Very true. Religion/spirituality preaches Absolutism. Many currents preach that the absolute truth can be known by humans.
Enlightened guru's, self-realized souls, liberated godman, lightworkers.. they are the authorities of today's spirituality.

Nope. Just as Jesus and Saint Paul didn't lived in the endtimes (although they claimed they did), nor did the people who witnessed world war two were living in the endtimes, nor those in the Middle Ages, or those living under colonial rule etc. etc. etc. Many people like to interpret old scripture and fit it in their own time, to make sense of the randomness and destructive forces in nature.
