I really don't expect it to happen, in fact I know it won't happen, but just maybe I was accused of something ( plagiarism ) by a few here that I was not guilty of?
Just a thought......

Thanks for your comments and hopefully all will be well in the Land of Oz now!!!! Lol.
Well historians would probably be better to answer that then me but from all the stats I can bring up of these issues, probably most things we see today that are not good has always happened. We've obviously invented things that are more deadly then anytime in the ...[text shortened]... em said the world changed after WW1. The earth they knew before that was never the same.
I have a hypothesis, but there is not much point pursuing it if it is flatly contradicted in the Bible.

Are you saying that there was no "number of view hits" before the internet? Is that your point?
Hardly ever does anyone condemn these things but actually encourage this action towards others and brag about it when they do these things.
Just look at the growth and popularity of cage fighting. That is horrible on all levels of "loving your neighbor". It only breeds violence and a total disrespect for life with our young ones.
This type of intertainment has happened in the past no doubt with many ancient nations such as in Rome, but that should have stayed in the past and not in our supposed progressed society.

Why don't you make some positive generalizations based on positive things? Why does it always have to be the doom and gloom?
Sorry but I don't understand you question?

Where does the Bible say this please?
Btw, you continually strike me as a closet JW or JW sympathiser, are you either?
The JWs have stubbornly held on to their 'Christ is returning in 1914' prediction by saying [after the date passed] to reduce the embarrasment that the world did actually come to an end and Christ did really not have to return but instead now rules since 1914 in heaven.
The funny thing is that Christ is now ruling, and since that time things have taken a nosedive .. so Christ made things worse after ruling for almost 100 yrs ..
Total nutcases those JWs.

Maybe the only reason you don't see the upbuliding and hopefull articles I post is you can't see them as in your heart is blinding you? Maybe huh?

Also to FMF. I arrived at the track at exactly 11:37. I sat in seat # 25 in section 8 and row 2.
I ate lunch at exactly 12:37 PM and then returned to my seat at 1:04.
I then left at 3:45 and arrived home at 4:10.
I thought I'd give you all the facts and to prove I really did that and didn't "plagiarise" this from someone else.
