Given only those options Gow I'm flummoxed. Its logic is flawed. Two possible meanings: (a) God's wish but nullified by Satan's activities
(b) Regardless of the latter's evil intent, everyone at times has a little; in other words, …must have
at least some happiness
Quote:2. Pick The Word That Doesn't Fit: The best to the world is based on love and compassion.
Options: The, world, love, to.
My reaction is much the same as above. "The best to the world…." makes no sense at all. We'd have to know exactly what's meant

hingehead got it right. Dale, there are different options for each example; read the post again.
@Lustig Andrei,
Yea Andy in a couple of cases did I carry my response beyond the requirements of the OP but only because I thought it might be of interest
If not I can only apologize most profusely
I have to agree tho that I do get carried away with this stuff
@dalehileman,
That is to say Andy I don't at all disagree with Hinge, just speculating on a couple of points not entirely clear
Stumble It!
