Hopelessness can lead to desprate acts, behaviors and atrocities
Just as absolute power corupts absolutly -
But to Justify it is as well Criminal - We cannot excuse everything away - We have to learn to deal with what is happening in reality and love through it - There are lessons to be learned so lets learn them so this can all stop.
We as human beings have a duty to one another to spead the Gospel to the world and in that Peace and Love will Reign
