The things to "think about" at the end are a series of contrived cliches that are easy to repeat but are ultimately meaningless. First we are assured how serious the video and subject are. Second, we are posed with a question that makes two giant assumptions (God exists and has some control over the world, and that the world is going to hell) and asserts them as if they are beyond reproach.

Throw in a veiled questioning of the media and terrible music and you have the perfect tripe stew.
You're entitled to your opinon I guess.
