Democracy is not in the future of the world. People always demand a king. God wanted ancient Israel to have a representational republic with the leaders following Him through the words of His prophets but the people said give us a King. Nothing has changed. All the nations will demand their king and reap the consequences. The vast majority of the population of the world today is not ruled by a republic or a democracy and those people who think they are in a democracy are usually living under a great illusion. The whole world will soon choose a king the book of Revelation calls him the Beast.

Democracy – a flickering star?

In a survey of 24 countries by Pew Research Center, the nation that emerged as far and away first on Earth in the satisfaction of its people was China. No other nation even came close.

“Eighty-six percent of Chinese people surveyed said they were content with the country’s direction, up from 48 percent in 2002. … And 82 percent of Chinese were satisfied with their national economy, up from 52 percent,” said the Times.

Yet, China has a regime that punishes dissent, severely restricts freedom, persecutes Christians and all faiths that call for worship of a God higher than the state, brutally represses Tibetans and Uighurs, swamps their native lands with Han Chinese to bury their cultures and threatens Taiwan.

China is also a country where Maoist ideology has been replaced by a racial chauvinism and raw nationalism reminiscent of Italy and Germany in the 1930s. Yet, again, over 80 percent of all Chinese are content or even happy with the direction of the country. Two-thirds say the government is doing a good job in dealing with the issues of greatest concern to them.

And what nation is it whose people rank as third most satisfied?

Vladimir Putin’s Russia.

Moscow is today more nationalistic, less democratic and more confrontational toward the West than it has been since before the fall of communism. Power is being consolidated, former Soviet republics are hearing dictatorial growls from Moscow, and a chill reminiscent of the Cold War is in the air.

Contrast, if you will, the contentment of Chinese and Russians with the dissatisfaction of Americans, only 23 percent of whom told the Pew poll they approved of the nation’s direction. Only one in five Americans said they were satisfied with the U.S. economy.

Other polls have found 82 percent of Americans saying the country is headed in the wrong direction, only 28 percent approving of President Bush’s performance and only half that saying they approve of the Congress. In Britain, France and Germany, only three in 10 expressed satisfaction with the direction of the nation.

Liberal democracy is in a bear market. Is it a systemic crisis, as well?

There is going to be a documentary on HBO on Monday July 16th about China’s holocaust.

Let we just offer some thoughts while that critical world issue is on my mind. You can also find this and similar information on my website. (World trends section)

I have been saying that the male female imbalance in China, India and other Far East countries will make up much of the 200 million man army mentioned by Revelation that is prepared for a hour, day, a month, and a year to destroy one third of men on the earth. That army is this one and it will peak in about 25 years.

I say that because the first men of this surplus were born thirty years ago so they will be over 55 and become to old for the army by 2033. China also plans to stop this sex-selection imbalance by 2010. So the surplus male babies will be old enough for this army after 2025. So somewhere between 2025 and 2033 I expect this prophetic war but I also expect it to be when the surplus of men of fighting age peaks. So this means it will probably be closer to 2030-2033.

Also remember they come toward the end of the tribulation so just on this one prophetic event alone it looks like we have only about 15 years until the start of the seventy week of Daniel. I am one of the few that suspects the first seals and the rapture occur a few years before the seventy week because I think the Jews will fulfill it and that it actually starts with the sealing of the 144,000 Jews for their end time commission to preach the gospel of the coming kingdom as a witness. Then the end will come.

All other world trends that I document on my website link above points to the same time period. So expect the next decade to set the stage for all the events of the 70th week of Daniel that will be actually fulfilled in the 2022-2033 period. With that in mind time is getting very short because the rapture, the ride of the four horsemen, the coming persecution at the fifth seal could actually start in a decade.

Look at the world today in any direction that it is heading and you should see these things cannot go on!

China’s continuing 1-child holocaust documented

China’s coercive one-child policy has resulted in sex-selection abortions of some 40 million baby girls and leads to about 70,000 children being sold every year, reveals a new undercover documentary to be shown on HBO next Monday.

“China’s Stolen Children,” narrated by Ben Kingsley, was made by filmmakers posing as tourists and tells of the after-effects of the country’s strict population-control limit of one child per couple through the personal stories of several families.

