At least a third new religion didn't take off after that last plague. Having two of them pop up was bad enough

It was a question, not a pronouncement, and a wonderful topic for discussion. Myself, I don't believe they will supplant the US as the next global superpower. They will not supplant the U.S. The Chinese build cheap electronics. But they don't have the ingenuity to write great software. It's still a rice paddy society.
Pinky, check your PM's. I sent you one two weeks ago.
If the US doesn't take steps China will become the dominant economic power within the next several decades and they already wield significant political power. The US isn't the 'mightiest country on earth' because of some divine will of god bullshit, we became an economic powerhouse because 2 world wars destroyed most the world's industrial capability and we were the only game in town. Those days are over and Nixon gave our manufacturing to China and now they are a powerhouse. Rest assured they are not dumb enough to give it back. We can't even make enough masks and toilet paper for our own population. Last week I saw alcohol wipes for the first time since April.
