The Phoenix Force shows Jean what mankind will EVENTUALLY become...Eternity...after MILLIONS of YEARS of exponential increases in EVOLUTIONARY GROWTH. And again narration refers "mankind's role as the universe's EVENTUAL destroyer and savior." LOL. Man destroys and saves the universe not the PF.
Do you not see the contradiction here? I certainly do, along with an unfortunate misinterpretation. Unfortunate because it has resulted in you wasting your time.
As you have highlighted and as you seem to accept here, the Stranger confirms the Phoenix Force to be both the BEGINNING AND THE END, of the cycle. He doesn’t say the Phoenix is merely a part of the cycle, that’s just something you’ve added. He marks it out as the cycles origin and endpoint. A notion that Eternity later confirms.
The Phoenix Force shows Jean nothing. It is a visualization created by the Stranger. (The fact that it comes out of Strangers chest should have proved to be a slight giveaway. ) After having stated Phoenixes role in the process the Stranger goes on to visualize it. He shows Jean a Phoenix Force engulfed D.N.A chain emerging from the planet Earth slowly forming into Eternity. All of this completely in line with Death and Prosh’s earlier comments regarding mankind having the potential which the Phoenix power could make reality.
