It's all about not being grateful for what people have now. I agree with Moshe that 2000 years ago, people would have thought that we live in paradise now. This life was not given to us to waste. It's a gift. Appreciate it and celebrate it!

Our best chance at seeing a paradise earth is to work hard to repair the damage to the earth, to work on making our family life fulfilling, to help make our communities better places, to get involved in government, education systems, charities or other endeavors to help, to encourage others to reach out and do what they can to make a difference. If each of us take responsibility for the things around us, then yes, we and our children may see a paradise earth. if you are awaiting for god to make it happen you are missing the opportunity of a life time to make a difference. If god does step-up, he will probably be pleased that you did everything in your power to make things better.
All the best,

Zarco,

in a paradise, with no challenges to face and overcome,
or accept when there is no victory, how does one become
valiant, or develop courage, or empathy or display valour,
or any of the traits and characteristics that enoble our
humanity?it is hard for me to view the prevailing concept of
"paradise" as a good thing -

I would suppose you believe 100 Million killed in two World Wars something that enobled humanity? That was one beautiful display of valor and empathy- courage and all the rest of that crap, wasn't it? Was that what you'd view as a good thing? Yeah! I guess you would! Wannabe

It's easy to get to Paradise.
All you have to do is blow yourself up in a marketplace full of people that don't believe whatever you do.... or is that just a myth of Middle Eastern goat herders?
