Is the human adventure ending ?


             We will realize -perhaps too late - that the most important

    " news "  lately is not the front page stuff, the war against terrorism,

    the wickedness of one Mayor Vincent " Buddy "  Cianci, the sex-lives of

    the rich and famous. All that matters,of course, if the FUTURE can be

    counted on to be not much different  from the past.

                The most important news is that our garden flowers may soon

    evolve into " weeds " as a consequence of global warming. And global

    warming is a FACT -not just politically correct hysteria. And global

    capitalism cannot go on in the same old way - MORE AND MORE OF MORE AND

    MORE - without an ecological catastrophe.

               And overpopulation means that the flower of humanity -our

    real hope for the future - will also become as weeds in the fields.

                Our children will live as weeds of decay on a decaying

    planet. Imagine a future Pope exhorting the desperate poor of Mexico,

    or Africa, or India : KEEP THE BAMBINOS COMING !

                 Most pathetic of all are the best and the brightest who

    think they can ignore the fate of the whole world while planning a

    lucrative career in investment banking. A  MASTER OF BUSINESS in a

    world now best described by H.P.Lovecraft. All they can hope for in

    the end is a room of " Cool Air " !

                The tired face of the Pope is not just human waning. It is

    a symbol of millennial exhaustion. The same incantations, the same tired

    words of the ancient Holy Book.... the sacred rituals ... have lost

    their magic against the Demon Cosmos.

                 Dark Matter will soon triumph. The Black Hole is opening.

           The Divine Light is spent.... " Our Father who art in Yaganath.. "
