Everything in life has cause and effect. People who took upon themselves the onus of telling other what to do, how to behave, what to believe in, soon learned that instilling fear in them is by far the easiest way to control them. This is true of secular and religious organizations.
The religious organizations invented Heaven and Hell, with Hell being the ultimate stick for extracting obedience from their sheep (I mean faithful). The secular organizations, i.e.: various levels of governments, used the so-called law, invented to protect their interests, first the Kings, then politicians, by instilling fear in their followers: fear of financial penalties, prisons, and even death.
Since the days of Hammurabi, around 1750 BC., degrees of fear rather than ethics or morality became the means of imposing obedience on some people.
And then, a mere 3,770 years later, this was no longer enough. While the clerical organization were losing their power, the ambitions of secular authorities grew exponentially. The whole world became their oyster. The materialism of the mentality of people grew to such an extent that they ignored science, which has proven that the physical reality is an illusion. Their physical well-being became their only concern. The governments, no longer representing people but guided by a very small group of very rich people, invented a means of controlling the whole humanity.
They invented a "virus".
Essentially a fairly innocent virus. But supported by mass-media, which were also controlled by the few billionaires, and the scientists who, with very few exceptions, also followed the prevailing trend, and joined the hysteria surreptitiously imposed by the few on the many. A virus that might weaken peoples' immune system?
Fear is a very contagious disease.
I am reminded of the Nobel Prize laureate, Prof. Richard Feynman, who said that “The world is full of educated fools and uneducated geniuses”.
Fear of death became the new sine qua non state of consciousness of the populous at large. Honor, principles, ethics, courage, even friendship, were completely dismissed from our way of life. Fear, and only fear, controlled behaviour of the vast majority of people. It seems that pseudo-scientists, government official in pockets of billionaires whose greed could never be sated and the virus of fear was the new God controlling the behaviour of humanity.
In the past, now and then, a child may have been born that managed to awaken humanity from their mental and emotional stupor. Remember Noah's flood? Sacha, the hero of my book below, limited his cleansing process to just the most guilty. Now, at the onset of the Age of Aquarius, we may have to go through a period of unprecedented mayhem before people awaken to the fact that they were fooled by the few. The few whose power corrupted them.
Or...
***
Or, unbeknownst to them, the machinations of the 'Few' will save our Earth from gross overpopulation by us, by the single species which for millennia lived at the expense of all the others. The Few, with complete disregard for human life, will destroy our economy, our concept of science, politics and even morality. Yet those that survive might rediscover the concept of what it is to be human. They might remember that our true Self is immortal.
They might even remember that... we are gods, with all the attendant powers.
You decide.
