Abstract
Jesus Christ is supposed to create Heaven on Earth when he returns. After long-term scientific work, I concluded that equal human rights would bring Heaven to Earth. If I’m right, does that mean I could be Jesus Christ?

God created a wonderful world
Something has created the nature in which we live. Nature is complex, functional, rational, beautiful and harmonious. If one pays attention to any part of nature, one may notice perfectionism in the logic of its creation. I doubt it could have been developed without help from a tremendously intelligent power. I have accepted that this power is called God. I doubt God controls everything in nature; instead, I believe God created a super algorithm capable of producing the best possible results in generating the forms and relations of nature. For example, if people discover that it would be better to jump instead of walk, God’s algorithm might build them wings in a few million years. We, the people, have to learn from nature to understand God.
The origin of religions
Some individuals have claimed they received messages from God and passed on his will to the people. This is how all religions began. Religions contain ancient wisdom that benefits people, which is why we can say they carry God’s will. The Bible presents wise and beautiful words from God. The following verses from the Bible confirm that God wants people to create a good society:
- Psalm (89:14): ‘Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; steadfast love and faithfulness go before you.’
- Amos (5:7,15): ‘Ah, you that turn justice to wormwood, and bring righteousness to the ground! …Hate evil and love good and establish justice in the gate.’
- Galatians (5:22-23): ‘The Spirit’s role in a person’s life is to perfect the person’s character, to make him like God. Its fruits, being shown in human behaviour, are the divine attributes of God: “The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control…”‘
- Colossians (1:9-10): ‘The essence of all true spiritual knowledge lies in God’s divinely ordained laws. It is God’s desire that we be “filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding… in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God.”‘
- Isaiah (9:6-7): “The government will be upon His [Christ’s] shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and peace, there will be no end.”
- Micah (4:4): “Every man will sit under his own vine and under his own fig tree, and no one will make them afraid.”
But why do God's messages in the Bible pass on only the knowledge from when religion originated? Why has God, as almighty and all-knowing, not taught people science or how to build a good society? Does the lack of knowledge in the Bible mean God’s messengers invented God’s words, or that they didn't understand his words well enough? However, since different people received different messages from God, they have formed different religions. But God has not sent different messages to diverse religions; he certainly did not deceive people.
Mistakes of religions
The material in religious books is comprehensive but not helpful in defining a good society. God is not a blabberer; he is a highly effective creator, so his messages should be effective too. In contrast, many sentences in religious books contradict wisdom and cannot build a good society. Such sentences definitely cannot come from God.
Many religions force people to obey God’s will. God certainly does not want to force people into anything because coercion cannot make something right. Power over people is a need of spiritually undeveloped people. Control over people is a privilege that brings evil (Šarović, 2009). This control creates stupidity, greed, hatred, destruction, wars, and hell on Earth. It has nothing to do with God’s will. With this in mind, the religions which force people to follow God are in confrontation with God’s intention. God does not need power over people. He is far above such need. God wants people to create a good society.
Can we assume that among those people who wrote religious books were some who wanted to gain power over people? When you see how quickly today’s religious preachers improvise verses from the Bible to achieve intellectual superiority over religious people, we can assume some writers of holy books did the same. These people entered wrong ideas into religious texts that have nothing to do with the will of God. They created contradictions in the Bible. For example, God’s 6th commandment states: “Thou shalt not murder,” and Jesus Christ, Son of God, according to Luke (19:27), said: “But as for these enemies of mine who didn’t want me to be their king – bring them here and slaughter them in my presence.” The contradictions in the Bible reflect people's mistakes, not God's. They have prevented society's progress. God wants people to live well, but people deviate from his will.
I have discovered how to achieve the will of God
My philosophy, based on equal human rights, will bring the righteousness and justice demanded in the Bible. Moreover, equal human rights will solve society’s problems and create Heaven on Earth. Therefore, equal human rights must be God’s will.
