I lived through the "population bomb" that was guarranteed to go off in the 90's and create mass hysteria, also made it through few financial meltdowns like the savings and loan debacle, and the collaps of Enron along with rolling blackouts in California. I get somewhat scared by every one that comes along. Y2K had me genuinely worried, I even hoarded food. But the whole time I try to rember two things: 1. God is sovereign 2. The mortality rate for humans is %100. So why do I ever worry?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11607288418709850612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12673242.post-87098581393480628972008-09-10T22:13:00.000-05:002008-09-10T22:13:00.000-05:00Ah yes PHYSICS at it's best!

But everybody who is not a physicist likes to imagine they understand it a bit and jump to crazy conclusions. the black holes that might be formed (and most physicists would be thrilled if they were) are tiny, nothing strong enough to pull in a fly, let alone mass of the earth. It's similar to the fear that man will replace God because scientists can modify a tomato with genetic manipulation(20 years ago people really were afraid of this happening!) The only thing I feel bad about is that 10billion dollars is spent on it that could help to feed the hungry and cure the sick.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
