Bono: "It's 2009. Do you know where your soul is?"

Bonosub I figured it was just proof that I'm a product of my generation that I consider Bono prophetic.

But on a retreat this weekend, surrounded primarily by women who probably wouldn't consider themselves Gen-Xers, I heard others name him as a prophet, too.

Then today, I saw this New York Times op-ed piece he wrote.

I'm glad to see that such a prominent secular publication will give a prophet a pulpit. Now, will we heed his words, or run him out of town?
