G_d wants us to know our life.  Our existence. The beginning and the end, or the beginning and the conclusion of things, so that we will live with respect for what G_d established as life for human beings.  And be at the same time, knowing the path of our progress, the path of our development, and what will be demanded of us, as we live year by year, generation by generation.  What will be demanded of us.

G_d created us as one human type called Adam.  That father type, that original pattern upon which all of us have been formed, the first human life that G_d made.

And we know that as we begin to grown and multiply and produce, there is going to be demanded of us a uniting of effort.  A working together as one.  G_d made us one, and as we grow and demands increase upon us, we are going to have to live and work as one.

We have lived to see on this earth our world become one living room for all of us on the many continents.  Asia, Europe, Africa, America on all the continents.  We have seen all the men and women around the world and our children put into one living room now. That the African called the village, the global village that we are calling it now, one village.  It seems that we have been put into one village or one living room.  We can’t escape each other.  We have to see each other.  TV will make sure that that happens. We’re going to see each other.

If we make a mess in one part of the world that’s going to effect another part of the world, the media will let us know it.  TV will show us that mess. So we can’t hide anymore from one another.  We can’t create problems for one another that won’t be discovered for 50 yrs.  That won’t be discovered for 100 yrs.  That use to be the world.  The world of today is not that any more.   If we make a mess for each other that’s going to affect the other, we’re going to see it right away.

So we have to live together.  And this is G_d’s Plan. G_d says man’s community was once one community.  Community of our first ancestor.  And G_d is telling us that to tell us,  that you have to prepare yourself to live again as one community.

It doesn’t mean we’re going to become one political body or one national body or one nation.  No.  There are going to be many nations.  Doesn’t mean we’re going to become one cultural body.  No.

It means we’re going to become one in our respect for humanity, for the excellence of man created by G_d.   And if we don’t do that, we won’t have a place in the future except the place in hell. Suffering miserably in this life and in the next.

G_d is greater. Allahu Akbar.
