Intervention

I believe that the Earth should be preserved indefinitely by some form of intervention; and it doesn't matter to me who intervenes. So long as they are able and willing to do the work I will consider them well motivated and a personal friend.

Clearly life on Planet Earth has a definite beginning, and is preceded by the Universe as a whole. Even the Universe itself has a definite beginning and we should assume is preceded by something else. I call that something else God's Eternal Kingdom, which i consider to be an undivided Kingdom. Our mortal lives take place within the greater Kingdom, and within the presence of God because God is ever-present within the Universe. To the best of my understanding, it is not possible to be separated from God's presence, we depend upon it for our ability to be self-aware. For every kind of historical event there must be at least one observer. From where we stand we can see a great multitude of Individual Person's, each one of them observes the Universe from a unique perspective. We appear to be separated from one another and we do not share a common personal experience. Whatever one of us has experienced in mortal life constitutes a measure of personal wealth, the experience has value. Whether we deem the experience to have been pleasant or unpleasant we might learn something that brings about personal growth. We progress along a path to maturity with no clear obtainable goal, at times we endure, and sometimes it seems we fail to endure. Many of us have struggled at times, we fought the battles that our survival seemed to require. Occasionally one of use chooses not to fight, we submit to the idea that some circumstances are beyond our ability to control. Our struggles may always seem to conclude with unhappiness, and some of us stop believing that we can be happy. Some of us have followed the noble path of personal sacrifice rather than making demands upon the lives of others. If we are unwilling to take a life in order in insure our own survival then we may not be preserved from another person's will to injure us. So a few have suffered injury while believing that the greatest battle had already been won. An uncountable number of human beings have proven that they were willing to die in the service of some noble cause, and in many cases willing to kill. For even one life to be saved may be noble enough reason to risk our own lives, or to demand the sacrifice of someone else's life.

All of the players in the Great Game of Life may be ranked in a variety of ways; but our personal rank matters less than the fact we participated. The human family is one family, and if we choose not to see it this way then we are out of touch with reality. There is a personal relationship between ourselves and every other human being, the matter can not be made subject to personal choice. These relationships bind us together whether or not we like the circumstances. Every single one of us was born here on Planet Earth and we belong to the Earth as much as it belongs to each of us. If we tried to change our world, or chose not to make an effort; if we have believed that we were powerful or powerless, we share a common fate. Our species succeeds or fails all together; as a species we either survive or fail to survive and become extinct. Whether or not the people are able to continue our world may fail us, if we do not destroy ourselves mother nature may still have the final word. In the long run we are unable to preserve the viability of Planet Earth. We can only hope that we are deserving of the intervention of a higher-power and a greater technology than we possess. And its hard to say what would make us more or less deserving. Perhaps we can by surviving perform a service valued by these higher-powers. The motivation doesn't matter to me, so long as the work gets done I will call it good.
