>At the end of the day we will not stop this behavior. We can only hold it off for a short while. Those of us who believe in the Bible believe that ultimately God Himself will step into history and keep man from totally wiping himself off the face of the planet. We will do that if He does not intervene.

If that is true, he may as well decide to drop us and start all over again. This attempt has failed. But then, if he's so almighty, how come he's made us like this in the first place? Or, alternately, why did he decide to write the history as it is?
