“I haven’t told you everything. It’s important, so pay attention.”
“They know what’s coming. Not that lot down there, but the elites who control them. They are unable to stop it happening. They think they can take advantage of their knowledge and the ignorance of the world's populations. Knowledge is the essence of not only their power but also of their control. They’ve had millennia to learn this. They are the keepers of recorded history. They have made sure only they have the totality of mankind's records. The mass of people on Earth knows just a small portion of what this group knows. This is really how they control you.”
“The population of the world has no idea what is happening. What is coming! But those who …show more content…
The biosphere will either collapse or it will adapt. To adapt would mean great change. It would mean the end of many living things. Perhaps the human race.”

We must know what we missed seeing. Dr. Bolous’s calculations are primitive. But these astronomers never understand what they are looking at. They simply don’t have enough information.
“The most important thing to keep in mind is the real event and what it means is being hidden from you. The immediate danger that you face is man-made. The rulers of this planet panic. They grasp at any opportunity to maintain control over the world’s population. They seek to harness the coming chaos to create an outcome favorable to them and their continued rule.”
