   Christians shifting the balance toward faith. And then scholastics,   
   scientists, engineers and bureaucrats. Mixed with esoteric revival and   
   infusion of Eastern spirituality, while    
   the East was infused with Western science and technology. Population explosion   
   electrified by literacy and information and communication technology. Thus man   
   awakens from his long slumber.   
      
   Wake me when it's over.
