Do you believe that mankind can solve the many problems that rob us peace, security and threaten our future? I don't. Maybe you do. To be effective, any cure must address the root cause of our troubles, not just the symptoms.
To understand the gravity of the situation, imagine of a man called Ken who was really sick. Ken later died. Why?
When his first symptoms appeared, no one thought to search for the underlying cause. It seems his early caregivers simply gave him medication to make him feel better, instead of addressing the root cause. Now you can stop imagining 🤣, for that's the reality.
Is mankind taking the same approach to the world's ills? An example, in fighting crime, the governments enact laws, install video surveillance and strengthen millitary force. But this measures, while effective to some extent, do not address the underlying cause. After all, behavior usually reflects attitudes, beliefs and desires.
