Oh there are plenty of signs. Plenty of signs for the whole world to see. Maybe that's what some people are missing. I'd like to tell people to just open their eyes, but I'm not sure it's that simple. Whether or not someone is receptive is up to God. If you ask, you just might receive.

While certain events would be nice every so many years, they could also undermine that ever so important tenet: faith.
