As the world population grows and the limited resources are stretched you will see many more conflicts.

Citizens of the USA are not going to take their standard of living plunging lying down. There will be a lot of pressure to find a new boogie man, whether it be Iran or some other country rich in natural resources. I think we will cause a tremendous amount of damage to the world as our dominance dwindles.

Anyone used to watch those shows on like the uber christian channels when they would take current events and relate them to the bible?

I remember one - the peace deal on cypress - that they turned into something about russian jews invading the holy land (russia was one of the participants in the peace deal) and the anti christ coming to power (when turkey joined the EU).

I think they said that the world will end in, actually, 2008.

It\'s been nice knowing you. My one hope is that the breakfast will sell out a stadium before they go.

Once upon a time (75 million years ago to be more precise) there was an alien galactic ruler named Xenu. Xenu was in charge of all the planets in this part of the galaxy including our own planet Earth, except in those days it was called Teegeeack.

Xenu the alien ruler Now Xenu had a problem. All of the 76 planets he controlled were overpopulated. Each planet had on average 178 billion people. He wanted to get rid of all the overpopulation so he had a plan.

Xenu took over complete control with the help of renegades to defeat the good people and the Loyal Officers. Then with the help of psychiatrists he called in billions of people for income tax inspections where they were instead given injections of alcohol and glycol mixed to paralyse them. Then they were put into space planes that looked exactly like DC8s (except they had rocket motors instead of propellers).

These DC8 space planes then flew to planet Earth where the paralysed people were stacked around the bases of volcanoes in their hundreds of billions. When they had finished stacking them around then H-bombs were lowered into the volcanoes. Xenu then detonated all the H-bombs at the same time and everyone was killed.

The story doesn\'t end there though. Since everyone has a soul (called a "thetan" in this story) then you have to trick souls into not coming back again. So while the hundreds of billions of souls were being blown around by the nuclear winds he had special electronic traps that caught all the souls in electronic beams (the electronic beams were sticky like fly-paper).

After he had captured all these souls he had them packed into boxes and taken to a few huge cinemas. There all the souls had to spend days watching special 3D motion pictures that told them what life should be like and many confusing things. In this film they were shown false pictures and told they were God, The Devil and Christ. In the story this process is called "implanting".

When the films ended and the souls left the cinema these souls started to stick together because since they had all seen the same film they thought they were the same people. They clustered in groups of a few thousand. Now because there were only a few living bodies left they stayed as clusters and inhabited these bodies.

As for Xenu, the Loyal Officers finally overthrew him and they locked him away in a mountain on one of the planets. He is kept in by a force-field powered by an eternal battery and Xenu is still alive today.


I beleive that should answer all you questions while we will never have world peace. Now don\'t question it or Tom Cruise will get you.

Def more violent.  And the violence of today pales in comparison to that of tomorrow.

I think even if humans found some kind of unlimited, inexpensive, completely green energy source, we\'d still find a reason to go to war.

yea, fostering peace and compassion and escaping from the chains of violence (both physical and mental) on a personal level is pretty damn difficult.  I don\'t see how any of us could expect world peace to come about if we haven\'t done this already.

Humans create their own suffering and reality.  It\'s as simple as forgiveness and cultivating love.  By remaining submerged in fear and ignorance, people will continue to play out the same dramas over and over again.  As hard as personal work is (and it\'s the hardest thing anyone will ever have to do), it\'s the only way to escape this insane illusion. If more people did it then it wouldn\'t be so damn difficult.... And so it goes.
Free me from vices, free me from fear.. Free me from anything that keeps me from here.
