The issue that triggered the email was the wide variation in what people consider facts, these days:
"... the problem with the rampant ignorance portraying itself as knowledge is that it can not be corrected, in any way that I can see. It serves itself entirely, like Frank Herbert (or was it Robert Heinlein) said of the Angry Mind, exists only for itself. These proclamations of absurd and impossible things are very disturbing more for that reason than for what they actually say. Data without any possible corrective feedback."
My response to this email, which is one of many expressing concerns about the issue was:
So... how about this: the world of negative/distressing polarity is pulling further and further away from the world of positive/loving polarity, and you're just observing it. How's that for an explanation? No need to try to change it, simply to hold to the love and trust that most of the folk who can feel it will come along, while those who can't will move in into their very different world.
Like the cover of the original Make the World Go Away:
not fun to watch, though... the folks who are "stuck" in the distress are going through some pretty terrible stuff!
I'm not the only one suggesting this idea, though I did so back in 2008, before it was being posted on the internet. If we accept the "multiverse" theory of reality, then universes branch off at various choice points along the way, and what was "real" in one universe is no longer even possible in another. The old one is completely forgotten almost immediately, because there's no way it could have happened, from the perspective of the new one.
The New Testament book of Revelation tells us that "the old earth and the old heaven shall pass away... and a new heaven and earth shall replace them." (translations vary). This totally fits the multiverse model. In one universe Earth is separate from Heaven, but Jesus and other spiritual teachers tell us that what we call Heaven is not "someplace else", but rather right here--simply unavailable to people who are not attuned to it.
This raises the question: what if the people who are not attuned to Heaven are splitting their universe away from the people who are? What if we are, in fact experiencing 2 different versions of life on Earth right now? Then, one day, will only experience one version: the one that we are attuned to?
Accepting that possibility helps explain all kinds of things, including the "Left Behind" series of books and movies, the various dystopian and utopian books and movies, and the prophecies of the Judeo-Christian tradition - as well as many of the indigenous prophecies.
A new Heaven in a new Earth. I'm ready for it! :)
