[quote:The Alkahest:MV81MTY4MjY2Xzk0OTU0NTgwXzk3MzRCODE2] [quote:Anonymous Coward 73963629:MV81MTY4MjY2Xzk0OTUzOTc0XzgzMENBMTFE] No its not a gift, the entity that wants you to be thankfull for this cursed earth is Satan and is always mistaken for god. [/quote] There's some truth to this, but it's much more complicated. Some of us came to earth to break it. Others were fooled and trapped here. As strange as it sounds, God still has love for his fallen creations and they can still be redeemed - but only if they remit. By living a holy life as best as we can in this nightmare of a world, we are teaching Satan about the nature of spirit. We came to this world not so much to be taught by it, but to teach it ourselves. We can denounce the illusion of the material and bring heaven to earth - or destroy this world and return to God.

Original Message
I think there may have been times and places when life was a gift for people. The first 150 years of America may have been a time when life was a gift because freedom was possible.
My belief is that life in a world without freedom is not a gift. Being born as a slave with no hope of being able to break free is a curse. That's the situation we face today. Modern life is a curse in my opinion.
