Change is slow to be recognized.

I do not believe there will be a “big bang” or one single moment where a disaster alters everything. I don’t believe in a single apocalyptic event as such. I think events will speed up and that speed of events may cause great stress on humanity but I don’t think four horsemen will sweep down and spread plagues, death and destruction.

Change is slow to be recognized. Ten years ago I listened to a serious argument among electrical engineers that 19.2 Kbaud for data transfer over a telephone line was a physical impossibility. Ten years later, 28.8 Kbaud transfer are ordinary. In 1902, people with a PhD in physics argued heavier-than-air flight was impossible. Within a year, two bicycle mechanics from Ohio had built and flown a powered aircraft with a human pilot. As time passes it is human nature to overlook how far we’ve come and how quickly we got here. With all due respect to those who take Biblical prophesy literally, I have always considered them as allegories. If I’m wrong about that, then I’ll see you in hell.

    You sir, are ‘the’ man. I agree completely. it goes along with the old saying “just as the theories of yesterday or mocked today, the theories of today will be mocked tommorow” or it went something like that. And i think the prosses will be slow aswell, as there wont be any gods or devils or angels swooping down and destroying everthing. It will be naturally occuring extreme weather events, naturally appearing diseases and ofcoarse EXTREME heat waves. did you knwo that in 2003 35 000 people died in europe from heat waves? its a start to an end.
