The solution is so simple to us and our conceptions of how we want the world to exist but unfortunately everyone fancies their own world and these ideas are not always compatible. The danger we found ourselves in is the ideological battle; with so many nationalist, religious and cultural boundaries to separate us it is hardly surprising that we are constantly enveloped in war.

If humans could somehow develop a unity that transcends boundaries and was irrespective of religion, race etcetera, then turmoil would seem frivolous and die. But how do we break down the innumerable walls of segregation? We must all realize what we have in common; by reveling in our similarities we tend to forget our differences and embrace each other without exception or condition. Cooperation, on these grounds, happens remotely around the world but has not reached a grand scale and may never do so unless humans call into reason all their superstition and non-fact based belief systems. Humans must regard religion not as something divine or definitive but either disregard it or demote it to a fantasy and metaphor for a moral life.
Our sureties part us but are not true or provable so until we distinguish what is true within us I don't think we'll be able to find what is true and beautiful in others and this world as a whole.
