Office jobs and white-collar jobs are disappearing while more jobs for McDonald's are opening up. The GDP and average national income will drop.

America is declining only because it has rejected the rule of God's law. However, since there is a greater percentage of true Christians in America than almost anywhere else, America will still be a power in the world.

China and India, I assume, although I haven't been to either country. The sleeping dragons have been waking up for a while.

Biblethumper: thank you for making my day. Laughing

By that criteria, Ireland in the 1950s should have ruled the world.

The sad truth is this isn't truth. Look at Dallas, TX. It has the highest concentration of Christians in all of the US. But it's probably one of the worse cities to live in. Look at all of its major indexes and you will see that though Christians love God...they generally don't love their fellow people or environment.

My people die for a lack of knowledge. It has happened in the past and its going to happen again if their isn't a huge restoration of truth to the wider body of Christ.

Fiveeagles writes some of the best posts of any of us on here. They're usually very short, but very deep. Plus, he's one of the rare Christians who comes across as a student of the teachings of Jesus.
