Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees, to deprive the poor of their rights and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people, making widows their prey and robbing the fatherless. What will you do on the day of reckoning, when disaster comes from afar?

Novel what is it about what you think the future will look like that makes you think people won't be able to handle it?



Also a techno shirt that changes colour with your mind would be expensive as hell and hardly anyone would see it or notice it.

If everyone's suddenly a living painting, life gets a little distracting and flexing gets a little complicated.

I'm sure that the same thoughts were common in the early Renaissance as well.
