1. Demographics’, populations in rich western countries are shrinking as third world countries keep growing. This has already begun to create social challenges for governments across the globe. The worlds emigration problems and increase demand in energy has shown that this problem can shake the status quo between the rich and poor countries.
2. The global economy, as the cost of shipping goods around the world has decreased and the advantages to produce goods where labor is cheap has become the driving force in the worlds increasingly interlinked global economy has seen low inflation and low wages. This has been great for the skilled workers in wealthy countries and has created huge numbers of jobs third world countries. The hope is this will increase the standard of living in third world countries and keep goods cheap in wealthy countries. The flip side of that is that environmental and labor laws are less stringent in the most of the third world countries resulting in more pollution and near slave labor conditions in the this new plants as well as the lost jobs of unskilled workers in many western countries. It should be noted that the lost jobs are not just limited to skilled workers.
3. Nuclear Proliferation, in the last decade at least three new countries have been able to join the club of countries that have the nuclear bomb, India Pakistan and N. Korea. Will the UN be able to lead the world community to a peaceful solution or will it fail leaving the world to deal with many countries acquiring the bomb?

Men are being feminized, whole countries are losing their will to defend themselves and Christianity is losing its appeal to the masses. This is why you are seeing more sexual deviance, and more human cruelty and crime.
