I look at the "problem" as being one of belief systems that we allow to run our minds. Many of these belief systems (programs) are accepted by default, without conscious active choice----read programming. The power elite knows that perception is reality and they have been masters at skewing perception since early on. They use religion, news media, print media, political propoganda, and advertising as their main pipelines for manipulating people's minds.

As far as the human spirit overcomming this kind of programming. The potential is there for sure. As we stand now though, our macrocosmic mother's (earth)immune system is beginning to buck and mount an immune response to the parastitic entites (belief system choice) that have gone astray. It is my prediction that many people that have given into this "parastic consciousness" will be part of Gaia's purge as "she" seks balance. There will be some people who align with the holistic coherency that Gaia needs. There is no difference than a human body's immune system seeking homeostasis (microcosm) than the planet that we are interdependent to, seeking balance.

"Meanwhile, all of us will do well to learn to communicate with others more and more with RESPECT -- and ESPECIALLY those who have views differing from our own, and perhaps MOST especially those who are still totally under the mind control of the globalists and totally afraid of the corporate-designed "terrorists" (take your pick whether it be Muslims or Christians or Jello Addicts Anonymous). Getting angry with people who are war hawks due to their mind-controlled fear will not help release them."
