Like measuring light as a particle or wave makes it what the observer expects, so too does assuming things about reality make it so. I fear the conclusion people gear up for is the wholesale demise of many millions unless this spiritual ennui ceases. How many catastrophes have people expected in the last few decades? How many times have humans expected the End Times? Thomm Quackenbush
About This Quote

Albert Einstein said, “We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.” I believe that the reality that people expect is one that they create on their own. They create the reality that says that humanity is doomed to destruction on an all-too-regular basis. It is important to remember, however, that this does not come from some external source. Humanity has no power over the world or anything else for that matter. It is all part of the fabric of existence; nothing more and nothing less.
