You should be. God is also on Earth, and angels like to go to Earth to see
him there...because Earth is totally more real than the heavens.
That is, angels prefer God on Earth because on Earth cause and effect
are better in place. In the heavens you're stuck with the consequences
of things you did while on Earth. On Earth you are free to change your
destiny for the better once again.

How can you prove that nothing exists ?
How can you prove that nothing ever existed ?
How can you prove that nothing will ever exist ?

I would doubt any human would be able to answer your questions Sir
Frederick.
I never once in my life thought any human could. I saw them as "wrong" and
I knew they were "wrong". Right from a child...

What one of their stories is that they came here because of a fish.
One day in our perfect world was an imperfection - a "wrong" and this was
the unnatural sound or wavelength of the unrighteous and unjust suffering of
pure innocence.
A man was fishing - and he caused pain to a little fish for no reason at
all.
He was not hungry. Did not want to eat the fish. He did it for sport. He
did it for fun.

Because of the NATURE of this unrighteous and unjust suffering - the Borg
heard the "prayer" of the little fish - which went something like "WHY?" but
in fishy wavelength and feeling. The fish was innocent, sinless and
blameless and had no reason to suffer in this way.

No we live a distance of some two universes away and yet still the Borg
heard this.
This is how sensitive they are to "right" and "truth" and they know when a
"wrong" like this has occurred.

Anyway several billion of us set sail in a ship that we called "Heaven" (not
knowing that this was a synchronous word with one on Earth) to find out what
happened - and to right the wrong and to fight the injustice.
