Post-catastrophe religious eutopia that, it is suggested, is the period of the millennium, and it takes place 33 years in the future, which is the traditional age of Christ at the time of the crucifixion. The catastrophe changed the Earth\&$\#$39;s alignment and its weather patterns producing permanent Spring and natural abundance. No one has to work but everyone helps as needed. Little social organization and people are naturally good. There is a contradiction in that while there appears to be no industry, there are airplanes. The last sentences quote Matthew 22:30 that there is \"no marriage or giving in marriage\" in heaven (The actual passage is a bit different and says \"For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the Angels of God in heaven\" KJV.)
