The Bible speaks of the depravity of man... It's just a matter of time. The world will become more and more sinister. It all plays out in revelation.

Can you elaborate? A couple of millennia ago Alexander the Great was considered kind when he wiped out (Thebes I think?), killed the men and enslaved the women and children. We had slavery in this country just a couple of centuries back. Death by hanging was choice because it could take awhile, then somebody figured out the 13 knot method of tying it. Electrocution was picked up because it was thought to be excruciating. My point is that the world seems to be better overall. So why is it more sinister?
