No More Edens Left On Earth.

Okay, hold your nose, it's probably gonna get pretty stinkin' in here. !

I'm not a Christian. I do however believe there was a MAN named Jesus who was a superhuman. Healer, Teacher, rabble rouser, out for reforms in Religion and the politics of the Temples.
Do I believe in the Biblical God of Abraham and Moses, and therefore the Creation of man and woman(Adam & Lilith) from dirt, and Eve from a little thing called a rib bone? Nope, not even.
I would love to believe in the place we have been taught to call The Garden of Eden. Wow! That would be nice, huh? Trees and fields and wildflowers and animals walking unafraid and calm...Sweet winds gently soughing through the tall grasses . Clean air to breathe and clean, clear water to drink. Food at your fingertips. Good Food, untainted with chemicals. Uncloned, safe and nutritious foods. Fruits, vegetables, roots, nuts, berries, and meat for carnivores if they choose...but humanely done, if that's possible.

Do you know where there's an Eden? Anywhere? A real Eden? One with no starving peoples and animals due to droughts and famines?Due to joblessness? Due to mis-mangement? Due to anything! A place that has no People whose bellies swell and distend until their thin bones can no longer support them. People who must choose maggoty road kill when they can even find that much. People whose children, their babies die in their arms begging for just SOMETHING in their mouths, and the mothers or fathers who choose to maybe stop their breathing and then kill themselves to stop the pain and the hunger.
Oh my heart is squeezed to a tiny pulsing piece of raw human pain to see and know this. My tiny contributions are NOTHING. Whole nations must stand up and do the right things, ENTIRE NATIONS need to stop their billionjillionaires from hoarding their UNTAXED funds.....C'mon ALL OF YOU WHO HAVE ENOUGH to feed a whole country without ever even knowing it's gone! HELP your fellow humans. So many children have never known that there could be 3 meals a day. A meal every few days sustains them, barely, but they know no differently.
Children in the Americas who are so poor, so cold, so un- seen...the Appalachians was stripped, killed, turned into a wasteland, there are no jobs to make the money to buy the food and the heating oil , or the electricity. That is spreading. Droughts, earthquakes, hurricanes, wildfires, no jobs, homes lost, homes that will never be recovered.
Aw shit. Eden never was really real, huh? :(*****