Headed into its 30th year, the one-child policy is characterized as “the world’s largest experiment in social engineering.” It focuses on the plight of children sold out of fear of government punishment or stolen because of the nation’s unnatural shortage of offspring.

Because of the Chinese government’s obsession with being accepted as a member of the community of civilized nations, Beijing is portrayed as more interested in covering up the epidemic of child theft than in addressing the problem.

I wrote these articles on imminent dangers to the United States a couple of years ago and they are on my website but I think in light of the world and national situation and the fact that many do not read my website it may be appropriate to post a review to these articles on this blog.

Father Alphonse de Valk is one of the small minority of religious leaders that is speaking the truth about the fascist takeover in Canada and he is now being persecuted for it. Fascism is socialist state control over everything. It is obvious that Canada is now run by secular godless socialists. But it is also coming to the U.S. from the Left and it has already arrived in much of Europe. Not to mention the Chinese, Islamic and Russia fascism. Hitler and Stalin would be so proud of the world today.

Priest warns fascism has arrived in schools

In a column at Catholic Insight, de Valk writes under the headline “Fascism has come to Canada” that the Department of Education in British Columbia plans in September to “introduce the mandatory teaching of SSM [same-sex marriage] from kindergarten to grade 12 in provincial schools.

“It is a first for a province in Canada to claim the right to determine moral teaching in schools when the vast majority of its citizens reject it as unscientific and contrary to the common good,” he wrote.

“So we move from [former Prime Minister Pierre] Trudeau’s 1967 slogan ‘there is no place for the state in the bedrooms of the nation’ – falsely used to destroy traditional morality – to the new slogan that the state will determine people’s moral thinking.”

Further, he said, the Quebec Department of Education also intends, as of September, “to replace Christian Ethics in its schools with a secular mish-mash invented by its staff in which Judeo-Christianity is trivialized as only one religion among many.”

He said the “suppression” is called “normative pluralism.”

“Under this title the state dismisses parental rights and the formative role of Christian culture, and replaces it with secular sociology. Again, then, the temporal authority, the state, dismissed the spiritual authority and usurps its role. In history this is called ’statism,’ better known as fascism,” de Valk wrote.

“Some people may think that use of the term ‘fascism’ must be an exaggeration,” de Valk wrote. “Surely, Canada is not that far down the political slippery slope! But remember, fascism is little more than the political notion that the state – through its various organs – is the final authority in all things human.

“Several years ago, Canada’s chief justice claimed that she and the Supreme Court now take the place formerly allotted to the church. Today, some provincial departments of education as well as human rights commissions believe that they, too, share this authority,” he wrote.

The article gives the connection from eugenics to world population control. The power elite want the earth to have far less people for the sake of the environment. The people they really want to limit are what they consider the genetically inferior underclass. Many of the world birth control polices are toward that end. The common people are so misled or oppressed that they either are forced to submit like the people in China or they are “educated” to support quantity control through birth control and abortion like inner city blacks and the poor in the U.S.

Eugenics and Environmentalism: From quality control to quantity control

Population control today - and the corresponding environmental movements - grew out of the post WWII shift from eugenics to Malthusian programs. The line connecting eugenicists to population control is unmistakable. Population reduction is being used by the elite as a weapon of war against competition, as an assurance of continued domination.

Trips to Lourdes to cut time spent in purgatory - Telegraph: “Pope Benedict XVI is offering relief from purgatory to Roman Catholics who travel to Lourdes over the next year, the Vatican said yesterday.”

“Pilgrims to the shrine in south-west France will receive “plenary indulgences” from the Pontiff, which the Church says reduce the time spent being “washed” of sin after death. The indulgences will be available from this weekend until Dec 8, 2008″

My Bible tells me that Jesus washed away all my sin by the sacrifice He did at the Cross. Pope Benedict thinks that this is now his role as Governor of Purgatory.

For my Catholic readers. There is no purgatory, indulgences are a damnable heresy and Pope Benedict XVI is a demented old religious fool who appeals to silly old women and gullible superstitious people. Catholicism needs to return to true Christianity rather than to medieval doctrines of demented fools.

