7. Aren't we always called to be the best person we can be? If so make that your path
I don't know about most of what you have written about. I do know that channeling can be full of problems. Even the best messages can be subtlety altered by even the best channel. And as you spoke of some connect with less than pure intentioned beings at times so as with all things discernment is needed.

So how do you know who to listen to and not just in channeling but books and so on? This too is a constant question for me. I always come back to this: if the message helps you be the best person you can be, with kindness, honesty, compassion, that assists you in healing any unwell aspects of your being and/or helps you assist others in like fashion there is at least some truth there. Take what helps and heals you and helps you assist others and ignore the rest.

Now personally I hesitate to put any faith into predictions of space brothers coming to earth and saving us from ourselves because I don't believe anyone or any group will do that. I feel that there is help but to expect others to do the job for us is unrealistic. I also discount channelings that put emphasis on 9/11 and recent events because when I look at human history I see so many horrifying acts of mass violence and when I look at the numbers of individual violence in America that has been going on for decades with over 15,000 people murdered each year I wonder how come things like those didn't trigger the same reaction. I remember coming across one channel that had predicted space brothers coming to help us but they turned back because of 9/11, not because of ruwanda, the war in the congo or the former yugoslavia or any of the multitude of other mass and individual horrors committed elsewhere. Basically anyone or anything that does not put equal importance on *all* life makes me doubt or totally discount them.
