Just because there's no "solid" proof, and people feel happy not knowing how life can be better is why our generation is called a דור יתום. It can only be in our belief system that משיח will indeed come one day. This is the lesson we learn from יציאת מצרים. In that גלות it was much harder, humanly, to take the Jews out of גלות, and still HASHEM did it. Surely he will do it for us as well, even if we don't "feel" we need it. The Jewish people even wanted to go back to Egypt after they were out. It was only later that they thanked Hashem for יציאת מצרים. It is similar with us. We already feel comfortable in this גלות because we don't know any better.

I heard it will start slowly, depending on the person,40 yrs after.
One thing I do know, in my generation (70s) ppl didn't talk about Moshiach as often as today.

And yet people did talk about Moshiach. My father was as Litvish as they come and a baki in the Chofetz Chaim's works, and spoke about Moshiach as far back as the 40s.

Otherwise what would be the point of bringing all the people back to life?
Ooh! I have a new theory. Maybe bringing people back to life actually means we'll all be able to travel freely in time, or even experience all of time at the same time, thus eliminating the concept of death, as we can always be present at the time a person was alive. |
Hee hee...who else would come up with a theory like that but you!
