Be Fruitful, Multiply, and Take Dominion: A Pathway to Happiness and World PeaceIn the very first chapter of the Bible, Genesis 1:28 reveals the following: Then God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth."One can interpret this verse as follows: - "If you, my children, strive to become fruitful (i.e., the best you can be), if you build nurturing marital-families, and if you wisely steward and manage the physical world for the sake of your economic well-being, then, blessings will come. The blessings you receive will be directly connected to your ability to flourish in these three areas of life. "In this book, I seek to explore the deeper layers that are hidden within this revelation. I wish to appreciate what such a world looks like. On my journey to understand, I was led down many thought-provoking pathways. For example, I found that people who embrace a three-blessings lifestyle, on average, live the happiest of lives. Also, I learned that this framework is possibly the only foundation upon which a world of peace can be built. Considering our history of blood-soaked wars, this, in itself, is a useful finding. I also discovered that when the majority of world citizens decide to live a three-blessings lifestyle, then we all will be united on the same path towards building a flourishing future for our nations-all the while knowing that social problems will diminish with every successive generation. If we are all seeking to become the best we can be, striving to build the best families that we can, and learning how to use the natural world for the mutual benefit of all, then human outcomes can be no better. Two questions then arise. "What does a three-blessings lifestyle look like?" and "Do enough citizens wish to embody its norms so that a world of peace, happiness, and co-prosperity can finally be realized?"