China population to reach 1.5 billion by 2033 - Yahoo! India News

BEIJING (Reuters) - The population of China, already the world’s most populous country despite its “one-child” policy, will grow to 1.5 billion people by 2033, with birth rates set to soar over the next five years, media said on Tuesday

Notice that China’s population will peak at the same time that the surplus men of the eastern nations will peak. These men will make up the 200 million man army out of the East spoken about in Revelation prepared for a year, a month, a day and a hour to march to the Middle East. At last count there was already about 160 million surplus men in the East.

WorldNetDaily: Collapse of civilization is near: “At this risk of sounding like a crazy person, I am driven to say I believe a civilizational collapse is near. Worse, I think it is too late to reverse. When this happens, abortion and population control will be major reasons why, alongside radical Islam. In fact, the three overlap and synergize one another. I’ve thought this for a while, but what has me more distraught than ever is this UNFPA report, which estimates the shortage of Asian women is actually 163 million, approximately the entire population of U.S. women, more than double UNICEF’s 2002 estimate of 74 million. “

Your not crazy, the collapse of civilization as we know is near. Many of these surplus men will make up the army of the 200 million out of the East in Revelation. There are 163 million surplus men now but there will be many more by 2030. By the time all the end time events play out the Bible says this surplus of men will change to men becoming rarer than gold.

China’s future: a nation of single men? - Los Angeles Times
Lanzhou exemplifies a more insidious, possibly more dangerous threat to China’s development than financial imbalances, environmental disasters or unemployment: The People’s Republic has too many men. Today, roughly 120 boys are born in China for every 100 girls, perhaps the worst gender imbalance in modern human history. Within 15 years, the country may have 30 million men who cannot find wives. That could mean serious trouble.

It is even worse than what is said here. This has been going on for decades. What we have here and in India and some other Eastern nations is the making of the 200 million man army from the East spoken of in Revelation. The nations will be glad to get rid of these men. If that were not to occur, by 2030-2040 China will be in revolution. This puts the date of the army prepared for a hour, day, month, and year in Revelation within the 2025-2040 AD period. That is when the surplus men of fighting age will peak.

BBC NEWS Asia-Pacific China to act on gender imbalance The Chinese government says it is drafting new laws to tackle the growing gender imbalance caused by the widespread abortion of female foetuses.
On Friday it was revealed that the eastern city of Lianyungang had the most skewed population. Among children under four years old, there are 163.5 boys for every 100 girls.
Ninety-nine cities had gender ratios higher than 125, state-run news agency Xinhua quoted the CFPA as saying in a report.

This is important in Bible prophecy because there will soon be a huge surplus of men of military age with no chance for a normal life. Ever since the 80’s China has been birthing a huge surplus of men. If they end the unbalance by 2010 like they have stated before. That generation will span from 1980 until about 2010 or 30 years. The last born of this surplus generation of men will be of military age by 2025 while the first of the generation will be still be young enough to be capable of fighting. This peak generation of disposable men will occur in the years between 2025-2035. Revelation talks about an army out of the East that will have 200 million men that was born for a specific time. The surplus men in 2025-2035 from China will be more than 100 million and they will be joined by other nations like India who also have surplus men to make up that unique army of 200 million men that was born for destruction.

This all occurs late in the seven year tribulation for Israel. So knowing that, we only have about two decades left before the tribulation begins.

China: Who Shall Watch the Watchers? - HUMAN EVENTS: “In “The Republic” Plato’s lead character, Socrates, describes a perfect society as being one where there is reliance on laborers, tradesmen and slaves. There is then a guardian class to protect the city and the question is put to Socrates, who will guard the guardians? Who shall watch the watchers? Plato’s answer was simply that the guards would guard themselves against themselves because they were inherently noble figures.”

That is where the world is heading and it is starting big time in China because the government already has all power in China. There is a time of war coming to the free world where governments will be given power over the people for security. In the coming surveillance society that will result we can ask who will watch the watchers? The answer will not be inherently noble figures, at least not for very long. Tyrants and control freaks will rise to watch the watchers who are watching us.

