Hard to see.. the future is. Always in motion it is.... impossible to see.

Well, i'm already used to the way people reacts when i express my
opinion on these matters... I usually shock or surprise more than one
listener... but i have this belief that the world as we know it (meaning
economic structure, country borders, tech, etc) will cease to exist
(or at least mutate dramatically) somewhere in the next 200 to 300
years. My great-grandchildren are probably going to live to see it, 
unfortunately for them...

The US-american president is just a symptom. If he were not to scare
you, something else would. Personally, i don't give a rat's ass about him.
But the world is scary these days anyway. It's the change. We 
weak, pathetic humans do not like change, and those of us
who get troubled by these matters are starting to feel it in the water...
to feel it in the earth... to smell it in the air. Much that now is, will be
lost, for none will live who remember...

No, wobo, you do not "wish" to be religious. You just wish there
were nice and easy answers, just like religions are thought out to give.

It would probably be very comforting to be able to believe

"I don't care if tomorrow I get a nuke dropped right on my head.
 I know my soul will go to God."

Well, I say i've got this one life, and i fscking wanna keep it because
i don't know what comes next. As far as i know, there is no "next"
and it would be illogical to assume there is.

Personally, i hope he'll not be stupid enough to make the kind of decision
we all fear. Let us hope.
