Epiphany
I just started watching "Guns, Germs and Steel" on my local PBS station. A New Guinea native asks Dr. Jared Diamond why white people have more cargo than his people? Dr. Diamond states that America is the richest nation on Earth. When he said that, I had an epiphany. We might be the wealthiest materially, but spiritually, we seem to be the poorest. I live in the poorest country on Earth. God cares little about material wealth. God or Universal Consciousness is only interested in playing with form and creating new forms that it can use to manipulate and play in this Universe. Mankind has lost touch with God. The Inuit and other native peoples are wealthier than I am.
