"We are powerful Spiritual Beings and all the power in Heaven and Earth is given unto us. We have the power to change the hell we have made here with the assistance of a loving God" X, I am in Murray's camp on this. I read the other day that the net worth of the three wealthiest people in the world EXCEEDS the annual Gross Domestic Product of the 45 poorest nations in the world. Also, that in the wealthiest country (USA), the net worth of the top 1% of the population exceeds the net worth of the the bottom 90% of the population. I am not arguing that wealth = happiness, but would you not agree that those figures suggest (at least somewhat), that the vast majority of those in the world live in poverty, malnutrition and disease? And if so, is that not closer to what would generally be considered to be hell than heaven? Your world may be a relatively prosperous, healthy and happy one. If so, very good. But that may not represent the total human condition (to say nothing of the rest of the inhabitants of the planet)! Namaste! Jim
