   I would make us all blind to our differences being problematic. If we were unable to see race, religion, cultural origin and sexual orientation as a divider and all the rest of our problems would be a lot easier solve.

      Beautiful. Such separation is spelled "ego." All we need is love.

   I would somehow do away with pedophilia.  I would love to see kids be able to walk down the street without fear of being harmed from these predators.

   I'd get rid of every politician on the planet! They're a bunch of self-seeking twats and the world would be a better place without them.

   Simple - I would ask God to step onto this earth and use his power to change everything that is bad into good.
   
   A few examples :
   
   No more hate
   No more violence
   No more pain
   and definitely - No more animal eating animal

      No animals eating animals? god created carnivores, same as omnivores like us. That would go against the natural world he created. Not to mention, herbivore populations are often contolled by the preditors, too many herbivores can destroy ecosystems

      Sounds nice, but that's not God's mission, here. He wants us to wake up and that takes our decision, not His intervention.

   I'd either change the way political systems work, give average Joe a better chance of being heard. Maybe make state legislators similar to getting jury duty for a year.
   
   That or gear the world more outwards. We have such a limited understanding of our universe and it could provide the resources to sustain us, or the tools to wipe us out. It pains me to see NASAs budget slashed. There's astroids of solid gold and iron, moons with billions of gallons of water, Titan has enough methane gas to fuel our entire planet for hundreds of years. Plus I'm sure there's other natural resources out there that would help us. Plus so much to learn outside our solar system.

   Our ego mind will surely tell us that we need to change this or that.  But this would be like saying that Infinite Intelligence is making mistakes.   We are given the gifts that we might change the world through our efforts and our influencing of others, and if this comes about it is as it should be.   If it doesn't, it is also as it should be.    I very much suspect that our particular wants due to our particular preferences and predudices don't count much in the greater scheme of things.
   
   This isn't to say we should ever give up trying.   If we succeed, well and good.  If we don't, keep trying.   And if we give up...well, that's okay, too.

   I would change me.
   
   I would find new ways to commit to being a loving, creative, generous and compassionate child of God.
   
   Why? Because I can and because by doing so, I open the door to bliss, again.
