Nations of the world
"The nations of the world are facing the risk of great instability—promoting competition and conflict and the risk of war over the remaining resources."[1]
Your citizenship
"You are a citizen of your world. From a Greater Community perspective, you are not an American or a Chinese. You are not an Indian or a Russian or a Polynesian. You are a citizen of one world." [2]
"The Greater Community is your new home. It is not new, but it is your new home while you are in the world. You do not live in a village any more, a little municipality or even one nation alone anymore. You are a citizen of a whole world." [3]
Economic conquest
"Conquest today is economic conquest. That is how nations are brought under control—under foreign control and dependence. They are brought into a world system of finance and become reliant upon that. And then an individual nation’s sovereignty and independence is overridden by the requirement for resources from beyond their region. This is precisely how the Greater Community works in this region of space."[4]
War
"Think of the history of humanity and its great battles, its great conquests and how utterly destructive this has been—that so many people should sacrifice so that a few may enrich themselves." [5]
"When empires are built and other nations are exploited, this leads to war." [6]
“With war and conflict, humanity will weaken and further its own decline. Should this be continued, there will be no winners. There will be no victorious nations or groups, for the world will decline. Then everyone will lose security. Then everyone will become weaker and more vulnerable to powers and influences from beyond the world who are determined to gain access and control here.” [7]
