Greetings, Ianus! Still claiming man as "progressed" morally, huh?

Your estimation of Islam is still spot on, but man has continually degraded God's every insertion of morality. We haven't improved a thing. The financial crisis, the world's almost total desertion of Israel, and the spread of porography (including child porn) speak far more loudly of man's "progress" on the moral front.

The press reports opinion & fashion while withholding truth. European politicians are arrested for stating the negative facts of Islam, and the latter slowly becomes fashionable. Greed & ignorance is rampant.

Europe's once ally (Turkey) and energy hub, increasingly panders to Russia and Iran. China and North Korea become more and more daring in challenging U.S. intelligence ships in international waters. North Korea & Iran become deadlier by the moment. I think it was said some months ago that Iran would have nuclear weapon capability by this past February. They are announcing the soon launch of a "sattelite" - I'm sure for the same "peaceful" purposes as nuclear development.

Yeah, I would say man has really progressed on a lot of fronts, but morally - nah!

Good to see you still around. I have been gone for quite awhile on a private war. Probably still won't be back much, but we'll see.
