Humanity's existence

Have you ever wondered about our domicile, Earth?  Do you think about our role in this world? We, you and I, came into being the same way, through a woman's pain.  Without choice, with no knowledge and completely devoid of capability, we were inserted into this astonishing collection of bright physicality. We were made a part of billions upon billions of planets, solar systems and galaxies.

Our birth or creation was a very bloody and complicated age old process.  As we grew and aged, we were taught, learned and understood that we were part of someone and some order. Situated on a medium sized planet in our solar system, we embraced our order and environment and felt as though we were their invincible architects and masters.
  
Religious leaders teach us about spirituality and everlasting life after our physical existence is extinguished. They actually attempt to portray the environment of that life.  although we sometimes give passing thought to our own demise, the instincts of survival are so deeply instilled in us that we mostly feel that death is for others.
 
As part of an order, whether that order is religious, racial or national, our feeling that we have a right to all that Earth offers, whether earned or taken from others, is greatly enhanced by the purposes and policies of our order.  Of course, the power of our order, relative to others, heavily influences our actions toward other groups and nations.
  
We get so caught up in the self serving rhetoric of world wide military-industrial complexes, we feel that we are all powerful (or the most powerful nation on earth or on our continent). Alas, however, no matter how rich, poor or powerful, whether we are citizens of powerful nations, members of expansive religious orders, look alikes of dominant racial groups or just part of anyone who stokes our ego, we are culled out of this world one by one.

There are no exceptions! There are no options! The physical brightness that we came into at birth will be turned off. We will be extracted from this place that has massaged us. We will take nothing with us, not even our feeling of importance.
  
There is a non-denominational book that addresses life in both the physical and spiritual realms. The book is serious, profound and states that it must be read by everyone. It even coins words that are gender neutral. If  you are interested, you can read excerpts at http://www.godscontinuingword.com/ .
