"I'm looking forward to Armageddon and looking forward to the cleansing of the Earth."

So peace indicates end-time huh? WOW!

Can we get a working, sustainable colony on Mars going? I've got a few hundred bucks to donate. Get me off this rock.

If you want to understand this phenomenon, consider that most of these middle-American apocalypse-craving loons live in what I call "generica." Endless, soul-crushing, artistically devoid, hideously ugly automobile slums. Places like... oh... Independence, Kansas. :)

I've lived in such a place before. I don't find the psychology of craving the apocalypse all that mysterious.

What we have created in America with our White Castle and Chuck-E-Cheeze and other neon abominations is a cultural fever swamp. Ideas such as these fester there.; 9:43 PM

Independence, *Missouri*. ;-) But yes -- we're on the same wavelength. We've created a milieu that's not worth preserving, so why not attach oneself to the higher calling of a malignant belief system?

I'm out of Independence, thank goodness. I was beginning to lose my mind.; 11:48 PM
