A Happy Life on Earth

With wars and violence all over the world, it seems the concept of a happy life on Earth is beyond the teachings of religions. Laughter, friendship, fun, none of these seem to have a place in the lives of worshipers, instead it must be misery, piety, and restrictive domination, forced on man by laws and violence. The reward for creating or enduring this Earthly misery is happiness: after you are dead.
It just does not make sense. The wonderful natural beauty of this planet, the joys of life, music, food, wine, love, friendship, and sex, it seems that few believe these joys were of God's intent, and yet He is our creator.
It could be He sent Jesus to tell us that planet Earth is Heaven. He gave man a brain, with which worship and meditation will, at some point in our earthly life, reveal  this Heaven to us. From this joy of life on Earth, our souls build their own Heaven, and the final sleep of death lets us dream of this into eternity.
There needs to be more thought, individual thought, God's greatest gift to man.
