What is an imagined community that possesses perfect qualities for its citizens?
Correct answer: Utopia
Birdiemom
A utopia is dependent upon citizens appreciating what they have and behaving properly at all times, which of course explains why it is impossible to achieve.

Guitarfan 5, You're free to believe that if you want, but you have to respect what other people believe. Your religion is not an excuse for intolerence.

Love it when words speak for themselves..Utopia in Greek literary means a place which does not exist (topia/topos means place, while "u" is basically "ou" meaning"no", so "no place"

How awful to believe that mankind was just a cosmic accident, or some unnatural "freak of nature", with no creator. I guess many believe that when their earthly life has ended, that their soul ends as well. I choose to believe in a creator who assures us that the soul is unending.

We will find out after we die--or not. But it's fun to imagine and fantasize about the possibilities.

O, Where in Guitar Fan's post did you see intolerance? I just read a statement of beliefs, which GuitarFan is free to share. Where I have seen intolerance is with people who don't believe in God trying to limit the freedom of those who do to express that belief.

Utopia? In today's 🌍 is there such a possibility? I wouldn't put Good money on

Utopia doesn't exist now but it will in the future. Just read Psalms chapter 37, Revelaton 21:3, 4 Isaiah 2:4. No more violence i,e crime or wars only peace, good health and living forever

If heaven is a utopia ill take it every time. we humans won't achieve this here and now. when Jesus returns we will finally have peace on earth! I pray more people will come to him soon.

#tdf126, think of praise as meaning appreciation and love. isn't that what every parent hopes for? I gladly give these to my heavenly Father, now and when I am finally with him! when you are a believer you're life is not horrific no matter how bad the circumstances, because He sees you through anything! <3

A certain amount of competition and chaos makes life more interesting.

Nalatron 9000, Don't blame Trump for everything. Each individual can choose to live a utopian lifestyle irregardless of who the President is.
Player #4250921
elizabeth bennett, Don't agree. We do have our agency which I would not sacrifice, but it is possible that everyone could choose to do good just highly unlikely.
Player #4250921
Birdiemom, Exactly, the only way to achieve Utopia is through force or through everyone choosing to live perfectly which is possible but highly unlikely.

It's not an impossibility...just unlikely...
