STOP MAKING BABIES YOU RETARDS

[MrAnchi121]

This is just the start of it. Jesus is the truth. When you see these things happening just know that they are birth pangs. Your going to see wars. I'm telling you that Evil is going to spread like a fire, but YOU I pray that you are planted in solid ground. Faith is the only thing going to gaurantee your existence. He is the bread of life. Thou you hunger you will be fed, you will not thirst. You will not need money. Just forget about this life. Honestly do not worry about dying. He is the good.

Africa as well fencing in large areas of land so in drought the nomads can't get to highter elevations to feed there animals, and to top this off multinationals have been buying up the water rights in Africa fucking with the water table (watch flow) thus the staples of Africa which has substained them for thousands of years are not being grown! and prices are going sky high! since 1970 when almost all of Africa could feed itself before multinationals have made profits more important than lives!
