A good friend of mine insists this is THE issue of the next decade.

Please note that these scenarios are all projections based on past behavior. In other words, it assumes that people who are in grade school now will not provide for their own old age the same way every one always has by having children to take care of them.

The other thing that is never mentioned, in spite of al the information we get on Islamic countries these days, is that there is a 15% disparity between men and women in their populations according to UN statistics. We are so busy making nice that we don't note that they must be killing female babies.

I am genuinely fascinated by your comments. References please!

Anyone who would take a Bible passage seriously already understands that... these things need to be rephrased for the secularists not to reject them out-of-hand.

That's a lot of teen-age testosterone running wild!

Thanks for the advice but I disagree. Even unbelievers have the ability to see the truth. If they see truth in the Bible, so much the better.

WHO BUT CHINA could provide the 200 million footsoldiers described of in the Bible....they are making preparation.
Talk about producing violence and terrorism, there it is, and an already communist nation.

**WHO BUT CHINA could provide the 200 million footsoldiers described of in the Bible....**

An interesting take on this.

[BlackElk]

Your good friend is right.

**this is THE issue of the next decade.**

Could be, we are certainly headed that way with the secularist societies.

Ah the fruits of the Culture of Death. Isn't it heart-warming? (/sarcasm)

In 2050 Algeria will be importing muslims from France.

But I suspect a fair number of them will opt for the USA.
During the current French tussle about Muslim head-gear, I saw a Muslim student
in France say she wasn't worried about the matter, because..."I'm not staying here,
I plan to got to America.".

"Screw, or be screwed"
Why "or"? - Screw, AND be screwed anyway:
One is going to be screwed in any case, by taxes, wars or general economic depression/inflation, If everyone starts saving like crazy (say, 401k maximizing), then how much would a bread loaf cost if everyone, including supermarket bakers and clerks, was a millionaire?

Good post. Life Ping.

My new business plan. "Sheep Exporters. Inc. tm" or SHItm, specializing in the Asian and Indian markets. That or invest in rubber and latex manufacturers.

Also, in the bible a third of the population is wiped out. That could be interpreted to the coming decline due to family planning and abortions (UN thinks population will decline 1/3 by 2050 after peaking at 9 billion in 2025).

[LibertarianLiz]

Great. Millions of mate-less Asian males. A future of killing each other off?

My husband has been saying something like this for years. His fear is that China will get very belligerent because it has a lot of "cannon fodder".

[Let's Roll]

And to further fuel that disparity - the wealthiest men take multiple wives in ME societies - leaving an even larger bachelor population to be manipulated by islamo whackos.

Solid families are the basis of stability in all cultures.

I've always thought of this as happening with some natural phenomenon, major, major earthquakes, tsunamis, flooding, landslides, etc.
