It's often been said that if one is looking for evil in the world, he
or she will certainly find it. Wouldn't the same apply for love? Many of
the posts I read concerning Atlantis were that they were a loving and
enlightened civilization. Is this just hopeful thinking by today's people,
people who are possibly disgusted that this is as far as mankind has
progressed in so many centuries? What if Atlantis was a place with just as
much strife, hate, envy, greed and deception as this world is. Would it
change our perceptions of the future? Does it even matter if the
Atlantians were good or bad? I think not.
There are some individuals who believe that many Atlantians escaped
their destruction in space ships, whether it is their own or by direct
intervention of aliens. How likely is that, really? Atlantis was just
another point in the history of earth. I've heard that Atlantis was
destroyed just before the story of Adam and Eve, where the Atlantian
hermaphrodite was split into male and female. Had the hermaphrodite served
its purpose? Was the separation into male and female just another concept
to offer resistance to build human strength? In that case, it seems likely
that the great flood of Noah's Ark was not the first time the world was
destroyed -- it was the last time. There could have been numerous times
prior to the great flood when life in the world was nearly eradicated, but
the flood is the only thing we really have much evidence on. Noah's Ark
gets more attention than Atlantis, while Atlantis gets more skepticism.
What was destroyed prior to Atlantis? What did the Atlantians marvel over
in their history? Or was Atlantis the last straw? Did humanity degrade to
such a point where most of it had to be destroyed once again, making way
for Adam and Eve to start over with all the knowledge of the world that had
been acquired up to the point of the destruction of Atlantis? Quanta leaps
in the evolution of mankind, from one saga to the next, have brought us
here, from Atlantis to Noah's Ark, to . . . what comes after Noah's Ark?
No other destructions if the rainbow promise of the Bible is any
indication. Jesus Christ would seem to be at least some evidence of that.
He offered forgiveness in replacement of sacrifice and offerings. Nowadays
many people don't even bother with forgiveness. They suffer
psychologically for the things they know they've done wrong and eventually
resolution is achieved, which makes the person better as a whole.
Humankind is healing, so I don't see another destruction coming. Mass
awakening seems more likely. I've had trouble envisioning a mass landing
of aliens because it seems that this awakening process would be better
carried out in a subtle manner. If masses of ships landed, it would wreak
chaos in the religious community as people cling even more tenaciously to
their faith in religion and God to save them from anything that's evil.
That defeats the purpose of human growth -- to liberate oneself from God
and one's own past and liberation from Human history.
So what's next? Just a wait and see game, so it seems. At least more
people are seeing that there's more to life that what is immediately around
us. From what I understand about the days prior to 40 days and nights of
constant rainfall which wiped out all but a handful of humans, people were
totally consumed by lust, greed, drunkenness, etc. . . . They were
miserable, and yet didn't even know it. God saved them from their lives of
misery and took them home by destroying their flesh and salvaging their
souls to himself. There is no more destruction to come. This time, we
ride it out. It's not sink or swim. It's time to answer for ourselves.
It is up to us to answer for all of human history. Is that our purpose?
Is that what this is really all about? Perhaps it is. Perhaps it isn't.
But one thing is certain, and that is that we're really ready for the task
that's coming. We can do it, or we wouldn't be in this position in the
first place!
Best Regards,
