Nirvana - the ideal home


 I am not going to have time to do this subject justice but please join in as we try to think through the confused drivers that affect humans expectations of the best place to live . And before any of us presume to do that,  I will remind you that heavens character is largely unknown and I expect so is the best place for YOU to be here on this rolling ball . 
Let me remind you of the paradox that Chesterton expounded on when he tries to talk about when talking about patriotism and loving the place where you are placed .

the good book hints that the best place for you is where you are placed . 
We don't decide just what space we are born to and most of us naturally want to explore beyond the constraints of that place ,Go figure 

 The earth is never satisfied
We , too i suggest can't be trusted to know what place is better, The earth is never satisfied and most of its human inhabitants seem to be inclined to think and act that way. 

Some questions then ( please add more ) 

  1. Is it possible to discover a final resting place on earth ?
  2. Are we at risk of not settling down in a good place in our search for a better place 
  3. is the scarcity or abundance profile of a place really all that important? 
  4. Is the best place fro us often in the place where our creator. cretarors placed us ?
  5. Is the danger to not grow up in the Creators care -
  6. How shall be best understand natural rebellion, natural ignorance , the risk environments drivers of nature.

Some reality checks ( Note this list will be temporary and to be edited ) 

  1. Population preoccupations . too often used by the simple to promote things that wont work 
  2. Population preoccupations coupled with popular political movements . Marxism , Stalin Pol Pot , Chinese and Russian Communism . Socialism .
    Let me suggest that these very real in tested practice failure movements have largely proven to be crude  quick fix movements which have not worked and cannot be expected to work on their own _ 
    We are right to be fearful when racism is the vehicle where we have populations of people who are seen to be less valuable and are therefore not needed , Some people esp leaders act tyrannically to reduce population by creating a them and us mentality. 

  3. Carrying capacity is a real consideration . Sshould never be assummed to be adominant one because humans know to colonise small spaces and we all do benefit from moving away from focsing beyond primary production . 
    many countries who are agrarian dominat have been at risk of overpopulation so they need help to reform and find new economic boundaries . 
    Consider Island ecology and adaption with that frame . Look up Lord Howe island  yes a population limit is desirable and acts a  natural and sound  boundary check, 
  4. Lowering value of manual labour 
  5.
