Fire and Ice
I am not an Armageddonist, far from it. In fact, I consider the whole theory somewhat amusing and kind of funny. But I am sure the Armageddon crowd these days is probably pointing to events around the world, whether natural or man made, trying to promote their agenda and in the process scare people into believing that the end of the world is actually near. For some, events like the recent fires in Southern California, Hurricane Katrina, the record heat around the world, the unusual weather pattern, the war in Iraq, instability in Middle East etc. may indeed push them over the brink and might give the enough reason to accept the Armageddon belief.
Watching the horrible fires here in So California and the other events mentioned above, I could not help be reminded of a poem by Robert Frost, Fire and Ice. Enjoy!
Fire and Ice
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
Robert Frost
