MANY SHALL run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased" (Dan. 12:4). This ancient prophecy rings in our ears today with momentous mindboggling significance. The twin phenomena of almost instant communication and the knowledge explosion have spawned the unwanted byproducts of future shock, culture shock and even religious shock. The first irony: in an age of unprecedented scientific and technological knowledge, we are suffering from the perpetually growing headache of uncertainty. Governments, groups and individuals grope for an elusive security in an earth characterized by the growing specter of global chaos. We live in a world of ominous forebodings, where even the future existence of biological life is an open question. The second irony: in an age teeming with technological knowledge of every stripe and description, mankind is nevertheless suffering from a severe case of knowledge starvation. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
