I am no big reader of the bible or other religious texts, but as 2012 year creaks to an end, we face circumstances which seem to be more “end times” than I can ever remember. The effects of human existence on the environment seem to suddenly have produced weather patterns that were unthinkable a few years ago. Neighborhoods in New York disappeared under water and fire during hurricane Sandy. And more and worse is predicted.
Globally, political madness seems everywhere. I saw Hillary Clinton on TV recently and she looks 20 years older than when she took on the job as Secretary of State. In the national arena, Congress seems as dysfunctional as it was before the recent elections, and there does not seem to be any hope that things will get better. If we avoid the present fiscal cliff, there will be something just as bad to come.