Today, we have defined equal human rights insufficiently. Equal human rights are established formally, while reality suggests they are not equal. Presidents may send people to war, and people cannot do the same to them. Bosses may fire workers, and workers cannot do the same. Teachers may force students to accept knowledge, and students cannot do the same. Where are equal human rights in that? Throughout history, authorities have prevented the development of equal human rights to maintain their privileges. As a result, equal human rights have never existed, which is why society was never good.
Equal human rights mean that all people have equal opportunities in life. This includes the right of all people to participate equally in decision-making on issues of common interest. However, until recently, establishing equal human rights was impossible because nothing could collect everyone's needs and harmonize the optimal decisions that could satisfy everyone. Advances in computer technology have made this possible.
We need a democracy that will successfully follow individual and collective needs. I believe such a democracy must give people equal legislative, judicial, and executive powers. Everyone should have equal rights to evaluate others for what they do. Each positive evaluation should bring a small reward to the assessed person, and each negative assessment should result in a minor punishment. Such a policy would make everyone work hard to please others and avoid hurting anybody. This should create a good society. Equal evaluative power among people presents a new form of democracy, and the freedom of evaluation presents a new state of anarchy. Therefore, such a policy can be called democratic anarchy. Democratic anarchy alone should be able to build a much better society than we have today. I present democratic anarchy in more detail in the article Democratic Anarchy Will Create Good Democracy (Šarović, 2026-1).

Equal human rights also mean that every person must have the right to work. As long as unemployment exists, that right does not exist. Unemployed people have to accept poorly paid jobs to feed themselves. It causes the exploitation of workers. Shortening work hours may reduce unemployment till it is completely removed. In the free market, demand for workers and their salaries would rise until exploitation is eliminated. This will create just relations in the production processes. Workers will earn greater wages, purchase more, and grow the economy. Such a policy would solve today’s socioeconomic problems and build good capitalism. I define good capitalism in the article Full Employment Will Create Good Capitalism (Šarović, 2026-2).
Equal human rights should significantly improve the economy. The ultimate stage of equal human rights will create equal opportunities for workers to be employed in every public work post at any time. A permanent competition among workers for every public post will be necessary. Every public job will be filled by the worker who offers higher productivity, more responsibility, and demands a lower wage. It is nothing but a developed work market that is always open. It sounds impossible because such a division of labour never existed, but realizing it is just a technical problem.
I have defined an economic system that will effectively evaluate workers’ productivity, harmonize workers’ rewards, and define workers’ job responsibilities. Of course, such an economy cannot be realized soon because it will require significant development before people embrace it. But once people establish it, the burdens and benefits of living will be justly distributed, forming a just economy. In addition, no company can be more productive than one where each job gets the best available worker. As a result, private companies will lose the productivity battle with public companies, sending capitalism down in history. This will create good socialism. I have defined it in the article: Developed Market of Work Will Create Good Socialism (Šarović, 2026-3).
The final result of establishing equal human rights will be good communism, where people develop equal consumer rights. Socialism will teach workers to value work more than money. Then, people may voluntarily pay all their income in taxes, making all goods and services available free of charge. This will be good communism, synonymous with Heaven on Earth. I believe that nothing more than equal human rights is needed to create a good society, and nothing else can make it. I have presented the bright future of humankind in the scientific book: Humanism – A Philosophic-Ethical-Political-Economic Study of the Development of the Society (Šarović, 1992).
I have also shown the results of my work through three stories in three screenplays, Good Capitalism, Good Socialism, and Good Communism (Heaven) (Šarović, 2006-2011), for ease of understanding. By reading these screenplays, people can learn how to save the world from social evil and make it a good place to live.
Then, Am I Jesus Christ?
Messiah is supposed to save the world from social evil and make it a good place to live, so I publicly proclaimed myself a secular messiah (Šarović, 2017). Most people who have read my proclamation probably see me as a charlatan, but I do not know how to say it better. People can hardly accept new critical ideas because they have not developed the ability to think independently, living in an alienated society that authorities have established.
