Choosing Model Nations to Set Examples
for
Achieving Sustainability*
John Cairns, Jr.
April 16, 2004
First Paragraph
"At one time, the US would have seemed the best choice for a model nation to set the example for achieving sustainability. If Americans lived sustainably, more resources would be available for use by less developed countries. However, playing the famous game of “What if?” makes the choice of the US as a model nation
even less persuasive."

He goes on to list about 20 "what ifs" that I have not posted.

Last Paragraph
“However, in the far recesses of the mind, two sobering "what ifs" remain. What if humankind continues its present unsustainable practices for the remainder of the 21st century? What if nature’s laws stop the exponential growth of the human population and its concomitant destruction of natural capital and ecosystem services? If humankind continues unsustainable practices until it finds the answers to these last two ‘what ifs,’ this collapse will demonstrate that the human mind was an evolutionary failure. One hopes that reason guided by evidence, compassion, and ethics will make these two ‘what ifs’ merely speculative visions.”

How does god, allah, or the buddha will land to a people based on belief when belief is so scattered in it's interpretation???
There it is.
No body is interpreting anything in the Christian Zionist movement. It is "Biblical Land" and that is all there is to it. How do I know? Well my Bible tells me so. G d gave it to the Jews and that is that.
But
Does anyone really know what time it is?
“Don't know where I am
Can't see past the next step
Don't have to think past the last mile
Have no time to look around
Just run around, run around and think why
Does anybody really know what time it is…”
