’Marsageddon’ comet scenario adds to concerns about space threats

With asteroids seeming to be passing earth in greater numbers, a meteor exploding into a fireball over Siberia and unusual earthly phenomena, such as stormier weather patterns, more sinkholes swallowing homes and a man inside, plus a later one nearly swallowing a golfer, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, a melting Antarctica, the Universe seems to be sending us not-so-subtle warnings. Since the clock ticked over from 1999 to 2000, the abnormal has become normal. People seem to sense that all is not as it should be in the world, and in the recesses of our mind is a sense of helplessness that there is nothing we can do but pray, change ourselves and start spreading love and peace instead of ignorance, arrogance and hatefulness and quit blaming Bush, Obama and the terrible leaders and murderous dictators around the globe for our problems. If the world should end tomorrow, I pray that each one of us will be looking for good and doing good things and believing that making the earth a better planet on which to live begins with individuals who can face the end without negativity and guilt.
