You don’t hate….people

Why should I love God? He strung up his son like a side of veal. I shudder to think what he’d do to me.

For while religion prescribes brotherly love in the relations among the individuals and groups, the actual spectacle more resembles a battlefield than an orchestra. Everywhere, in economic as well as in political life, the guiding principle is one of ruthless striving for success at the expense of one’s fellow men…….Albert Einstein.
I pledge allegiance, to the Family of Man…and to the Freedoms for which it stands…One World, indivisible…with Liberty and Justice for all.

Jean Pictet, in his commentary on The Fundamental Principles of the Red Cross points out the universal characteristics of humanitarianism:
The wellspring of the principle of humanity is in the essence of social morality which can be summed up in a single sentence, “Whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them.” This fundamental precept can be found, in almost identical form, in all the great religions, Brahminism, Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, Islam, Judaism, Sikhism and Taoism. It is also the golden rule of the positivists, who do not commit themselves to any religion but only to the data of experience, in the name of reason alone.
I willingly take personal responsibility for every single person on this planet…….Oberon.
