"Perhaps you take for granted that humanity will just continue, but humanity has faced great challenges before, but it keeps going and it keeps growing, and there are very positive things that humanity has created. It has made many improvements in many different aspects of human life. If you do not see this, then you are not looking. These results, these accomplishments, in whatever field—in the social environment, in politics, in health, in medicine, in education, social justice—all of these accomplishments have been the result of concentrated minds working against tremendous odds to produce a beneficial result. This has kept humanity moving and has kept alive the greater potential and possibilities for the human family. You need to be a positive contributor to this." | "Perhaps you take for granted that humanity will just continue, but humanity has faced great challenges before, but it keeps going and it keeps growing, and there are very positive things that humanity has created.

"You have come into the world at a great turning point, a turning point only part of which you will see in your own lifetime. It is a turning point where your world gains contact with the worlds in its vicinity. This is the natural evolution of humanity, as it is the natural evolution of all intelligent life in all worlds. Your world is seeking a Greater Community. This will require that your world’s own internal community become unified. This is also a part of the evolution of all intelligent life in all worlds. You have come here to serve this." | "You have come into the world at a great turning point, a turning point only part of which you will see in your own lifetime.

"The evolution of humanity follows the pattern of evolution of most of the races in the universe. When those races begin to exhaust their own planets and face the reality of the Greater Community of life in the universe, they have reached a great and difficult and precipitous threshold. They have reached a true turning point where their past understanding and assumptions will not serve them and might even betray them. Humanity has reached this threshold." | "The evolution of humanity follows the pattern of evolution of most of the races in the universe.
