Who is Dr. John WorldPeace JD ? When I was about 8 years old, I became aware that all human beings die. I became aware that these fragile human bodies are not immortal and eternal but are mortal and finite. I also became aware that at the end of each life, one's consciousness exits this reality with nothing but one's experiences. Into this reality, we all come without material possessions, other than our human bodies, and from this reality, we all leave with only the script of our lives which we have written. That is our testament and upon that testament, we must contemplate; not just when we die but even now when we take time to consider our life to date. My primary purpose in this life is to challenge the predatory nature of homo sapiens globally. My focus is bringing forward a more sane and just world human society. It is my intention to live a minimalist life to prove that the accumulation of wealth is not necessary for a happy and successful life and that it, in fact, creates confusion and chaos in one's life as well as the world human society. The only power I will have is the power of the truth of the various aspects of my Advocacy of peace and WorldPeace. My concept of family discounts biology. All men are my father, brother, son. All women are my mother, sister, daughter. I do not belong to any organization. I am not a religionist but a spiritualist. The difference is that religion is a corporation. Spirituality is a direct relationship with God. I changed my name to John WorldPeace (one word) on April 1, 1988, Good Friday and April Fool's day. I changed my name to WorldPeace as evidence of my commitment to increasing the peace in the world human society. I have been self-employed 95% of my career in insurance, accounting, tax, law, and now web design. I will never retire. I am also an artist and writer and poet. All incoming monies go to promoting my businesses which collaterally promote WorldPeace in one way or another. My ego is firmly anchored in my WorldPeace Advocacy and not in any way with the egotistic accumulation and management of physical assets or money in the bank as an objective in my life or measure of success. I am 100% committed to increasing the peace in the world human society and not committed to the accumulation of assets except incidentally to promote WorldPeace. I am primarily an Advocate for Peace and WorldPeace but I am not a pacifist. Dr. John WorldPeace JD
