Six proposals to save mankind: LINK

The disasters that befall us from now on and for years to come cannot be bad enough. That offers the only chance to return all races to the continents where they belong and all immigrants to their countries of origin to take up their responsibilities there. That responsibility is nothing more than simply taking care of each other's vital needs and caring for the other out of connection and love. Anything that harms this will be avoided and every effort is made to make one's own land habitable and liveable.

PROPHECY

Tonight there was a cloudless sky, but not a single star in sight. The atmosphere is extremely polluted. If something like this happened overnight, the whole of humanity would be shocked. Now we have evolved very slowly to this state. I can hardly remember the beautiful starry sky from my youth, seventy years ago.

This situation should bring about an impossible and unimaginable change. Industrial production should be stopped immediately. Transport on land, at sea and in the air should be ended. People should stay in the area where they live. Every society should become self-sufficient with an emphasis on ecological farming and caring for each other.

However, this cannot be achieved.  

Humans have been on Earth for over three million years. There have been wonderful achievements in scientific, artistic and spiritual fields. There has been so much love. The positive in the balance sheet far exceeds all the misery that people have been guilty of.

There is, of course, a God who looks at it all and lets people have their freedom. But will He allow life on earth to disappear forever? I don't expect it. So we are faced with events that will give people the incentive to radically change their behaviour. This will be the new Flood, of which we do not yet know what divine intervention it will be concretely.

From materialism we will make the leap to a spiritual life. We will only purchase the things that are indispensable for living. The emphasis will be on living together with our loved ones and with the people with whom we feel connected through a common history and shared values. Justice, responsibility for each other and solidarity between rich and poor, between the powerful and the weak will create an atmosphere where every person will know that others will care about her or him.

That leap to spirituality is a repetition of the history of the Tower of Babel. After the chaos, every people will return to the land where they belong.

The Flood is very near. Our hope is in Babylon.

The challenges of the 21st century

In this website, a strategy is developed and further adapted to meet the great challenges of the 21st century, to prevent a man-made apocalypse and to stop provoking the Creator's wrath for the devastation we are wreaking on planet Earth.

Basic principle: the individual is responsible for peace, well-being and prosperity for all people on earth and for good stewardship of nature. People cannot shift that responsibility to politics or to organizations and institutions. That is why it is so important for adults and children to be horrified at what is happening in this century.

Two philosophers are an important source of inspiration: Soren Kierkegaard (1813-1855 ) and Emmanuel Levinas (1906-1995).

Some key propositions developed in this website

We will overcome the consequences of tragic events in the 21st century under the following conditions:

1. Focusing on family life. We continue to live and work in the vicinity of the people with whom we know we are connected.
2. Industrial pollution can be reduced by 90% if we limit our purchases to the bare minimum
3. Traffic on land, in the air and at see can be reduced by 90% if our movements are limited to the bare minimum
4. ’Male and female God created them’: the confirmation of motherhood and fatherhood ensures the survival of humanity
5. If all immigrants return to their countries of origin, those countries will flourish
6. All the Jews go to Israel and the Muslims and Christians withdraw from this country. The temple is being rebuilt. This is an absolute precondition for achieving peace, well-being and prosperity in the Islamic countries. If this requirement of God is not met, the misery in those countries will continue, the Muslims will continue to kill each other and destroy their cultural heritage even more
7. Western civilization must guard its Christian foundation and the ethics that underpin it as strictly as possible. The future of humanity and the protection of planet Earth depend on it
8. Islam attacks the Christian roots of Western civilization because it is an imperialist religion, imposed coercively and, ultimately, by violent force.
9. If there is peace, well-being and prosperity in the Middle East, an alliance can arise between Europe and the Islamic countries. A new world power with mutual solidarity will arise here, which will also bring peace, well-being and prosperity to black Africa.
