What is our globe like? What are we like? What kind of future forecasts do we have? How do we take care of our old people? Education? Jobs? Do we still like to live at all?

Frankly, I think World War 3 will take away all those pondered thoughts. In general all the Biblical prophecies and predictions are happening right now, here. The wars, natural disasters, plagues, undisciplined countries with weapons of mass destruction,world hunger, even swarms of locusts destroying crops and darkening the skies. I don't think of what lies ahead of us because if I do it will only be based on pure speculation and I don't want to get my hopes up believing that we're going to have a better future. When the day comes when we are forced to tattoo bar codes ( UPC ) on our foreheads or wrists so we can continue to make purchases, like the things we enjoy now, I.e: food, clothes, homes, cars, medical care, etc, then that will be the sign of the beginning of the end, o take my faith seriously and discard all my material belongings and follow God. As it stands, my faith is very weak, I'm confused and do not know what to believe anymore. With so many contradictions, conflictions, the true definition of evil and where it flourishes in our societies, I.e: Politics, Religion, Atheism, organized religion, etc. We won't know until it's too late. So if your a true believer who stumbles once in awhile, take off those bulky boots and walk the path of righteousness in your bare feet. Because when you get to heaven God will put a nice pair of comfortable slippers on your feet. Peace.

Less flora and fauna. More divided on values than ever. Change or perish. The state pretends to care but money wins in the end, more people choose euthanasia as the need to express autonomy becomes noticable in older populations. If i remember very soon there will be more older people than there are younger people. The job market will see less young people entering and more peolpe chosing to work past retirement age. There is a case in court now where someone is challenging the fact they HAVE to leave their job on the grounds of age. It is very discriminatory.

"What is our globe like?"
it will still be round.
"What are we like?"
older. hopefully wiser.
"What kind of future forecasts do we have?"
none of any reliability. We can't even get the weather right. In the mid-80s, no one forsaw the end of the Cold War so quickly. in 2000, noone forsaw 9/11.
"How do we take care of our old people?"
Soylent Green.
"Education?"
If we still take the production-line approach, it will continue to plummet.
"Jobs?"
Depends on the economy and technology of the time - and fuel and inflationary factors.
"Do we still like to live at all?"
It beats the alternative.

Europe will be a part of the greater caliphate, run by the mullahs in Iran. Commie china will reach true superpower status and will be a greater threat to the US than today, and will probably take Taiwan. We will still be under virtual attack by invading illegal aliens, and will be probably 50% mexican by then.
In other words, we are screwed, unless we take decisive military action in the middle east (tehran and damascus need to disappear NOW) and tell china where to go. And forget all the multi-culti bull and get back to being AMERICANS.
otherwise, we won't have to worry about jobs, education, or old people. we will only worry about survival.

Its exciting to take a position, although the in elementary words element you ought to be confident of is that there'll be surprises thrown in alongside the way. a huge warfare? an major assassination or 2? perhaps fowl Flu wipes out 2/3 of the inhabitants. you will discover a vogue line going alongside indefinitely and picture its genuine attempting to project that vogue into the destiny, yet then some vast replace comes alongside and its an entire new ball recreation. Even some significant invention we gained't imagine now...imagine how human beings in 1935 ought to have imagined the international of 1955. yet in case you project recent tendencies without accounting for the unforseeable adjustments which will ensue, the U.

Aww, don't you worry none.
The Doomsday Prophets have been going on for millenia.
Heard tell that the Jews have now given up on their Messiah.
It's just a matter of time before all the others fade away, too.
Merry Christmas.

We shouldn't worry about that now. Just do what you can to take care of our world today and we can worry about the future when it comes.
