A Word to the World - A Tiny Compendium

A Word to the World: Nothing is more deleterious to human relations than humans themselves. Nothing damages human spirits more than does human heartlessness. Nothing ruins relationships more than does frivolous human speech. Nothing imperils human survival more than humanity's own cold-hearted egocentricity. Nothing has killed more humans than humans themselves.

A Word to the World: We global humans are exquisitely intelligent and diverse creatures but appallingly we have such ingenuous parochial worldviews that we cannot grasp that we are ONE remarkable, intelligent human genus of biped being, each of whom deserves identical respect and compassion.

BACK TO THE ORIGINAL

I admit that my estimation about bible scripture is an unoriginal position. I believe that God inspired human authors to write the words that reveal his salvation blueprint for humanity and these words are contained within both the Old and New Testaments. Because they are God’s words they remain the definitive authority for knowledge about God and He is to be believed, trusted and obeyed on the basis of what he says in scripture. I am unapologetic for this position.

An original position would be something akin to this.
