Even if there is no rational reason to have hope, you've got to find a way to get some.

From hope comes courage, and it's better to live courageously than in fear.

[Revi]

There is reason for hope as long as the sun comes up and there is water flowing in the streams. We are only living off this goo because it's easy. Humans are very adaptable. We can go back to living on sunlight again. Some of us already are.

Don't worry eating your fellow man won't be strange once everyone is doing it.

It will be considered normal

Sort of like punting babies, at first people frowned, but now it is turning into a national pass time.

There is no such thing as a "futureless time", there will always be a future.

As for this life, of course there is hope. I ain't dead yet.

For those who are losing hope, remember that pain is your friend. It lets you know you are still alive.

Yes. I hope that my family and those that I care about 'make it' successfully (ie: alive and healthy) through the Great Correction.

These are not futureless times. You just start seeing the longer view, is all.

Jesus is reason to hope. The Book of Revelation says that when God opens the seals and let's us have our way we ruin the earth, then He trumpets forth the standard and reminds us of the price that was paid (1/3 of everything dies, two witnesses come to remind us that God is a supernatural God, inhabiting some dimension that science struggles to percieve.) Then to wipe the slate clean he send seven angels to pour out bowls of wrath upon the kingdom which tried to control the world. He returns and peace finally reigns on earth. The only hope for the Earth is Jesus Christ.

The sun is up for a few more minutes every day from now until June 21st.

Some of my students mentioned the end of the world in 2012, and I told them that the Mayan calendar works in long cycles. The oft cited date of December 12th, 2012 is just the end of one cycle and the beginning of a new one.

We are going to have some hard times, that's for sure.

I don't think the world is going to end, however.

The cycles of the seasons are probably not going to stop.

The earth abideth.

My 7th generation grandfather was Abe Lincolns' grandfather and I'd bet he had some fears about the future (like what to feed his kids tomorrow) which we can't even imagine.

His grand kid turned out OK.

I'm thinking there is always a future, just not the one we imagine.


Prepare for the worst and hope for the best....
