The delusion is that we'll be able to afford to save ourselves by such a means as colonization of space. It's a mathematical and economic impossibility without some huge breakthrough in the science of propulsion. Something from which we seem hundreds of years away from developing.

I do not believe we are "hundreds of years" away from developing a much better propulsion system. It is more a lack of willpower, concentration on the goal and funding more than anything else.
