@Naifalbidh What if only in such intensifications between highly diverse cosmovisions can the vicious cycle ultimately give way to a vital circle - to a novel, planetarian symbiote of revelation set within a common horizon of hope and its expectation of an ultimate communion of eternal life?

Our 'Day' of liberation in which an Extinction Tyranny defined by maniacal, interlocking, global structures of secular and religious consciousness and power, is espistemically demolished by the planetary-saving righteousness of the force of truth itself. t.co/qJXf2RTSx1

Ultimately, an inclusive eschatology serves up a democratic claim. t.co/nXwe176qRY

The applied revelation of a planetary prophetology simply end-runs the power play.

What this is not, is an interminable slog toward a dead end; rather, the disarray necessarily defining a phase shift of evolutionary proportions as one planetary paradigm crashes and another replaces it.

Copy of tweet: Ultimately, the catastrophe of a global religio-political control-complex with no operative interest in reconciliatory reformation, summons the advent of planetary prophetology's unifying articulation - the planetary-saving righteousness of an inclusive eschatology, revealed.
Open original document@jasonwblakely As if the exceptionalism a nation, religion or culture believes it has, can somehow evade a crowning planetary authority revealing a new and vital coherence transcending the mimetic crisis of chronically malignant fictions and fabrications sustaining the entire, global shebang.
