<<So what happens after these explosive events, IAO?>>
here i offer a reducto to absurdum defining of Arnold Toynbee's 12 volumes study of world history "It is a comparative study of 26 civilizations in world history, analyzing their genesis, growth, and disintegration. According to Toynbee's hypothesis, the failure of a civilization to survive was the result of its inability to respond to moral and religious challenges, rather than to physical or environmental challenges"
well on laboring to the end of volume 12 i was waiting for his solution this endless cycle of "genesis, growth, and disintegration." I found that his conclusion is "there is no solution".( he then gets subjective,and offers the hope particular to his religious faith, but it is NOT applicable to his objective study of world history).
So i will just fall back on Lord Keynes observation "That in the long run, we'll all be dead."
