“God has created the world as one—the boundaries are marked out by man.”
Baha’i World Faith
“Whoever destroys a single life is as guilty as though he had destroyed the entire world; and whoever rescues a single life earns as much merit as though he had rescued the entire world.”
-The Talmud Mishna Sanhedrin 37a
“Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.”
– Mathew 22:37-40.
The good deed drives away the evil deeds.
– the Qur’an, Sura II, 116
“If we go to the fundamental level, we are the same human being. . . Seven billion human beings are the same human being.”
–Dalai Lama
CURIOUS to the MAX 
Sadly, some choose to interpret words of truth from every faith in ways that support their own ideologies, regardless of validity.
Until despotic and charismatic regimes and their subjects realize that raising up their own from within and joining the modern world community could have positive long-term consequences, those disaffected by a lack of opportunity will be willing agents of mindless destruction.
Can only hope and be comforted by the thought that those wiling to kill and use their own lives as weapons are (still) a tiny minority.

77,000 years ago, mankind was almost extinct. Those that remained bred. mtDNA (the second DNA in our cells) goes back 100,000 years. That’s scientific proof we have more in common than anyone knows.

So true. So tragic. Evil exists. As does good.
