==Evolution of the narrative==
According to Nidle's channelling, the Federation remained "dedicated to massive first contact as soon as possible" but the spiritual transformation of the human being into the divine form was now the main focus.  The Earth rulers were identified as a secret cabal who have negatively directed humanity for millennia, but would be slowly removed by the Federation.  'Star Gates' were being placed in the upper atmosphere to aid transformation, and special 'Galactic and Medical Teams' were assisting people when they slept.  

The narrative now portrayed Earth as a vitally important planet in the universe due to the exalted role of humanity.  It was a special 'showcase' that would act as a switch in the spiritual transformation of the Milky Way.  Helland notes that the concept became so anthropocentric it included a special day count for humanity on the Earth, instituted by the galactic "Time Keepers".<ref name=Helland2000p143>Helland, Christopher (2000) p143</ref>  

Despite the failed prophecies, by the year 2000 the movement was continuing to develop its membership base and claiming to have hundreds of Planetary Activation Groups in over 29 countries.<ref name=Helland2000p142/>

The Planetary Activation Organisation is classified as a progressive millennialist group because it promises that all of humanity may achieve collective salvation and the attainment of a terrestrial paradise.<ref name=Wojcik2003p294/>
