So the best life on earth turns out to be like entry into heaven: for the lucky few who survive the end times of mass death by war, disease, and hunger. As above, so below.
We need a great filter, a way to end the lives of some 97% of the world human population at a minimum, and the greater the reduction of human numbers, like 99% or even 99.99% from where these numbers stand today, the better life will get, for humans and all other lifeforms on this planet.
The fortunate few, who are akin to the "saved" in the world's major religions, will live to see the closest thing humans can manage to paradise on earth. But for the saved, or the fortunate few, to reach this wonderful condition, most of the human population of the world needs to perish.
Nothing is given without a cost, and it is a general rule -- one recognized in the old traditions of sacrificing living things, including traditions of human sacrifice -- that the greater the sacrifice, i.e. the more value is taken out of the world, then the greater the resulting reward will be, so that even more value will be added to the world than was taken out of the world in the giant sacrificial era.
