Is This The End of the World?
The soothsayers have been warning us for years that
"the end is near."
These aren't the old cartoon images of bearded robed
crazed-looking men carrying signs on city streets. We
have been hearing it from a variety of places, ranging
from the pulpit of Christian churches to the prophetic
stories by indigenous tribesmen in remote parts of the
world.
As one writer put it: "The Maya are counting down to
the end of the Fifth Age; evangelical Christians
eagerly await the Rapture; the Hopi say we are living
on borrowed time at the end of the Fourth World; and
the Kaogi people of Mexico's Sierra Madre jungles have
stopped spinning wool and weaving cloth in light of the
impending catastrophe. Prophets from Nostradamus to
Edgar Cayce, channelers from Madame Blavatsky to J. Z.
Knight, have foreseen everything from polar shifts to
cataclysmic earthquakes, from the resurfacing of
Atlantis to the sinking of the Americas, all in the
very near future."
As we watch the catastrophic effects of global warming,
the dramatic weather changes, the terrible forest
fires, floods, fierce storms and intense heat, we
worry. As we hear warnings of possible polar shifts,
solar flares, and even a looming collision by a stray
asteroid, there is a growing feeling of uneasiness
among the people of this overpopulated world that the
end of everything, at least as we have known it, is
upon us.
After all, the Christian church has preached an
"end-times" prophetic event involving the return of the
god-man Jesus, for 2000 years. Believers find it easy
to accept the stories because they welcome their
confrontation with their so-called "savior," just as
much as the suicide Moslem bomber looks forward to his
special reward for martyrdom. (Unfortunately, both will
be quite surprised when they learn the truth, but by
then, it will be too late.)
So what is happening to us?
The answer should not come as a surprise. Humans are
the problem. We have overpopulated our planet, and we
are refusing to do anything about this critical
problem. Consequently we are quickly using up all of
the planet's natural resources. We are using fossil
fuels to power our cars, run our factories and heat our
homes so we have polluted our air. We have cut down our
oxygen generating forests to make paper, build houses
and open new farmland so we are running out of oxygen.
We have polluted our lakes and oceans so life in these
great bodies of water is dying. And we are wasting what
little fresh water we have left.
A recent report by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) warns
that the human race has plundered the planet that has
outstripped its capacity to support life. The report
claims that more than a third of the natural world has
been destroyed by humans in the past 30 years and warns
that we either make dramatic reductions in consumption
rates or plan to start colonizing other planets very
soon.
From the exploration we have done in our own solar
system, it is clear that colonizing of either the Moon,
or Mars, will not be easy, if even possible.
It will not be long before we will be warring over the
last remaining land, food, fuel and water on the planet.
After this psychic and remote viewer Aaron C. Donahue
says we will be gathering along the oceans just to
breathe the oxygen still being generated by plankton.
The air inland will be too toxic for life. We will be
killing one another over what meager scraps of food are
left among us.
After this brief episode, we will be gone. Life on this
planet will be slowly snuffed away. The last to go will
be the bacteria, mold, fungus, flies and other insects
that can live in a toxic environment.
It will not be a pole shift. It will not be a collision
with a stray asteroid that kills us. It will be our own
stupidity; our blindness brought on by complex
religious belief systems that made us think an external
god was going to fix everything once we made a mess of
things.
We forgot that we were the extension of the great
energy that placed us here. We forgot that we were
assigned to be the stewards of this planet, to guard
and protect it. We forgot that we have been down this
road in times past and obviously made the same
mistakes.
The angelic spirits did a good job of blinding the
human race and turning us into a world of lemmings. We
blindly marched to the edge of the cliff and are now in
the process of toppling into the sea. Right on cue.
Will the human race get another chance?
There is a slim hope for a select few. But it won't be
a Jesusmobile. Nobody gets a free ride.
