my answer to all would be our greed for material things lead us to all crime and depression as we are in a world where we want to show our public image to the society so we live beyond our means and so have to take loans which lead  us to bad karmas and depressions. \\
as for god yes he is there in every soul guiding us but where do we have the time to listen to our inner voice we are so involved in the worldly praises and materialism that we ignore him and turn to him when we have totally messed up our life. not realising for us to get disentangled from our cycle does take time and then is our question where is god as then also we want to escape our karma punishments and look for speedy positive results

so here are my "answers"... theories more like...

1. Why is there poverty and suffering in the world?

13. What is the meaning of life?
To find something that makes you different so we will all have fun finding it.

Massive... Old... Too many names... so I assume he is every big old man I see, even the grumpy ones because God probably has to worry about everything.

LOL betrayed! I think you should stop playng those games you are playng (RPG right?) and find something useful like reading.


And did you all notice that so many questions makes we answer sometimes without thinking and than we have to start from the beginning?

Looks fun!

1. Why is there poverty and suffering in the world?
People chose the hard way instead of the easy way, coupled with the practical limits on the universe's benevolent nature as it is in its present stage of evolution.

2. What is the relationship between science and religion?
These questions are quite broad... they both seek practical knowledge.

3. Why are so many people depressed?
Perversion of Truth, the end of the Alpha cycle (as we enter the Omega cycle in 2012) wherein the masculine element has been corrupted as is always the case every cycle round, the epitome of test and opportunity.

4. What are we all so afraid of?
Truth.

5. When is war justifiable?
The only thing ever worth fighting for is peace... the conspiracy would say you cannot fight for peace, huh.

6. How would God want us to respond to aggression and terrorism?
As I perceive God as impersonal, unconditional love, joy, and compassion, coupled with patience, tolerance, understanding, and dynamic action are appropriate in face of aggression and terrorism.

7. How does one obtain true peace?
One cannot lose it in the first place for one is sentient - rather, what does one choose to do from their foundation of peace? (the effect of peace is tranquility, and the result of tranquility is righteousness, and from this position one may act impeccably)

8. What does it mean to live in the present moment?
To maintain two paradoxical ideas in mind simultaneously, and still function perfectly.

9. What is our greatest distraction?
Free will (as if we could lose it if we don't use it).

10. Is current religion serving its purpose?
Hardly at all.

11. What happens to you after you die?
You reincarnate, or trascend the cycle of Samsara, or return as a Boddhisatva, or some other possibilities...

12. Describe Heaven and how to get there.
Congratulations!.. but don't let it go to your head.

13. What is the meaning of life?
For humans, the threefold trinary nature of the heart - knowledge, power, and responsibility (or if you prefer, love, wisdom, compassion). Yet one can know the meaning without knowing how to live.

14. Describe God.
Nothing, capital "N", top sephirah of the Qabalah... and then some. However, what people usually refer to by "God" is either Jehovah's impersonal fundamental nature of the vibration of love or Jehovah's personal conventional nature of the vibration of fear that is Satan.

15. What is the greatest quality humans possess?
Foolishness.

16. What is it that prevents people from living to their full potential?
In the long term, the choices they make.

17. Non-verbally, by motion or gesture only, act out what you believe to be the current condition of the world.
*laughs*

18. What is your one wish for the world?
Health.

19. What is wisdom, and how do we gain it?
Wisdom is ineffable, intuitive Truth beyond linguistic convention and conceptual definition. Understanding is relative Truth involving linguistic convention and conceptual relationship. Wisdom is the foundation of existence, and one may only ever understand wisdom with understanding. Knowledge is this synthesis of Truth in an individual as they are consciously aware of it... you become wise through gaining knowledge.

20. Are we all One?
Fundamentally yes, and relatively no - simultaneous oneness and difference.

Who will be next in answering these 20 questions???
