Discrimination is a hellhound that gnaws at us in every waking moment of our lives to remind us that the lie of our inferiority is accepted as truth in the society dominating us.
Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness.
Have we not come to such an impasse in the modern world that we must love our enemies - or else? The chain reaction of evil - hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars - must be broken, or else we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation.
He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it.

There have been wars since the beginning of human dominated world.
What do you really mean?
It's in our blood to eat, hate, to get racist, to murder if called upon, to mock and to feel superior.
Now it would be very easy to state i do not do those stuff yet some where in your past, believe me, you did some of those i mentioned if not all.
Did you know the human lust for power and greed resulted in killing of the grandson of our Holy Prophet ,Imaam Hussein ?
Yes that's right. By our own muslim Brothers.

Am not saying wars should be abolished but it should neither take place for petty reasons. ;)

Am no perfect man. But we can always try to stay away from such things as far as possible.

Lust for power and greed are two things which I consider evil. :)

Lust for power and greed, expressed in the correct way (ie, not competing directly for the resources of others), is what I consider to be one of the greatest virtues of human beings. It is the root for all progress of mankind.
If someone achieved a very good result, its because he/she had a lust for achievement. If someone is rich and prosperous, it is because he had a strong lust/greed for money and has worked for it. If Malaysia is so developed compared to what it was 15 years ago, it is because of the lust and greed of Mahathir Mohammad for a prosperous economy.
Contrary to what everyone believes, the fact is that the lack of money/power is the root of all evil.
