I think you have a point. I watched the terminators the other week and It really scared me. Then I watched true lies with the angry terrorist with the nuclear bomb and that scared me even more. Because world destruction is just another A-Bomb away. When America first unleashed Mr H-Bomb on Japan nobody had the technology to retaliate. Now so many countries have it, and all of them have twtichy fingers

Take this for example. Some rouge terrorist gets a dirty A-bomb from the old russian regime. They detonate it in Texas or something. America are going to retaliate at the first target it deems responsible. Let's take Kabul. This pisses of more terrorist organisations so they try harder to retaliate, in the mean time, America are busy bombing the **** out of every terrorist state. European nations get worried and put their missiles on alert. And from there it can go **** up really easily!

Oh you asked about Alzheimers. Memory isn't restricted to one part of the brain, you store long term and short term memories in different places, and also the nature of long and short term memories are different. Short term memories are just neural routes in your brain which can be stimulated easily for a short while after they have been activated. However if you don't keep stimulating that route then you will forget it and that route won't be easily stimulated.

An example, you come back from work and drop your keys on the couch. You go into the kitchen and make a cup of tea but need to get something out the car. Now because you did the action of dropping the key a neural pathway was created in your brain which signalled your brain 'i dropped the keys on the couch'. Now as long as the neural route was fairly stimulated, then it's easy for your brain to recreate the route. If you however waited say 2 hours that neural route would not have been stimulated and trying to remember would be difficult since the neural route associated with dropping the keys may not be strong. - That's short term memory

In long term memories, the brain for whatever reason continually stimualted a particular route. When a neural route is stimulated in a large way (for example you see a man being shot) or you learn to read, then the brain saves the necessary information in a part of the brain where it can easily be accessed again since it is deemed important. Childhood memories are saved by the brain because during this time the brain is developing and retains more information than adults can (see learning a new language when your 30!). Somewith with Alzheimers therefore have difficulty accessing certain parts of the brain because those parts are in effect being destroyed (those of short term memory) whilst long term memory areas are left alone.

If you're interested in this stuff definately go buy a book called "the man who mistook his wife for a hat". Ignore the first chapter and go straight to the doc's experiences. It's a really scary book which is told by a neuro doctor and you can see how different parts of the brain do different things!

I certainly do! The "signs and wonders" that Revelation spoke of are coming to pass every day! A man named Hal Lindsey wrote a book about the Rapture in the early 1980's in which he detailed 20 events that HAD to occur before the Rapture could take place, based solely on the Word of God's prophecies. I counted from news sources and personal research that 18 of the 20 have already occurred! So, we are closer even than WE think!

Look back at history, not much changes, just more people. There has been as much hate in the past but now even the smallest group gets news coverage

No, but it seems that it might be end of rational thinking for a while until people get their heads screwed back on the right way round.
