Shift Happens
Earlier this week a friend of mine sent me a link to a You Tube clip that he referred to as “Shift happens”. Let me tell you, this 8 minute presentation is well worth viewing. It highlights how the world is shifting and the balance in the universe is dramatically changing with the rapid advancement of the digital age. As was stated in the presentation, “we are living in exponential times”.
From an employment perspective this presentation addresses some of the generational differences that exist and the magnitude that some of these difference actually represent.
I thought the presentation was great and certainly worth the eight minutes of your time. You’ll notice that there are several versions and adaptations of the same title.. the clip below is the updated version of the original.
Take a look at the clip and let me know what you think:

No doubt in my mind that India and China are growing at a fantastic rate, but what about their spirtual growth. One is tsill a communist nation, bent on controlling the entire world. The other is basically still a class society, with poverety still growing, and roads, facilities and healthcare still in very bad shape. The education system of these countries should not be compared with those of the west. Unfortunately, we in America are also to blame for allowing our country to become just like everybody else. We have fallen for this myth called the Global Economy. Instead of America staying on top as a leader and a country that is respected by everyone, we are becoming a country of pansies. Afraid to kick butt when we have too, but ready to make all sorts wild accomodations to ther countries. All in the name of being a global country. What a bunch of el toro you know what!
India and China are missing it all! Yes they have growing economies and their populations are exploding, but keep in mind that communisum has never worked and China is still a communist country. India is a class society and if you are poor then you can basically forget about having a decent chance in India.
India and China must become spirtually strong as well. The religions of these countries hindus, buiddist, muslim, etc., etc., are getting them nowhere and will continue to get them nowhere.
Unless there is a mass revival for Christianity in these countries, then all the information, money and power that they may obtain will mean absolutely squat.
America is blessed bcause it is a Christian country, we acknowledge the God of the bible. It’s been that way since America was founded by the earleir settlers from England. But, I guess they no longer teach that in school either.
God Bless the red, white and blue!! God Bless America!!
