Rome did not fall in a day, a decade, or even a century. It changed slowly, weakened and adapted, and even shaped Christianity to become part of the machinery of the empire before the collapse. History has an awful tendency to repeat itself, but as Vance talks about the end times, there is one major difference from those days. We are now capable of creating our own end days, or fulfilling the prophecy ourselves. And if enough people believe strongly enough, prophecy can become self fulfilling.
