Apologies. I didn’t provide the link to my Substack post. Here’s how we can prepare to evolve humanity: https://predictivehistory.substack.com/p/the-third-coming
notes/quotes from aug 2025 post:
With the destruction of the world, there will be a Third Coming. This crisis will prove devastating, and possibly kill billions. It may also enable us to imagine civilization in a way that allows us to achieve our ultimate destiny.
what we need is a means to get to the root of problem
legit freedom will only happen if it’s all of us.. and in order to be all of us.. has to be sans any form of measuring, accounting, people telling other people what to do
how we gather in a space is huge.. need to try spaces of permission where people have nothing to prove to facil curiosity over decision making.. because the finite set of choices of decision making is unmooring us.. keeping us from us..
ie: imagine if we listen to the itch-in-8b-souls 1st thing everyday & use that data to connect us (tech as it could be.. ai as augmenting interconnectedness)
the thing we’ve not yet tried/seen: the unconditional part of left to own devices ness
[‘in an undisturbed ecosystem ..the individual left to its own devices.. serves the whole’ –dana meadows]
there’s a legit use of tech (nonjudgmental exponential labeling) to facil the seeming chaos of a global detox leap/dance.. for (blank)’s sake..
ie: whatever for a year.. a legit sabbatical ish transition
I have faith that with the world’s end and the washing away of all institutions and prejudices we humans can achieve a collective consciousness.
In future posts, I will explain in detail this psychic Internet (what I call the “Ether”): what it is, how we can achieve it, and what we can do with it. Today I will discuss how we can build the Ark to ensure that what is best about us survives the Flood.

Our forthcoming mission is not to save ourselves, but to save civilization itself.
hmm.. i don’t know.. civilization ness et al
To do so we must remember how Homer and Dante created civilization. Embedded within and emanating throughout the Iliad, the Odyssey, and especially the Divine Comedy is the ultimate Truth: “Love is the unifying force of the universe, and the imagination is the animating force.”
Dante explains this well in La Commedia. God is the Light of the universe, and this Light shines in all of us, connecting us to God and to each other. We call the Light within us “love,” and when we direct it fully at another person it burns so brightly in us that it connects us with God. His knowledge becomes ours.
to me.. this is a cancerous distraction
Because we have physical bodies our understanding of this knowledge becomes refracted through our experience. This activates and augments our imagination, which increases God’s knowledge.
yeah.. i don’t think this is how legit free people would be..
Because God is omniscient, by definition it cannot have an imagination, and thus it relies on our imagination to expand itself. When we imagine, we can channel the power of God to re-shape reality. As Milton wrote in Paradise Lost: “The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven.”
Our mission is to transmit this truth, and make it the basis for a new civilization. A civilization is not books or technology or people. A civilization is first and foremost an act of imagination.
To that end, we need three major elements:
1. We need scholars to preserve Homer, Dante, and the wisdom of the human experience.
cancerous distraction.. to me this is a red flag we’re doing it wrong
2. We need educators who can understand and teach these Great Books to everyone else.
cancerous distraction.. to me this is a red flag we’re doing it wrong
3. We need people to support these scholars and educators in their mission.
cancerous distraction.. to me this is a red flag we’re doing it wrong.. oi
has to be all of us for the dance to dance
This is the first principle we must appreciate. The Ark is not a ship or a physical construct. It is first and foremost an intellectual community. It comes together at first to study and preserve the Great Books, and to anticipate the unraveling of the world. Over time, as this unraveling becomes more apparent, this community adapts to this unraveling, and this process of adapting teaches it how to be:
ooof.. intellectness as cancerous distraction
· open (constantly asking questions)
· flexible (constantly experimenting)
· resilient (constantly reflecting and learning from mistakes)
If the world ultimately unravels, this community now has the capacity to re-build civilization.
Where will this community be based, and who ought to comprise it?
Aye, there’s the rub. With climate change causing droughts and famines, wars raging over resources and religion, and human migration destroying nation-states and borders, no corner of the earth will be spared. There are those who believe New Zealand offers safe harbors, but in a time of crisis everyone will be flocking to safe harbors, and thus destroying them.
This brings us to the second principle. The Ark has to be a global movement of communities. We do not know which regions of the earth will be safe, so we need to have communities implanted in different geographic areas. We can imagine that there will be a breakdown of global systems of communications and trade, and so these communities need to be independent, organic, and self-sustaining. They need to be tolerant and generous, welcoming all.
cancerous distraction.. to me this is a red flag we’re doing it wrong
This creates another problem. We can imagine that there will be other more powerful groups that are all vying for scarce resources, especially humans to enslave. These include city-states, military units, corporations, bandits, and religious cults.
how is that a 3rd or 4th or whatever coming?.. that’s same song
need: garden-enough ness.. graeber stop at enough law et al..
This brings us to the third and final principle of the Ark. To survive, these communities need to be strategic and diplomatic, forming alliances with competing powers. But ultimately the communities of the Ark must be willing to fight and die for what they believe in. It is the sacrifice and devotion of these communities that will allow them to dominate and win over opposing powers.
oh my.. re ness et al.. cancerous distraction
But these communities must remember that their mission is not to become another empire that will decline and decay. They must help humanity escape the doom loop. They must work together to create the Ether, a new period of collective consciousness that allows us to transverse dimensions, imagine realities, and unlock eternity and infinity.
