How Can You Perfect Your World?

“Abandon all hopes of utopia - there are people involved”
--Clayton Cramer--
I love this quote. It truly makes you think. Is there any possibility of a TRUE utopia? I do not believe it possible on this earth. With every "perfect" society, there is a rebellious streak; someone who will stand up and be different.
I am a Christian, a Jesus Freak. I stand by my faith with pride. My views on a "Utopia" are these...
As a Christian I want to tell as many people as possible about how amazing and life-changing God is. I believe that there is no possibility of a Utopia on this earth. Even if I could change everyone in the world to a Christian, the problems we face everyday will still be here. The single parent working three jobs still has to pay the bills, even if the bill collector is kind and understanding on the phone.
I myself define 'utopia' a little differently. I call being saved by the living, all-powerful, and loving God, Utopia. To spend eternity with the God who saved me from a painful death and loves me unconditionally; I call that a TRUE utopia. Also, Heaven in its self is a utopia.
In short, God is the way to eternal life in heaven, which is the truest utopia.
