ARISE AWARE Christians pray to their human God imagining physical resurrection someday on Earth as in Heaven (!) only because they're driven by the terrifying prod of flesh in desperation to eat or be eaten, beat or be beaten on this planet of predation where every precious self an exquisite ego-construction but doomed to death and destruction when age breaks down their health and they yearn for rebirth. Yet each cleric, learned and wise preaching the gospel to masses also chokes and thrashes when his soul departs to rise and live forever in Heaven, not on Earth. Thus no human deity, no Messiah or Jesus can divinely save us from our grim reality that we humans overpopulate to grow commercial power on this planet turning sour as bio-systems degenerate more species go extinct, but people play their games to insulate their brains from that ecocidal brink with addictive medication ending the human race in a suicidal disgrace of global toxification -- unless the guiding spirit of love outside of time speaks in magical rhyme and all awaken to hear it.
