  Well I don't think there's much you can do, except wait until the disclosure and announcements. I've tried telling religious people about this stuff, they don't take it seriously, they're too into their beliefs. There's not much you can do. You can try telling them about it, and then hopefully the seed will be planted, even if they don't believe it, so when the time comes, they won't be so shocked. But ultimately you can't really convince them of anything. I've found, most people tend to believe what they want to believe...and you can put a ton of evidence in front of them, it usually doesn't work. Some people just have a very closed one track mind that's difficult to pry open. Sometimes you just have to let it be.

  How to cope with it? Well I think you just have to be patient..and understanding too, try to understand where they're coming from. They have a lot of vested interest in their religion...and I'm convinced that people like that will only change their beliefs when their prophets like Jesus get here and sets the record straight. Like there's no way to convince them that the Bible is flawed lol They find ways around it, they find ways to justify it, they find ways to apologize for it...you can use all the logic and morality in the world, but it doesn't work. So...just try to be patient..learn as much as you can about their religion and how it connects to ascension and real spirituality...so you'll be in a better position to help them make the transition once it actually starts happening. That's my advice to you.

    Wonderful advice John.  You are so right about people's beliefs.  Unless faced with physical proof of things, they will continue with whatever they have faith in themselves.  Because faith is a personal thing, it is hard to change anyone's mind, and the more you try to dispute what they believe the more devout people become.  

    Cherie, what John said about patience being needed is so true, it is about the only thing you can do.  Just remember that they have had their beliefs for a lot longer, and they have based their life around it.  The future will take care of itself...Please do not worry.

      Right that's the thing about spirituality, it very much is at the core of people's hearts...and their lives...so you can't really mess with it without getting some push back. If it really was that easy to change them, organized religion wouldn't exist today lol So you can't really change them...they'll change when it strikes them...until then, there's not much you can do. As for the disclosure and announcements and all that, well there's alot of info on the net about it, but nothing real concrete that you can point at and go, oh see, it's gonna happen. So it all really comes down to what you choose to believe. And..people have a right to choose whatever they like. Eventually, if they're wrong, they'll learn.