China Enacting a High-Tech Plan to Track People - New York Times “Data on the chip will include not just the citizen’s name and address but also work history, educational background, religion, ethnicity, police record, medical insurance status and landlord’s phone number. Even personal reproductive history will be included, for enforcement of China’s controversial “one child” policy. Plans are being studied to add credit histories, subway travel payments and small purchases charged to the card.

Security experts describe China’s plans as the world’s largest effort to meld cutting-edge computer technology with police work to track the activities of a population and fight crime. But they say the technology can be used to violate civil rights. The Chinese government has ordered all large cities to apply technology to police work and to issue high-tech residency cards to 150 million people who have moved to a city but not yet acquired permanent residency.

Both steps are officially aimed at fighting crime and developing better controls on an increasingly mobile population, including the nearly 10 million peasants who move to big cities each year. But they could also help the Communist Party retain power by maintaining tight controls on an increasingly prosperous population at a time when street protests are becoming more common.

“If they do not get the permanent card, they cannot live here, they cannot get government benefits, and that is a way for the government to control the population in the future,” said Michael Lin, the vice president for investor relations at China Public Security Technology, the company providing the technology.

Sounds like they are already installing a system in China where one will not be able to buy or sell with something similar to the Mark of the Beast. Which proves how swiftly and easily it can be done today once government decrees that it will be done.

China could flex economic muscles against the U.S. (OneNewsNow.com): “‘China has indicated that war is inevitable. When you’ve got North Korea [and] you’ve got the Taiwan situation, any of those things can actually be an advantage to China and a disadvantage to the U.S.,’ says Kenworthy. He states that China is in a strong position to make a military move on Taiwan or anywhere else it wants and can confront the United States at a time that it chooses.”

FrontPage magazine.com :: War Crimes by Jamie Glazov: “Patterson: The bottom line is the Left in this country only wins when America loses. Its a tried-and-true principle founded in the anti-war efforts of Vietnam and the 1960s. To bring down ‘the man’ during Vietnam meant to oppose your country and side with the Communist enemies we faced in North Vietnam, the Soviet Union, North Korea, China and Cuba. The U.S. military never lost a battle throughout the Vietnam War but mainstream media, anti-American radicals and defeatist Democrats colluded to lose the war any way. The Left successfully parlayed the international humiliation and defeat of Vietnam in political capital in Washington, DC and, as a result, elected a radical House and Senate in 1974 and Jimmy Carter to the presidency in 1976.

An almost identical scenario is playing out today. Democrats, and their allies on the Left, have entered into an informal alliance with Islamofascism. They retook the House and Senate last year based on their anti-war, anti-Bush positions. Their hopes to regain the White House in 2008 hinge on turning Iraq and the greater global war against Islamofascism into defeat. They never offer a platform or strategy to address national security or the War on Terror, only a constant drum beat of negativity and defeatism.”

“War Crimes” is a book that explains the treason that comes from the Left. The Left can only gain power when this nation loses.

My view is that the Left power brokers will do anything including treason to gain that power. Their allegiance is not to the United States, it is to a socialist world order run by those who believe they are the enlightened rightful rulers of this world. They are a self rightious delusional people who see themselves as God’s gift to save the world.

Asia Times Online :: China News - Ready, aim, fire and rain: “The farmers are part of the biggest rain-making force in the world: China’s Weather Modification Program.

According to Wang Guanghe, director of the Weather Modification Department under the Chinese Academy of Meteorological Sciences, each of China’s more than 30 provinces and province-level municipalities today boast a weather-modification base, employing more than 32,000 people, 7,100 anti-aircraft guns, 4,991 special rocket launchers and 30-odd aircraft across the country.

‘Ours is the largest artificial weather program in the world in terms of equipment, size and budget,’ Wang said, adding that the annual nationwide budget for weather modification is between US$60 million and $90 million. “

China always goes to extremes and I do not doupt that they will here also. What happens when they take their weather modification programs too far and it impacts the climate of other nations? For example, it might not be hard to cool the earth by releasing certain gases into the ionosphere or certain chemicals in the oceans. Will that be China’s answer to global warming rather then controlling the industrial output that the West demands? If they did do such an experiment what would be the long term consequences to weather and food production on earth? Could it cause the biblical famines of Revelation? Who might go to war with China over it? What if Russia actually wanted the earth to be warmer while China was determined to make it cooler. Would we see large scale weather wars? Is it really wise to mess with climate patterns when we know so little about the long term consequences?

