Question For Atheists
34 Answers
Are you worried about the state of the world?
Directing this to those who dont have a religious faith to hold on to.
Did you imagine 10 years ago things would turn out like this.
We have Trump, Brexit, Islamic terrorism, climate change, Amazon rain forest on fire, Greenland ice cap melting, oceans clogged with plastic, widespread extinction of animal species
Wasn't humanity supposed to be getting better?
I believe we are very close to return of Jesus
I guess that's an opinion you take take or leave, but seriously Are you worried?

How does the above equate to
//I believe we are very close to return of Jesus//??
Is all of the above predicted in the Bible or something?
If so, please show me specific chapter and verse and I will consider it.
After many years of reading the Bible, I have yet to find a prophecy about climate change, the discovery of America (let alone Trump),
plastics, melting ice caps (or indeed the idea of ice caps themselves), Islam, animal extinction or forest fires, or anything else!

Humanity's destructive nature will only ever lead to a catastrophic conclusion. When someone highlights a cause, there are always people there denying it and shouting them down. We're in an age of dissent and I don't see it improving anytime soon.
Having said that, I think there is more chance of Theland converting to Islam than the second coming of Christ happening.

I would dearly love to invent an eco/animal-friendly substitute for plastic; I like Trump and Brexit; there is no answer to Islamic terrorism that would be acceptable to the western world – and short of abandoning our modern lifestyle there is no solution to the element of global warming that is man-made. I therefore see no point in actually ‘worrying’ about things that neither we - nor Jesus - can change.
Just as a by the bye, if Jesus could change it – him being God and all that – do you never wonder why he hasn’t don’t it?
