The World is Not Going to End Just Yet

That would be too good for us. Nope, it's just going to suck for a while. This from today's Mass readings:

Deuteronomy 32:18-19, 20, 21

“Since they have provoked me with their ‘no-god’
and angered me with their vain idols,
I will provoke them with a ‘no-people’;
with a foolish nation I will anger them.”

R. You have forgotten God who gave you birth.

Is there any doubt we already have been provoked with a "foolish nation"? Is it not clear that with the coming election we are only going to get more foolish?
