I'm sure I'm trying to revive a long dead thread here and attention is now focused elsewhere. However, I would make the point that any time I hear fear mongering, I start to tune out the message.
Fear mongering is a manipulation of the emotional drive that lies within all living things to survive. It shuts down the cortex, hence critical thinking, and before too long your spouting idiotic talking points that often have little basis in reality. The powers that be know this all too well. Which is why fear propaganda is so effective.
Moreover, if Mr. Jordan really is as "in tune" with the spiritual world as he claims, then why is it he is receiving vastly different messages from others who have "seen the other side"?
What I've found is that those who have had NDEs almost always come back with three distinct messages, over and over and over again. And that is one, there is no such thing as death, two love is the most important thing and three ALL IS WELL.
I've seen so many other so called "spiritually awakened" people participate in their own version of fear mongering, often in order to sell a book.
Not that we should trash everything with reckless abandon, but that regardless of what our perception may be in this physical life on this physical planet, everything really is ok. There is nothing to fear. Loving one another as we wish to be loved, forgiveness and treating all things with respect are paramount. Everything else stems from this. If everyone were capable of behaving this way, everything else would take care of itself.
Instead we are constantly bombarded with messages that humans are a scourge on the earth. We are a cancer. We are unimportant and a cosmic mistake. Our lives have no meaning, our universe has no meaning. What's the problem with the death of millions from starvation, war and disease when human life is meaningless...no,
harmful.
I for one do not believe that overpopulation is a real threat. With the population density of New York City, the entire current population of humans on the earth could fit into the state of Texas.

I also believe that "climate change" is pure unadulterated bullshit.
In assessing the truth and value of any "alarmist" type claim, one has to look to who benefits from the so-called "solutions" and who doesn't.
Damn near every bullshit story like overpopulation and climate change suggest solutions that would annihilate the poor, destroy the middle class and preserve life for the wealthiest among us. This is all nothing more than the same old social Darwinism of the 19th and 20th century elitists, dressed up in some snazzy new 21st century clothing. Even science backing up this disturbing mound of donkey shit is nothing new. Science was bought and paid for a long time ago. Just like our political system.
Everyone seems to forget that truth and reality are only correct in ones current time and space. We all seem to forget that each generation before us believed they were the pinnacle of human evolution and achievement. We look back now and snicker at how "stupid" or "misguided" these poor fools of old where. Never realizing that we too will come to also be known as the fools of old.
The only truth is that no one knows what the future holds. The future is determined by a nearly infinite number of factors. We are kidding ourselves if we truly believe that a computer model can tell us the fate of our world, while relying on data from-at best-5500 years ago, on a planet that is ~4 billion years old and a species that is ~200,000 years old.
Are we so naive that we believe we truly understand our planet (much less universe) and who or what our species really is?
The one truly shameful aspect of human beings is their inability to understand the limits of their own understanding.
