Locating The United Garden Of Eden

By Lilia Moody


The United Garden of Eden is a project of visionary people who seek to restore world peace by showing respect and recognizing divergent opinions in the world. The idea resulted from the realization that the world can achieve the peace that existed during the time of Adam and Eve if people were more tolerant and less judgmental. Every person deserves the opportunity to express his or her opinion without being victimized. Divergent social, cultural or religious views should not be breed division.

The platform brings together people of diverse world views, culture and ethnicity in an attempt to forge peaceful coexistence. This can only be achieved if people stopped judging and hating on others. Such hatred has been blamed for so many evils around the world. The groups advocates respect for personal choices regarding the kind of life any person wants to live. Wars and conflicts will be minimized when intolerance and judgment are eliminated.

Humanity is witnessing wars and suffering because some people are greedy and highly prejudicial against others. Some communities consider themselves superior. Such an attitude leads to cycles of war that are increasing by the day. Nuclear technology has opened another frontier that is likely to escalate conflict. The end result can only be death and destruction of property.

Some conflicts and human suffering are avoidable. They include artificial famine, abject poverty and ethnic crisis. They are not natural as many forums have suggested. They result from greed and inequitable sharing of resources. Selfish individuals are therefore responsible for property destruction and artificial human suffering.

The beginning of a new light is the slogan used to indicate an era of restoration. This is an opportunity for human beings to chat a new path towards a peaceful future. It is a society that is not divided on the basis of religion, nationality, social status or ethnicity. There is mutual respect with no community considering itself as superior. Everyone appreciates the intrinsic rights of existence and choice for the other person.

The group marked the return to the Garden of Eden on a day that was christened as the Q-day. This is an event that was prophesied thousands of years back. The prophesy about returning was made by the Mayans before Europeans settled in America. The return has no relationship with the end of the world as was predicted to happen in December 2012. It was an event to mark a restoration of the garden as it originally was.

The site of the new Garden of Eden is Missouri where Adam landed after he was thrown out of the original Eden. It also is the New Jerusalem as indicated in the bible. Adam is said to have gathered his descendants on the site before his death for the final blessings. These are the events that give the area greater significance for the Mormons. It will be the final place where world peace will reemerge.

The United Garden of Eden gained more significance after Adam gathered his seven generations to bless them before he died. The subject has been explored by successive Mormons presidents. They foresee a return by all the children of Adam who dispersed because of persecution. The earth will enjoy peace when the children gather again.
