    "Justice on Judgement/Recompense Day after we all die, yes we don't know whether we will be saved, but we believe some will be. What's the harm if some of us try to change our "ills of mankind" as you term, we die happy that we tried to change and not scared of death when it's our time. "

    No harm as long as it doesn't include the assumed "God given" right to harm or destroy others simply because they have a different view of the mystery of life and how it should be lived.
    Unfortunately the Abrahamic religions in particular do not have a very good track record.

    In any case my little 'law" was a question about correlation between the degree that the message and indications of their religion's founder are actually put into practice versus the preoccupation with interpretations derived from written scripture to conjure up the most fantastical scenarios about apocalyptic ministering of Divine justice .... "very soon".
    Those who genuinely try to put their religion into practice sooner or later begin to understand that one's own being is the field of battle between those mythic forces such as God, Satan, Christ, Mohammad, Dragons, Angels, second coming etc etc.

    The prolific rise of all the obsessives who have made the Bible or Quran a subject of idol worship and substituted it for God come to mind. More comfortable to sit in the lounge room and pour over the travel books of others rather than undertake one's own difficult journey.

    The JW as one example have excelled in this by apparently convincing themselves that blatant proselytizing and recruitment is actually just spreading the good news on behalf of God.
    How lucky is God.
