Violence.

The bane of our world is violence.

Violence comes from fear.

When we get a fright we  respond with fight or flight.

So our aggressive actions are triggered by fears.

In the darkness we imagine that violence can win.

But the end does not justify the means.

The end is the means.

Violence beets violence.

Fear begets fear.

So, rather than perpetuating violence on earth, we should address the fears that cause violence.

Beginning and ending with the fear of God.
