Hello Pacifist,

I agree with 19 out of 21 points though I disagree somewhat with # and totally against #9.

Though the number rule of life is that we have come here for a Spiritual/Metaphysical/Purposeful/Meaningful cause, our ultimate purpose is not to be the richest or the most powerful or the most generous person.. those are all secondary..
