Read this today in the Bible

Isaiah 24:1-3 NIV See, the Lord is going to lay waste the earth and devastate it; he will ruin its face and scatter its inhabitants— it will be the same for priest as for people, for the master as for his servant, for the mistress as for her servant, for seller as for buyer, for borrower as for lender, for debtor as for creditor. The earth will be completely laid waste and totally plundered. The Lord has spoken this word.

Global warming, MAD, political polarization, overdue caldera, plastics, rise of the oligarchy, loss of personal property rights, solar flares, extraterrestrial objects, I’m tired of listing but I’m sure I’ve missed a bunch.

Perhaps it’s meant to be. Maybe the scale has tipped too far in the wrong direction. Humans haven’t existed very long on a global scale, but already we’ve left scars.

The Bible went on and said,

Isaiah 24:5-6 NIV The earth is defiled by its people; they have disobeyed the laws, violated the statutes and broken the everlasting covenant. Therefore a curse consumes the earth; its people must bear their guilt.

SIDE NOTE: If a post on “unpopular opinions” gets 87% downvotes, does that mean it’s truly unpopular, and therefore successful?

Or does that mean it’s being downvoted because it’s actually a popular opinion?

    To be fair, most Christians aren’t “end of the world” doomers. Just the more extreme ones like Jehovah witnesses.

    I think overall, this is an unpopular opinion.
