Spirituality. This is why so many people can be convinced to stay inside from a disease with a terrifying 99% survival rate.
Organized religions stifle true spirituality, attempting to give human explanations to concepts that we will never be able to fully grasp (such as infinity). They're better than making fleeting pleasures the point of existence, however. Either way, hedonism has become the new religion and everyone is so afraid of death that they never really live.
There is a difference between simply surviving and living. Between being a human insect and a God among men.
The earth is one. For example. Chemtrails change the way bacteria work in the atmosphere. The body has to try to adapt to the changes, because the atmosphere reaches right down to us all.
In addition, even though many formal churches stifle spirituality, we all need to congregate with others who believe like we do. Hugging a tree isn't enough.
It all has to do with the all-pervading Spirit. The Holy Spirit doesn't only exist where like believers are, or with religious folks congregating with others of like faith. He exist throughout nature and outer space, as well.
The trick is, finding the truth of what He wants for us. The second trick is following and obeying that truth. Love, and faith in Jesus-salvation are two of His requirements. Filling up on His Word, the Bible, shows us how.
