Jails / Prisons : PRISON EARTH

[Afru Shukuwr]

Who believes that you are here on earth because of something wrong you did in heaven are somewhere else? I know some think earth is hell so if you believe there is a good God some people must have messed up to get here. I compare Earth to hell because it cant be close as good as heaven. What ever you think the perfect place would be like that would be heaven. Obviously its not the present planet we live on.
Considering the increasing topics on the soul, afterlives, and beforelives helped me to decide on this topic. So is this seen as just Christian rhetoric to African spiritualists here and Im not a Christian or part of any religion. I know Ancient Egyptians believed in afterlife so Im wishing for some response on this. I realize I could have chose many titles for this so many types of responses are welcomed.

you have to remember that everyone has their own idea of[heaven-hell]for some just a warm place to lay one's head is heaven and to another having riches and fame mean little because they're bored so it's hell...it was the temptations who once said-you make your heaven and hell here on earth.

Lets use you as an example. Do you see yourself generally in heaven right now every day of your life regardless of what you view heaven as. Are you in hell? Somewhere in between? If its in between it cant be heaven. Think of the best day of your life. Do you think there could be a state of mind 10 or a 100 times greater than that?

ok,this is MY HEAVEN...everyday that i can get out of bed,go out into the world to do what i have to do,as long as my family is healthy and can go about their lives without being threatened or frightened,as long as i can come to the place i call home and know that i will find peace within those walls,food in the pantry and music on the turntable[gotta have my tunes]then that is my HEAVEN..and for me at this stage of life that's more than enough.

um

I compare Earth to hell because it cant be close as good as heaven.

i used to think like this then i realize

I'M IN HEAVEN BECAUSE I'M LIVING

i realized white people are not comfortable UNLESS chaos is present

thus YOU/US we feel the "hell" but my brethren

thru the pain administered by the "eurotrix" we've been fooled

we are here already

life is too be cherished but the have us in survival mode and on the grind

to stop us from seeing the truth, real "magic"
