In 2038 China will become the largest economy by all measures except GNP per capita. By 2038 their new Long March 7 and 8 super boosters will be launching the componets for assembling the Mao Zedong Moon Base and the Dong Feng "East is Red" spacecraft for the first trip to the Red Planet Mars. Debate swirls around whether Beijing will include a guest American astronaut on the crew at either the Moon base or the Mars probe. From 2038 Nihao.

In 2038 abortion clinics will not be needed. By then a safe over the counter drug will prevent pregnancy.
One headline that was left out:
2038 - Fundies still waiting for return of Jesus (he's coming, glory, glory)
2138 - Fundies still waiting for return of Jesus (this time for sure)
2238 - Fundies still waiting for return of Jesus (any day now, they insist)
2338 - Fundies still waiting for return of Jesus (no doubt about it)
etc, etc.
