As 2012 approaches and subsequently in the immediate time past 2012, as a result of these shifting, renewing, globally conscious energies, there will be less war, less famine, less hatred, less poverty, fewer diseases. When you read about, when you hear conjecture and speculation about 2012 and beyond, which says that the world is coming to an end, I would agree to that with this point of distinction: the world as you know it is coming to an end. -Archangel Michael.
