Point to Ponder
Every one of us is precious in the cosmic perspective. If a human disagrees with you, let him live. In a hundred billion galaxies, you will not find another (just like him or her). —Carl Sagan, astronomer and writer
Each brain on this planet is unique and, since every thought you think changes the very structure of your brain, humans actually become more different as they age. Role modeling your personal belief system, exhibiting the type of behaviors you wish others would emulate, and being ready to graciously and succinctly explain your personal beliefs is one thing. A major problem in world conflict today is that some individuals think it is not only their duty to tell others what “they do not know,” what to believe, and how to live—but also to add coercion, punishment, and even threat of death if others disagree. That is patently scary in my brain’s opinion. Recently in a discussion of this very issue, I heard someone say, “But those people aren’t right. They don’t really know. I do!” Hmmm.
