I do alright but not my best subject in school. Why?

So the world has many problems with many of them being very serious.
We have talked about the issues with the oceans and with more then enough evidence proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that it is the most serious with it's many connotations to not only ocean life, but life on the entire planet.
There has been more then enough proof that shows this will happen unless one of two things happen.
That would be with man solving this or with God solving this.
So far history has shown that man has had a very hard time in coming up with the answers and means to not only solve this extreemly serious disaster that has already begun but how to reverse it and hopefully never let it happen again.
We all really know the answers as to why this is happening. A couple factors include mans greed for $$$$$$$$ and not being interested in REALLY taking care of this beautiful planet that God made for us.
So if man could somehow and very quickly solve these problems with the complete cooperation of "every country" on this planet, the end or near end of life as we know it will end within this century, possibly mid century according to many scientist.
So will man find a way or will it have to be a higher power to solve this impending disaster?
Isaiah 11:9
New Living Translation (NLT)
9 Nothing will hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain,
for as the waters fill the sea,
so the earth will be filled with people who know the Lord.
So how do we humans ever get to this point? By mans ways or God's?

I think those here who say "things are not bad but are in fact getting better" really need to open their eyes to the world and what is truely happening and come to a clear view of what man has done to the planet and realize that God is the only answer to saving it and all life on it...
Originally posted by galveston75But you assured us before that some of us would never be able to see the evidence unless God allows us to. So are you changing that stance now? Or does 'beyond a shadow of a doubt' only apply to Christians?

subject of a sentence and a predicate noun, is there any hope for you RJH? Yes,
resume your Bible study and stop messing around with Baptists that can hardly read
English let alone help you in your quest to gain an understanding of scripture. I had a
witness friend, Gavin MacNay, he was similar, he received a first class honours degree
in mathematics from Glasgow University, wrote a treatise on some kind of number
theory which only a handful of individuals could understand and yet he could not pass
ordinary grade English. I believe it has something to do with the way the mind works,
its interesting phenomena, never the less.

you would not be able to understand it.

because i can i guess. My statement to twithead was an attempt to demonstrate the
irony of his post not because I actually think i am a chosen one, although, it would be
nice if I was, i think.
