January 1964: The Winter Olympic Games were held in Innsbruck, Austria.
March: Sharp and Sony, Japanese makers, launched the world first semiconductor-based desktop calculators.

You should note that after the assassination of JFK in 1963, the Gulf of Tonkin Incident occurred between the U.S. Navy and North Vietnam, leading to the decade long Vietnam War.
Yet, it is remarkable that the U.S. launched Mariner 4 to the planet Mars, returning the first pictures of the Martian surface in November 1964.
Indeed, the sky is full of stars more than star athletes on the ground.
SECTION I: Mesopotamia, Jerusalem, and Egypt
Ancient Persians occupied Mesopotamia, Jerusalem, and Egypt, 2500 years ago.
Alexander the Great occupied Mesopotamia, Jerusalem, and Egypt.
The Roman Empire occupied Mesopotamia, Jerusalem, and Egypt.
The Islamic Empire occupied Mesopotamia, Jerusalem, and Egypt.
The Turkish Empire occupied Mesopotamia, Jerusalem, and Egypt.
The British Empire occupied Mesopotamia, Jerusalem, and Egypt.
The American Empire is now exercising its hegemony over Mesopotamia, Jerusalem, and Egypt.
Yet, it looks like it must be the era of the Roman Empire that Jesus Christ should emerge.

It has resulted in today's propagation of Christianity as shown below with percentage of population in each country.

Indeed, if Japan, China, and India combined should surpass a potential of any other regional economic alliance in the world, you may realize that it is the era of Non-Christianity, or non-religion of any old world-mainstream sort, for peace and prosperity in addition to salvation of human souls.
It is so, since Wall Street, full of Anglo-Saxon guys associating with super-rich Judaists and Arab noblemen, has borrowed huge yen from Japan, while expecting huge investments from China and huge investment chances into India.

It will be around 2 a.m. of Saturday, Japan Time, that the International Olympic Committee will choose one city among Tokyo, Chicago, Madrid, and Rio de Janeiro.
Anyway, it is eight hours from now.
Yet, I think Japan should hold some sort of great international events every four years, starting from 2010 with support from China, India, and Russia, if any.
Indeed, Great is the God, since the God is so Great!
