Information about whats going on arond the world is more readily available so to us it seems that things of this nature are happening more frequently. I pretty sure generations before us thought that they are living in the last days.
There is nothing new going on in the world... we are just more exposed to it. This isn't the first time New Orleans was messed up by a ****, ****'s have hit places all across the world, and even tho we are fighting "wars" they are nothing near past wars in terms of casualties (WWI, WWII, Civil War, etc.. and those are just American Wars). I'm sure when they dropped that **** in Hiroshima people thought it was a wrap but the world is still going on.
Regardless... I still encourage folk to get a dose of "get right" and get their houses and lives in order because we never really know the hour, minute, the second that it'll all end.
