107 youngsters killed last week in Thailand for religious beliefs, a universe will answer how to stop this nonsense.

By Anonymous

May 6, 2004 -- The Interview:
The Universe Jury: So world we understand that you are very sick and may become a danger to other members of the universe.
The World answers: Yes I know I need help.

The Universe Jury: Well lets hear the story start at the beginning
The World answers: I was in great shape at cooling down phase the dinosaurs were thudding about but no harm happened.

The Universe Jury: So what started the problem
The World answers: Well the humans arrived

The Universe Jury: How?
The World answers: I'm not sure if they evolved from the hairy apes or naked with fig leafs.

The Universe Jury: OK what next.
The World answers: Well things were not too bad at first as in all things these humans multiplied, they were all over me.

The Universe Jury: Great because you know world you are the envy of the Universe a garden of plenty nice atmosphere plenty to eat drink these humans had it made.
The World answers: Yes but humans started killing animals and them selves immediately

The Universe Jury: Well they need to eat
The World answers: Killing for fun or because they wanted someone's woman or land.

The Universe Jury: AH! That's different the balance of the Universe in danger
The World answers: They started to get religion

The Universe Jury: What is that?
The World answers: Well they have an omnipotent being in the sky

The Universe Jury: In the sky you mean in the universe does any one here know about this being in the sky?
The World answers: Well I am not sure but I think 'God', and 'Allah' live in the sky

The Universe Jury: Oh there are two?
The World answers: They have hundreds of different types of religion.
These use sacred texts called the Bible, Koran. Put together by men directed by the Gods. These have rules by which the people live in love and peace

The Universe Jury: Well nothing wrong with that
The World answers: But for nearly 2,000 years now they have been killing each other in the name of these religions.

The Universe Jury: Ah so that's where the world illness comes from
The World answers: Well only part millions of humans are killed off.A religious group called Christians states that every human is born into sin and unless they join their particular God, at death they will go underground to burn in a continual fire. All others cannot be freed from sin-evil unless they join them in worshipping their God.

The Universe Jury: Oh do you have a fire inside you World?
The World answers: No not really I haven't felt one.

The Universe Jury: GO On
The World answers: Another group called Islam says that every one must join their group. Certain sections say to kill a non member allows his killer to join 'Allah' in the sky.

The Universe Jury: Here we go again any one seen this happening up here? Do all the Humans have these things in the sky
The World answers: No some groups blow up the buildings of prayer /meditation and kill off all the priests who sing the songs of
religion. Their master plan is that every person has equal share of everything available.

The Universe Jury: Ah that sounds a little better what about these groups
The World answers: Well a few people are in control. The masses, live in a sorry state of limited food, clothing, warmth and shelter.
Those with the power live in richness and plenty, spending their time holding on to control.

The Universe Jury: So greed for riches and power holds back a good idea?
The World answers: But this is only part of the story the concern is the way these humans are harming the air and the world. Substances are grown to smoke,inject to kill themselves. Chopping down the protective trees.

The Universe Jury: Well that's sounds good too many people is bad for you World
The World answers: They have a few people and organizations that own
the wealth of the world. These see to it that other humans die from
lack of food-water or from drugs-pills made, then the tanks, guns, rockets mines every nation's people causes death to make money

The Universe Jury: Well that's fine they are helping by making sure selection takes place.
The World answers: Yes that was nice when they had bows and arrows but now they have weapons that will destroy all the living things
on the planet.

The Universe Jury: World to be rid of these nasty humans will be good. Upsetting our balance. They sound useless they have not learned to live on the planet in peace. They have been killing for a leaders ego, to grab more land, or to gain new religious converts. Never meeting objectives of love-peace for their religious ideology. They have used talent to kill, stockpile money with a high cost in suffering. A self-destruct world will take millions of years to recover. You will be pure world, free of this nasty human virus condition.
The World answers: I would rather stay clean and pure of poison. These humans are so screwed up with:anger; envy; fear; greed; guilt; lust and sloth.They cannot think straight. Would you Universe members provide some ideas for these humans? They need superior intellect to show them how to live without fear-suffering.

The Universe Jury:We shall put our antennae together to create plans for these humans. Methods they can use to save the world, let us hope they take the medication.
