What Do Many Fear?

[goodlife]

You don’t have to be a religious believer to think that we’re headed for disaster.

[Zacs-Master]

Nope, just a glass half full pessimist.

[ToraToraTora]

perhaps you could expand on what "disaster" you think we are heading for.

[andy-hughes]

But it helps ....

[naomi24]

I don't know why you're worrying about it, Goodlife. According to you, you're not headed for disaster so you'll be ok. Personally, I'll take what comes. I'll die and that will be that.

[andy-hughes]

Naomi - it is not often that you and I agree without a hint of argument, but here, we do.

[Old_Geezer]

Some folk are always assuming disaster is just around the corner. They're made that way. And some are even right.

[goodlife]

You are poor lot, but your right who Cares.
Based on the long history of disaster.(2 Pet. 3:9)

[ToraToraTora]

ah religion! right oh!

[Togo]

Off course we are headed for disaster.........the Sun will eventually burn out.

[jourdain2]

As Togo says, of course we are eventually heading for disaster. I heard a programme some time ago which explained in graphic detail that the core of the Earth was expanding irredemiably and that eventually the whole planet would blow open. It was very scientific and serious. Goodlife, Revelations contains many prophecies, calm down, please.

Goodlife, //....who Cares//

There you are. Worries all gone. :o)

[wildwood]

What I fear most is two things. Ever having to bury one of my children, and the probability that when I eventually get old(er) I become infirm and - heaven forbid - am forced through circumstances to live in an incapacitated condition where continued assistance will be required. I highly value my independence and would be devastated is either were to happen.

If I was to adhere to your religious beliefs, I could blame your omnipotent diety.

[Cloverjo]

I agree with Wildwood. I would also add that becoming homeless is one of my worst fears.

[david small]

I fear the callousness of a society that is entrapped by fear and corruption. Corralled like cows to be fleeced and milked by unscrupulous companies and dubious governmental precedents Where materialistic desires overcome compassion, where selfishness is tolerated as a survival necessity. Where common decency is supplanted by an I'm alright jack attitude. I fear the now.

What Do Many Fear?

The thought of getting stuck in a Lift with a pious JW does it for me!

[waterboatman]

Closing time.

[douglas9401]

I fear the Borg. We all must know by now that resistance is futile.

[1ozzy]

I fear that you Goodlife may one day knock on my door expecting me to be civil whilst you dribble and preach your beliefs.

Because I don't want to be arrested for committing a horrendous crime.

[GenuineclAss]

I always thought Bjorn Borg seemed such a nice chap, Dougie? Is his range of underwear so threatening to you?
