End of Ze World (originally published Facebook on March 18)
Ok, but in all seriousness. . . .
I was on the train on my way to my internship in NYC yesterday. . .and it so happens it was St. Patrick's Day. So the car is filled with college-age students all dressed in green whose conversations revolved around alcohol and their drunken St. Patty's day memories. . .well, drunk stories in general.
But the part that caught my attention is they started talking about the weather. . .and one girl pipes up "I swear, the world is going to end soon!" and then they all continued on talking about getting drunk.
All I could think, wow, they are anticipating the end of the world, and yet, either they do not understand the magnitude of that event, or they don't really care, because although, sure, assuming the world is ending soon, they are going to go right ahead living destructive lives.
It's really sad to realize so many people think that what they do here doesn't really matter, and don't really know/understand/care what's going to happen when Jesus comes back. . .
