History Repeats

We never learn, do we? As a civilization, human beings have come through thousands of years of organized governments. And within those governments have come TNTC incidents of hate and control, even in a society as free as the democracy that was set up by the founding fathers in the US. There have been precedents set, all men being considered free, resulting in the freeing of slaves, ultimately resulting in the formation of even Equal Opportunity laws and nondiscrimination laws in the last century and into this century. But we as individuals maintain our attitudes of discrimination partly because we have the freedom of choice but partially because it is comfortable to be so. When that comes to the point where even in a free society we cannot co-exist without hurting or annihilating each other something must take place and we must come to understand that it becomes necessary to set boundaries even in our dislike. Because everyone, everything HAS the right to co-exist in this universe. May we try to learn about each other and accept who we are rather than demand that we all be alike.
