    Who believes that the beatitudes is just a list promises that distinguishes humanity from the material presence of Earth's Nature and allows that man is only blessed to be undecided for the accomplished trust of living in the midst of God's land and acquisition of the property for various exploitation of it. The untouched land; is not explained but only the individuals can make excuses for delusions there (DAS).

    Mankind were intended to be stewards of the Earth,bringing the whole Earth to paradise conditions. The way Mankind has stewarded the Earth so far has been under sinful conditions and is no example of how the Earth was intended to stewarded.

    It is somehow "blessed" to see the sins common to one another rather than suffered each to himself. The modern condition realizes how the sins are out of the originally essential "hate" (Pascal and the Original Sin of uncertainty to living with trust for one another). Blessedly from the social reality by the condition of matter living with us in our midst, material existence is as much a lie to oneself as to the other. Beatitudes are the trust of first to eighth: becoming as children of God explicitly poor in spirit, then righteous. Mourning for our sins is never wholly any one person's fault, and for the whole it is appeasing in some sort of man/God's appreciated Air for common decency and consolation.

    It is not Nature to understand materialism being there; rather it is an ideal forgiveness which allows materialism the indifference for explanations. These are about nature which usually occur for science nowadays without a common ground.

    Pascal perhaps was against environmentalist ideals for a common ground of scientific justifications and social order.:biker:

    Poor in spirit is an enigmatic expression. Poor in spirit does not mean weak in spirit nor does it mean poor in a material sense but that a man by the strength of spirit makes himself as though destitute, material things having as little meaning to him as never having had them or known about them.(matt5;3)

    Comfort is the end of mourning.(matt5;4)

    After mardi gras come the street sweepers in the quiet aftermath.(matt5;5)

    The mind longs for comprehension.(matt5;6)

    Creation is a law without opposite.(matt5;7)

    Blessed are the sincere seeking.(matt5;8)

    Awakening in peace we share in peace.(matt5;9)

    The first obstacle peace must pass is the desire to be rid of it.(matt5;10)

    As you are the beacon of peace that desire becomes to be rid of you.(matt5;11)

    That quote I was just thinking comes from Nietzsche. "Yes" he claims instead of the usual "No" for the unruly reveller. Meanwhile in balance the creative law lets the respectable dignitary off the hook.

    It is esoteric lineage from a universal curriculum, (the only way,) which comes in many forms. The time you take to learn it is optional.