Economy to struggle as baby boomers retire - Nation/Politics - The Washington Times, America’s Newspaper: “‘It is not normal for a society to age,’ he said. He expects the change to be ‘dramatic’ and even ’sudden’ in the next four years as a sharp increase in retirements starts to impact the economy in Minnesota, where experience mirrors the nationwide trend.

The tide of aging workers and retirees is not just an American phenomenon. It is sweeping the globe and promises to be a challenge even in fast-growing economies like China in a few decades. The primary reasons the population is aging are that people have fewer children and live longer due to better health care.

The populations of Europe and Japan are getting older even more rapidly than the U.S., and those countries face more immediate problems in supporting massive retirements and maintaining economic growth. Japan’s growth and population peaked in 1990 and have been mostly stagnant since then.”

Societies through birth control, abortion and debt have created huge problems for themselves. They will soon see that the young will not fund the old in their retirement. The old have amassed huge national debts and entitlement debts that the young cannot and will not pay off. The future of the world is not Utopian for 2010 to 2035. Instead those living in it will be living in very perilous times.

Cry for me, Pakistan - Nation/Politics - The Washington Times, America’s Newspaper: “For six years, Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf has been in deep denial about Taliban’s privileged sanctuaries in the mountainous border areas between Pakistan and Afghanistan. When he signed a pact with border tribal leaders in North Waziristan last Sept. 5, he said they had agreed to keep both Taliban guerrillas and their al Qaeda allies from fomenting further trouble. Several hundred Taliban and al Qaeda members captured since 2001 were released.

In reality, this was a face-saving device to allow the Pakistani army to stand down. It had lost some 700 men killed and 2,500 wounded in a campaign fought under U.S. pressure.”

The West soon could be in a much much worse situation than Iraq. Pakistan is providing a hot bed for Islam terrorists and these terrorists are exporting cell groups all over the world. The only solution will be a NATO attacks on these areas of Pakistan. The free reign of Islamo-fascism in Pakistan could also bring in India and maybe China. Police state powers will have to be put in effect in the West to deal with the cells already in our countries. It is not a pretty picture for the near future.

WorldNetDaily: ‘Mideast war this summer’
‘Mideast war this summer’Syrian official threatens ‘resistance’ by September, warns Damascus preparing for large-scale conflict
Posted: July 8, 20073:32 p.m. Eastern
By Aaron Klein© 2007 WorldNetDaily.com
Syrian President Bashar Assad
GOLAN HEIGHTS – If Israel doesn’t vacate the strategic Golan Heights before September, Syrian guerillas will immediately launch “resistance operations” against the Golan’s Jewish communities, a top official from Syrian President Bashar Assad’s Baath party told WND.
The Baath official, who spoke on condition his name be withheld, said Damascus is preparing for anticipated Israeli retaliation following Syrian guerilla attacks and for a larger war with the Jewish state in August or September.

He claimed Syria has “proof” Israel is also readying for a war.
“We hear about special Israeli trainings to take Damascus. We see that Israel is re-establishing bases of the Israeli army in the Golan that are unusual and not needed except for war. We believe the Israeli government has an interest in confronting Syria to rehabilitate its image of losing to Hezbollah,” he said.

According to security officials, recent U.S. intelligence estimates also predict a strong possibility of war between Israel and Syria in the coming months.
Dennis Ross, the American Middle East envoy under the Clinton administration, said this weekend in an interview with Ynetnews, a leading Israeli news website, he thinks “there is a risk of war” between Israel and Syria this summer.
“Nobody has made any decision (about going to war), but the Syrians are positioning themselves for war,” said Ross.

I also expect a war on or before Rosh Hashanha (Sept 12- 13). It is forty years from the six day war in 1967 when Israel conquered these lands. I think prophecy students should be aware that a forty year cycle event is more likely than not. If Syria uses WMD it could mark the fulfillment of the end of Damascus prophecy that has never yet been fulfilled. Of course, any war with Iran or Syria would end up with a war on both. This could set the stage for a Period of peace in Israel that Ezekiel 38 and 39 indicates will be in place before the Gog invasion.

