More people are being fed now than ever before in the history of humanity. This, plus the dropping off of famines since the mid-century surely makes your interpretation less vivid than you'd like it to be, presuming you want others to subscribe to it?

Did they include that "Dutch famine - 30,000 death toll - mid 20thC (as it just so happens, the very century you need it to be in)' on their list?

Did that not give you pause for thought?

Were are not concerned with what is happening now, we are demonstrating that famine
as part of Christ's composite sign was the beginning of the end.

no not really all i was concerned about was in determining when the greatest famines
have occurred. Wait a minute, are you actually accusing me of doctoring a list in order
to win an argument and present data that isn't actually a proper representation of the
historical facts? You are, aren't you!

But if this "sign" is diminishing or receding, are you "not concerned" that it might not be "the beginning of the end" right now?

no, no concerns, clearly it is the beginning of the end right now as evidenced by the
empirical scientific data.

Those famines happened 60-70 years ago. Since then, they have dramatically reduced.

No. Not "doctoring". I rather suspect you scooped up - rather unquestioningly - a list that suited your specific purposes and were unconcerned by its validity on account of your professed bias and your professed desire to find and prove exactly what you want and need to find and prove.

But this particular "sign" is clearly fading.

yes I agree, never the less, we are trying to demonstrate that this composite sign was
'the beginning', of pangs of distress.

Was it predicted that this particular "sign" would then fade away after the "pangs"?

you cannot state that the greatest preponderance of recorded famine has not occurred
sine the beginning of the twentieth century , this is after all the point, in defining a time
period for the beginning of Christ's fulfilment of the composite sign.

Yes indeed, but PK's list was even better!
