I'd say it's that revolutions are won by the organised. And that's what we are missing. What's this "organizing" you speak of? It sounds very quaint. And why are you opposed to "paving the way for paradise on earth", when it's just a matter of "transcend[ing] our inability to simply be", of "hav[ing] minds that are able to survive in an environment with a lot less conflict" and that are receptive to "a peaceful, harmonious world"? And while you may suppose your hope for revolution comes from a desire for justice, it's really that you "fear an end to drama and conflict" even more than you "fear the end of the world". Face it Sue, you have an "addiction" to such things. With that attitude you'll never be a "utopia prepper" like Johnstone. Shame on you.
