give me some intelectual ammo for convicing others

[Jnana]

In my opinion, the important part of awakening is not becoming aware of coming earth changes. It's the spiritual awakening - becoming aware of the greater universe out there and the kinds of beings we really are. From there, one can begin to seek the truth about worldly matters - just how many things we are all constantly lied to about - which is just about everything.

I think many people are scared silly deep inside but are in active denial. It's almost like talking to an addict. An intellectual approach just doesn't get you very far. If you can find some one who is ready to start seeking answers but doesn't know where to look you may have better luck.