Might it also mean that “I am the way, the truth, and the life”? (John 14:6) According to the Bible, God will create Heaven on Earth (Amos 9:13-15). Christian authorities believe Jesus Christ will be highly involved when he returns. Since I have defined Heaven on Earth and belong to the Christian religion, should that not mean I am Jesus Christ and that my path leads only to God the Father? I first asked this in 2003: Am I Jess Christ? (Šarović, 2003)
The Church has not accepted me as the Messiah because I have not seen or heard God the Father (Or I am unaware of it, which does not help). According to the Bible, Jesus Christ and God the Father are one. But shouldn't Jesus Christ have shown more knowledge to be equated with the world’s creator? He showed less understanding of this world than ordinary people do today. Also, it is hard to tell how much of Jesus Christ’s teaching was original and how much reflected his time. Egyptians preached another world before him.
According to the Bible, I also cannot be Jesus Christ because I know nothing about another world and eternal life. However, I can say something about it from a secular perspective. In the article Everlasting Life? (Šarović, 2010), I quoted the Christian website “2001 Translation Bible,” which translates the original Bible written in Greek again. In the article „Does the Bible promise eternal life?“, the answer is: “The fact is, it doesn’t… at least, not in those exact words. Why not? Because the Greek word that other Bible translators render as 'everlasting' (aionos) doesn’t mean that. It’s what we get the English word “eon” from, and it means a long time.” Because related words have different meanings in other languages, Bible translators have sometimes interpreted the lyrics freely.
I accept the possibility of eternal life because I have no evidence that it does not exist. However, I asked myself whether eternal life is desirable, even in spiritual form. (The laws of physics deny the eternity of matter.) One could say that the actor Christopher Reeve was practically destined for a spiritual life. He fell from a horse, broke his neck and was immobile for life. He did not like such a spiritual life, was unhappy and even thought of suicide. But suppose eternal spiritual life exists. Can one imagine this eternal life if an individual desires a glass of red wine that they could never drink?
Why do Christians believe that eternal life must be good? I think I have an approximate answer to this question. People who are not free, people who are afraid, cannot satisfy their life's needs. And there is no difference between authorities and their dependents here. Narcissistic authorities need to achieve societal supremacy and are slaves to their megalomaniac ideas that cannot be realized. People who live under the oppression of authorities and obediently follow them cannot meet their needs. They both do not live well and fear death because they feel their lives have not satisfied their expectations. I believe that is why they need faith in a much better and eternal life in heaven.
People who live in freedom and take responsibility for their lives live fully. Such people are not afraid of death because they recognize that they have fulfilled their life expectations through living. Death brings them freedom in the broadest sense because they practically do not need anything anymore. Spiritual writers have shown such a state of mind in their work. For example, Henryk Sienkiewicz in the book “Quo Vadis.” In real life, Albert Einstein presented it by refusing surgery to prolong his life. I believe God made the best solution for people, and living longer than God predicted would be a disadvantage. God gives a good life and death as a gift to people who follow his will and live productively.
Finally, numerous Christian interpretations of the Bible suggest that Heaven and Hell are not locations but states of mind. If this is true, I should be accepted as a candidate for Jesus Christ’s work position because my philosophy, based on equal human rights, will make people love unconditionally (Šarović, 2022), bringing joy (Šarović, 2004-1), freedom (Šarović, 2005-1), peace (Šarović, 2005-2), justice (Šarović, 2008), and wisdom (Šarović, 2010-2013) to everyone. If my philosophy creates Heaven on Earth, then there is no reason for Jesus Christ to come to Earth a second time. Then the question is: does he exist at all? The Church and Christians should examine my philosophy and determine whether I might be a candidate for Jesus Christ’s work of creating Heaven on Earth.
Authorities block my philosophy because every social improvement must take power from them. I have accused the main blocker and evildoer in the article Has Antichrist Come? (Šarović, 2004-2) As a result of his blockade, people can hardly see my work. And because of the alienation authorities have imposed throughout the history of civilization, those people who have read it have not recognized the importance of my work. Consequently, social progress is plodding. Accepting me as a candidate for Jesus Christ’s work position will make people pay attention to my work and dramatically accelerate the coming of Heaven to Earth.
