The future continued...

...Eschatology is the study of the end of the world. or the study of
theories about the end of the world. I am sitting here watching a
television show about the antichrist.How moch of.our worldview, our
psychological makeup is a function of christian theology? Or
christian eschatology? what is going to happen when the majority of
the world abandons this mythology in favor of reality? We are beyond
future sbock.

the future...

the future seems to have tumbled out of the boxand spilled on the
floor. It is a human future indeed, as every day I encounted the fear
and sense of deminishment that grips every day people in the face of
technology. We face a future that is unstable. Note, I didn't say
"uncertain", I said unstable. the difference being that we can no
longer count on our automatic grace. Not that we are in a position to
face the truth but if truth be told we all know that there is nothing
awaiting us in the mist of tomorrow but the results of our own
actions, or lack thereof. No judgement, no redemptiom, only the blank
page. If humanity fails to choose a future, one will be choosen for
us.

a quick post

I am writing tbis on my new Cingular 8125 PDA phone. It's a digital
camera, a video camera, a windows pc, a cellular telephone and has a
keyboard (fairly usable) and connects to the internet via a nearly DSL
class connection that is always on. This would be an example of the
kind of thing that I have been on about.
