New Radiation Belt

[Ankh]

It's quite clear from the Ra channelings that the council watches over Earth and makes sure we are protected from complete annihilation. It follows then that is there were a massive danger to Earth, there would be "inexplicable" phenomenon that protect us.

No, in fact, Ra says that souls get help if they are nuked, but even in this scenario we have free will - i.e., we're on our own.
Civilizations have done this over and over - blown themselves up before they finished 3D. Mars is a prime example. If we blow ourselves up, we face 100% of this.
The council does just that - it provides counsel and guidance. It isn't the idiot brigade

I was thinking the same thing but I couldn't find the quote to be sure of what it said. I just remember initially thinking what Guardian said then examining the quote more closely and realized that our world and its inhabitants are NOT protected from blowing ourselves up but our souls ARE protected from getting somehow damaged by a nuclear blast.

Ra: I am Ra. Those who were destroyed, not by radiation, but by the trauma of the energy release, found not only the body/mind/spirit complex made unviable, but also a disarrangement of that unique vibratory complex you have called the spirit complex, which we understand as a mind/body/spirit complex, to be completely disarranged without possibility of re-integration. This would be the loss to the Creator of part of the Creator and thus we were given permission, not to stop the events, but to ensure the survival of the, shall we say, disembodied mind/body/spirit complex. This we did in those events which you mention, losing no spirit or portion or holograph or microcosm of the macrocosmic Infinite One.
