Humanity is bound together and empowered to collaborate by means of shared belief in a succession of gods.

At present the god is Money, who rules through the Invisible Hand of the Market, and who requires infinite expansion into a finite space.

This is an impossibility
1/
As well as demanding an impossibility, the prevailing religion of Money is causing mass extinctions, and destroying the energy balance of our Earth.

This is the modern equivalent of human sacrifice.

2/
We will eventually, late in the day, reject the dogma of Money and replace it with a reality-based belief.

This will be the understanding that we humans are one part of a vast, intricate ecological web of living things. We will shift towards protecting and healing that web
3/
..and in doing so, will protect and heal our own societies and economies.

At the moment, it feels that we are making very slow progress, but there will come a point of rapid change.

It is the job of people who are ecologically aware to be prepared to manage the change 4/4
