"This world is Hell... we are in Hell"

Just remember, as my mother June used to tell me... "This world is Hell... we are in Hell". That is a direct quote. She was raised Christian, but always free thinking, college educated. She took her three young kids out of school in Atlanta to walk in Martin Luther King's funeral procession. The principal called her in and cussed her out. She gave him back what he had served her and took us out of that school. 
Mama always told me that this was hell and we had to be good and fix the problems here to get out. I believe "Thy Kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven" means that we can bring heaven to earth. And if you look at the hell people have gone through here before, then the work we have cut out for us is not too much to ask.
