For Full Historical Symmetry
It is said that the JFK assassination in 1963 had changed the U.S. forever. It is also said that the Vietnam War up to the early 1970s had changed the U.S. forever. It is also said that the end of the Cold War in early 1990s had changed the U.S. forever. It is also said that the 9/11 Terror in 2001 had changed the U.S. forever. It is also said that the Financial Crisis and Obama's victory around 2008 had changed the U.S. forever. And finally, the Trump administration established in 2017 seems to have changed the U.S. forever. Yet, the 2020 corona-virus pandemic is going to change the U.S. forever.
Maybe the first century in Palestine is taken as an analogy. Around 60, the Jerusalem collapsed through the First Jewish-Roman war, and the Second Jewish-Roman war occurred around 131, and consequently the Jewish people were expelled completely from Jerusalem and Palestine, going into the Diaspora. In this context, the 20th century should take the first century as an analogy. And based on this analogy, we may expect that something decisive will happen around early 2030s.
This pandemic's influence on economy is said to exceed that in the 2008 Financial Crisis that allowed Obama to win the Presidential Election. And it is expected that the globalization of economy will lose its momentum after this corona-virus pandemic, and the U.S. and the EU will take and main a sterner attitude to China that generated the pandemic, while China will promote its ambition to get hegemony over the world.
As Isaac Newton predicted, the world may go into the end of the world after 2060. If so, this pandemic is the start of the beginning of the era toward the end of the world. Or, maybe another pandemic or a similar event will occur around 2030.
From an individual point of view, there are too many unkind, bad, or evil people in this world. Even the Pope does not look like a poor and powerful saint, although he wears rich clothes, lives in a rich palace, and eats delicious dishes. Everybody seems to have sold its soul to Satan to earn money. If these anti-Christ attitudes are the only result of the 2000-year history after the death of Christ Jesus, it is reasonable for the God to put an end to the civilization of the mankind by sending the Angel of Death to this human world.
But as the last warning, the God must use this pandemic. From the Pope and Trump to a rich man in China, everybody enjoining its wealth should repent.
Or the mankind will be expelled from this world like the Jewish people in Palestine around 130. But there will be nobody who will take a part like the Roman Empire in the second century.
Yet, new Christianity may start to play the role of early Christianity in the 2nd century and later, as I have a feeling that the mankind may further survive another 500 years, since the Great Pyramid of Giza was built BC 2560, and full historical symmetry should be fulfilled.
