For people of faith, when the Bible teaches the world would become more and more evil, as in the days of Noah, approaching the end of the age, by what measure would, at least, a Christian think things are going to get better? Look at the news. Also, the genie doesn't generally get stuffed back into the bottle, no matter what you believe.
Here's what to expect, and already upon us:
2 Timothy 3
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
