So what does this mean?
It’s what I asked, and I’m sure what you’re
wondering too.
Dexter Phillips told me he doesn’t really know, all
he has are theories – but his eyes brimmed with zeal as he told me of them.
Maybe, he said, we are prophets. The fact that we’re all having these dreams
must obviously mean something, and perhaps we’re here to warn everyone else. If
we all come together, then possibly we can find some way to make people listen
to us and advert whatever it is that’s going to happen. The belief bubbled in
his voice, his words becoming faster while keeping their precision. He clearly thinks that we are saviours,
here to warn humanity of impending doom.
Of course there have been people crying ‘The End
is Nigh’ for thousands of years. And when you offer your evidence of impending
doom as some alleged shared dreams, then people might not be inclined to pay
attention. But, as I found on Sunday afternoon, Dexter Phillips is a man
people listen to.
