Know the Times

Are you aware of just how significant an era you live in?

Kevin Kelly from WIRED MAGAZINE described just how significant this whole Internet thing is. And you and I are alive at its birth.

We don't know just how much time we have left on this planet. One day the Lord will return and all will be judged and burned and none of this will matter...

BUT...

until that day, from a human perspective, regarding human history, we are at an historical crossroads, and a MAJOR one at that. (Kelly calls it an "axial point".) The kind that come along only once every couple of thousand years.

He takes too many pages to get to the point, so I'll just point you to page 5.

Go in peace.
