Still, with all that being said, the original point stands.

Scientist, especially earth scientists, study what they do and become who they are principally out of a shared respect and affection for the earth and our environment. This impetus in my estimation, seeing whet we as humans do to our planet, in some cases clouded what should always be their primary raison d'etre ... the search for the truth.
So they see what they see, they try to tell us, and we keep on doing what we've always done ... we keep raping this planet and all its inhabitants unimpeded.
Take my entire OP, and substitute "NWO" with "well meaning but disingenuous scientists" and to me, that would be the most realistic sequence of events that have led us to this juncture.

I lied to you to do you a favor ...
I lied to you because your species consumes itself ...
I lied to you because you're a child ...
I lied to you because you're self destructive ...
I lied to you because you are indifferent ...
I lied to you because you won't change unless I threaten you with death ...
I lied to you to save you from yourself!
Because you deplete your oceans of life, you deprive your forests of trees, you kill each other with pollutants and carcinogens, you treat your garden like a dump, you consume without regard to your future, you wipe out species for caprice, you're apathetic towards your home and your fellow man, you snub your nose at nature and fail to live in harmony with it, you fight wars over liquids, you poison and destroy everything you touch.

The NWO has noted that many of you seem slightly vexed with the NWO.
Though not unexpected, it hurts the NWO's feelings.
Some have a very tenuous grasp of what the NWO is ... aliens???
Mostly the NWO has noted that no one has addressed or refuted the following NWO declaration:
"Because you deplete your oceans of life, you deprive your forests of trees, you kill each other with pollutants and carcinogens, you treat your garden like a dump, you consume without regard to your future, you wipe out species for caprice, you're apathetic towards your home and your fellow man, you snub your nose at nature and fail to live in harmony with it, you fight wars over liquids, you poison and destroy everything you touch."
You efforts are simply focused on attacking the poor NWO who has your best interests in mind.
And you wonder why you need to be treated like children ...
So as a mere mortal canine, I now ask you this: What if there's no big bad boogieman like the "NWO" ... what if it's just us being us ... who will you blame then?
From the sound of most of the responses so far, the mirror is but an abstract concept to so many of you ... whereas the NWO apparently is as sure as the sunrise.
You see the problem?

Some of you really need to try and read entire threads.
Short version for the cliff note people: I'm NOT the NWO and I was accusing myself. The "YOU" in the OP is addressing my own human failings, limitations, frustrations, and shortcomings. I really didn't think I needed to spell this out, but there you have it.
Though I have to say, observing the remarks of those who have read only the OP and are stuck on the NWO thing, I should have put this thread in the psychology forum.
Interesting trigger some of you folks have.
