The further Decline of Civilization....

....So much goes on. This process keeps evolving. We’re moving faster and faster towards the destruction of, not the world, not our species, but civilized life as we currently know it. Our corrupt governments run more and more rampant, and we can all clearly see the fallacy of the two party system. There is only one party in control, and they have shown that they answer to no higher authority. The signs point to global war, this seems in little doubt at this point. Current events show much of the decline of our civilization, our destruction of the planet, and the evil desires of the government. Its been quiet over here at the Greater Good, I realize. Am I sinking too deep into political paranoia, and not focusing enough on the magic, the spiritual? But with so much going on in this valley of the real, how can I avoid it? Without going into too much detail on each, here is your current events:

• 
• Government: Are we whipping the Middle East into such a frenzy that global war is sure to break out? You decide. We’re still ripping it up in Iraq, killing innocents and pregnant women now. And they are striking back in record numbers. Iran, and their nuclear capabilities, are stirring up such unrest with our government, they’ve now agreed to talks, but not under our conditions. When will we go to war with them? Seems imminent. Ask Lou Dobbs, its obviously all a mess over here too. At least more and more cities are voting to impeach our idiot in chief.
• The Earth: Cities are sinking, volcanoes are erupting, earthquakes and tornadoes show up more and more.
• People: are becoming more and more depraved. Murders are reaching new heights of depravity in our own backyard. The religious right are moving further towards terrorism, using biohazardous dirty bombs on porn stores. And Pat Robertson can leg press a ton at age 73.
• 
• Further signs of the apocalypse: Vishnu reborn? The egg came first? New species on the planet being discovered every day. Does this mean anything?
• 

As always, you be the judge.
