Are you realist? Most of you would like think you are.
A realist tries to be guided by provable facts. He wishes to avoid being deluded by unrealistic dreams or impractical ideas.
The truth is, the world situation today is out of human control. Politicians cannot control the nuclear arms race or the spreading pollution threat. Civic leaders cannot control the crime explosion. Economists cannot solve the problems of inflation or declining production, and life for hundreds of millions of people is degraded and hopeless.and now... the pandemic.
The shocking truth is, there is a well-founded doubt as to whether the human race will survive much longer.
The Bible foretold this situation, and showed the main reason for it. It says that men would be “lovers of themselves, lovers of money, self-assuming, haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, disloyal, having no natural affection, not open to any agreement, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness, betrayers, headstrong, puffed up with pride, lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God.” (2 Timothy 3:1-4) Is it any wonder the world is in such a bad situation when it is filled with people like that? Surely, things will never improve until people improve. Now, science cannot improve people’s nature. Can anyone? Yes, God can.
If the world were full of people following godly principles (not people who merely claim to be Christians), then most of today’s problems would be solved. And that is exactly what is going to happen. “Just a little while longer, and the wicked one will be no more . . . But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth, and they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.” (Psalm 37:10, 11).
Is it an unrealistic hope? Well, we know that men are ruining the environment of the earth and are close to destroying the human race. Hence, relying on men is unrealistic,and you lot on here well you haven't learnt what life is about.

goodlife,
\\ If the world were full of people following godly principles (not people who merely claim to be Christians), then most of today’s problems would be solved.//
how do you account for this?
World population (approx) @ 2020. 7,633,292,332
world religion (approx) @ 2020. 5,994,943,815
ungodly (in your eyes) 1,638,338,517.
So who exactly is causing all the mayhem?

Good life makes a good point.
Politicians spew platitudes about how they will look after us by solving the massive problems we confront, as if there is a road back to normality.
There isn't. We have crossed the Rubicon, there is no going back, and the problems the world faces are beyond solvable.
Not only will the present problems persist, but will get worse, and then new problems will come along as well to add to the mix.
Tomorrow won't be much different to today, and the day after the same, bit slowly and surely, like being attacked by a python, the grip will intensify, and little by little, the worlds problems will intensify.
Added to the mix of chronic problems, will be new acute problems, unexpected and unforseen, lime a sudden hit from a bomb.
Its really funny listening to politicians and the chattering classes, asserting positivity, and so many taking comfort in their comforts and baubles.
A crash, bigger than anything else is coming, with shortages and a breakdown in society as we drift further into anarchy.
Am I deluded?
No!
I see more clearly now than I have ever done before.

Theland, you're like the voice of doom. What joy do you and your cohorts actually bring to this world? None that I can see. And this is all because you are afraid to face the inevitable ..... death. You carry on living in gloom if that's what you want but do us all a favour and stop inflicting your misery on the rest of us. It's enough to give anyone the hump!
