -- nature eventually thins it out.

I agree with what you said, Seawolf. I believe humans will self-destruct because of overpopulation, over consumption and the ever-increasing destruction of the world's ecosystem which ultimately effects every living thing on this planet. We are thinning out nature and nature is pushing back. I can't believe the UN is finally agreeing that humans are the cause of climatic changes do to their own polluting of the atmosphere. Even bodies of water have an imbalance of acid and alkaline because of human pollution. We keep pushing the limits and weather patterns around the globe are becoming catastrophic. We are slowly killing ourselves and the planet. If that's the end times, we're in it.

And, neither of you feel that apart from time, it is all a known?

That it had been prophesied about long ago? From a greater reality and Truth, existant?

That also, there is a contingency?

Morpheus - I tend to side with Biblical prophecy. And yes, I was demonstrating human destruction of the ecosystem as a step toward the end of the human race as well as plants and animals. As far as the final hour of our demise, no one knows when it will occur. Prophets have said 'current events' signify the end times for centuries. The hour hasn't arrived. Humans can be beautiful beings, caring, compassionate and sensitive, but those concerned with economic gain and the destruction of the planet as a result, I believe out number those awake. I also believe there is a lot of symbolism in the Bible so any one of us could take a guess at what current happenings fit into the Biblical prophecies. Just like no one knows the hour, we don't know for sure if we're right about end times either. I don't know if I'm right or wrong; I just know what I see in the world and giving my opinion.

Awake to what? I think it is a misconducted notion that some are not awake. Is this a notion invented by the spiritual hypocrisy to make themselves superior? I suggest that everyone is very much awake (or equally asleep), it is just so that we do not all agree on what is the "right" course of action Personally I do not believe in the notion that humanity or Earth for that sake should be fallen in any way. I at times wonder what some people gain by holding and spreading such degrading beliefs And why do some see people who hold such kind of beliefs at heart as awaken, it more seem to me like they are struggling with an internal nightmare does it not? Just some thoughts...

Dream Librarian – I struggle from no “internal nightmare” of any kind. You don’t know me or what I’ve been through in life to which I’ve acquired great strength. I’m sorry that “awake” bothers you. It was perhaps a wrong word choice on my part, as I don’t put anyone in categories as to their spiritual aptitude. I love all people and am not making a judgment as being superior to anyone. No spiritual hypocrisy going on here. As a matter of fact, I don’t claim to be all that spiritual or religious for that matter. Getting back to my initial point, I do believe humans are destroying the earth’s ecosystem. That’s backed up by scientific evidence. The nightmare, if there is any, is one day, perhaps not in our lifetime, there will be minimal plant life and animal life because man will likely have taken over every square inch of the planet. If that statement seems pessimistic, well then it is. If economic gain for human comfort and means of making a living, doesn’t effect the environment, then who is tearing down forests to build neighborhoods, for example? I know humans have to sustain life for themselves, but we share this planet with a lot of life. I personally don’t like zoos because the animals all look depressed because they are not in a free, natural environment, yet we put them in captivity for our own enjoyment. I think I’ll stop here.
