Okay, I know it's a day late, but I thought it prudent to wait until the dreaded doomsday was fully over before I aired my views. So we survived again. Maybe not totally unexpected. Yes, folks. It means all the bills will still have to be paid. The Christmas madness will still prevail.
It sometimes makes me think we should put paid to this madness once and for all. We had a similar anticipation of dread with Y2K - wondering if the world might be thrown back to the dark ages at midnight Dec 31st 1999.
Nothing happened - or hardly did.
We didn't grind to a halt. On New Year's Day 2000 it was business as usual, pretty much. There were a few glitches, but nothing that might constitute anything like the disaster predicted. Looks like pretty much the same here. Nibiru didn't hit us. The poles didn't shift, although I'm sure there'll be some wacko who claims they did and we just didn't notice! And I'm sorry, that's what they are. Wacko. When you have primary school children scared out of their wits, because they have overheard conversations, or seen media reports about this stuff, then we have to take notice. There are of course, some who are seeing this as a business opportunity, manufacturing underground bunkers at $75000 a time. When there is a growing spirit of fear, those who have the means will certainly spend the money to save themselves. But the question is, just what kind of a world are they going to come out of their expensive holes into? In this case it sounded like potential Armageddon. So who really would want to live in a world like that?
It all boils down to fear and the futile desire to hang onto this life as long as we can - even if it means living in a nuclear wasteland. That's one thing I possibly agree with David Icke on: the procuration of fear. If there is some sinister New World Order rising up, they are certainly using mass fear as a tool to cause unrest and unease on a constant basis. This will not be the end of it for sure. We have survived this 'prophecy', but there will be others, promising world destruction. And they will ridicule religion as the opiate of the masses. Yet I think for many, holding to a Biblical view on this matter probably helped men and women see it with a more informed eye.
The truth is, we know less than we think, about or world, the universe, about ourselves. Theories abound concerning every mystery, putting forth answers that could very well be wrong - and probably are. If the Earth is just a pool ball in the middle of a table, halfway through a game, then we have cause to worry. For me I believe there is order in the universe, upheld by God Himself. The only danger we have right now, is from ourselves.
