It needs to be fixed.

Once upon a time an inebriated person (a "drunk") was walking
down the street with one foot in the gutter and one on the curb.
A cop stopped him and asked him why he was doing that. The man
exclaimed, "Is that what I'm doing? Oh, thank you officer, I
thought I was a hopeless cripple!" We are that drunk. We need to
get the word out. There is something wrong with this world. There
is something actively trying to "screw" you and me up. It isn't
always because you're such a wicked sinner- but don't take that
as carte blanche; there's certainly something wrong with us too.
But even when we know that and try to do something about it, it's
still an uphill struggle. But then you probably knew that, right?
My point here, however, is don't get discouraged; and for "God's
sake", don't blame God! Those without Christ incessantly propose
world-changing solutions: Communism, socialism, new age movements,
etc. But while we are challenged to improve what we can, we dare
not lose sight of the fact that "there will be wars and rumors of
wars....". No, it's not over till a certain lady of amplitude
"sings".
