I'm definitely going to read your book. Earth is our home. Our government,and big corporate companies don't care about tomorrow's. We are blindsided with war ruthless kingpins. Proverty is real in the west. Corruption is put of control. And the young are taught to love the race for money. It all wrong

This is really interesting. I'm so impressed that you're digging deep into the reasons and motivations behind our actions and the way you relate that to governmental inaction. This is terrific work!

HI Luke.

Very well said, as always. I think your approach to this existential turmoil is excellent. Watching it all, my reaction is utterly (many would say unrealistically) simple; when you keep asking "Wny?" and don't stop until you hit bedrock, that bedrock always turns out to be the fact that we're doing something we should not do; i.e. something Wrong. I'm convinced that we've brought the (real) human journey to a critical point where we need to realize that wrong (evil, bad, false, against God's will) is NOT a necessary part of life and that our goal must be to eliminate it completely and permanently.

When you've picked yourself up off the floor, consider why Jesus said "Be ye perfect..."; not "Be ye better" or "Be ye much better" but "Be ye perfect, even as your Father in Heaven is perfect." And methinks it's more than pertinent that in the Bible's description of our journey the Prodigal Son (us), after wandering in the wilderness, goes home; something worth pondering deeply.

This is a rough patch, hopefully the low point, but our destiny is (maybe much sooner than we might think) absolutely certain and wonderful beyond the power of words to tell.

Everything good is good, and your work is IMO very good indeed. If we keep putting our drops in the bucket we will be very glad that we did. Go Well, Peter Childs