I have no biblical proof for this but I think starting in Septemeber we could see a few years of war that crushes Islamo-Fascism followed by a decade or three of regional peace, reasonable energy prices, the rise of the EU, Babylon, Russia and China followed by the Ezekiel war, the biblical Antichrist and the Revelation judgments. Stay alert.

FT.com / Asia-Pacific / China - US fears over China nuclear weapons: “The US is increasingly concerned about China’s deployment of mobile land and sea-based ballistic nuclear missiles that have the range to hit the US, according to people familiar with an imminent Pentagon report on China’s military.
The 2007 Pentagon China military power report will highlight the surprising pace of development of a new Jin-class submarine equipped to carry a nuclear ballistic missile with a range of more than 5,000 miles.”

Author: Christianity in America in ‘terminal decline’ (OneNewsNow.com): “So the Third World and China will lead a resurgence of biblical Christianity throughout the world, the author says. But on the other hand, he asserts, ‘the future for American Protestant denominations is bleak unless they are willing to go back to their founding principles, which have to do with the great gospel message that changes anyone who actually gets in touch with it.’”

The US is rapidly going the way of Europe

WorldNetDaily: Left behind – in more ways than one: “On page 45 of my 2005 book ‘Megashift,’ I mentioned my well-founded estimate that China then had 115 to 120 million born-again believers, counting Catholics and Protestants (house churches plus Three-Self, government-approved churches). Based on the new numbers from China Daily, I can announce with a good degree of confidence that the true number of born-again Christians in China today is 200 million, and perhaps a bit more. That comprises 15 percent of China – making it now the largest church in the world by far. ”

Like I also said in one of my articles. There are more true Christians in China then there are in our nation. American style Christianity is not even the norm in the world yet we think we are leading the world on a path to Christian enlightenment through unbiblical American Christian dominionism.

Putin’s new arms race - Commentary - The Washington Times, America’s Newspaper:

“Moscow is trapped in Cold War thinking. Mr. Putin and his policy advisers seem wedded to the concept of mutual assured destruction.
They still resent NATO’s expansion into countries they consider within Moscow’s sphere of influence, and bemoan the end of the ABM treaty they fought so hard to keep. With oil revenue pouring in, Mr. Putin apparently dreams of re-creating the Soviet empire, with China and Iran as key allies. He sees the United States, adding bases in Central Europe and the Middle East, as his main adversary. “

Aviation Week : BREAKING NEWS — Iran Set to Try Space Launch: “Iran has converted its most powerful ballistic missile into a satellite launch vehicle. The 30-ton rocket could also be a wolf in sheep’s clothing for testing longer-range missile strike technologies, Aviation Week & Space Technology magazine reports in its Jan. 29 issue.

The Iranian space launcher has recently been assembled and ‘will liftoff soon’ with an Iranian satellite, according to Alaoddin Boroujerdi, the chairman of the Iranian parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission.

The move toward an independent space launch capacity is likely to ratchet up concern in the U.S. and Europe about Iran’s strategic capabilities and intents. Orbiting its own satellite would send a powerful message throughout the Muslim world about the Shiite regime in Tehran.
U.S. agencies believe the launcher to be a derivation of the 800-1,000-mi. range Shahab 3 missile. A Shahab 3 fired from central Iran could strike anywhere in Israel, Saudi Arabia, the entire Persian Gulf region and as far west as southern Turkey.

There are concerns in the West that space launch upgrades, however, could eventually create an Iranian intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) with a range of nearly 2,500 mi., giving Tehran the ability to strike as far as central Europe, well into Russia and even China and India. “

After a highly ranked article I wrote on sexual perversion and another one I wrote on the polices in China just completely vanish out of the Google database my first thought was censorship. I do not know if that actually occurred but it certainly made me think about the subject. I now believe there will soon come a day when absolute truths expressed in the Bible will no longer be allowed to be posted on the Internet. I also believe that day will not be very far in the future, in fact, in China it is already occurring.

Internet censorship may first come by corporations
