No, it's not in the Bible.
The book Out of Control—Global Turmoil on the Eve of the Twenty-First Century. The author is Zbigniew Brzezinski, former head of the U.S. National Security Council. He writes: “The onset of the twentieth century was hailed in many commentaries as the real beginning of the Age of Reason. . . . Contrary to its promise, the twentieth century became mankind’s most bloody and hateful century, a century of hallucinatory politics and of monstrous killings. Cruelty was institutionalized to an unprecedented degree, lethality was organized on a mass production basis. The contrast between the scientific potential for good and the political evil that was actually unleashed is shocking. Never before in history was killing so globally pervasive, never before did it consume so many lives, never before was human annihilation pursued with such concentration of sustained effort on behalf of such arrogantly irrational goals.”
How true !!
The surprise though is the fact that the Bible did foretell these things in such verses as Matthew 24, Luke 21, Mark 13 and 2 Timothy 5 1-5

The Age of Reason occured in Europe long after the Bible was a closed book.
Thomas Paine wrote a book caled "The Age of Reason" that says a lot about the Bible. I strongly recommend it!
