The Good News Beyond the Bad |
The world emerged from World War II resolved to ensure peace among nations. The United Nations was born with this goal firmly in mind, its charter stating: "We the peoples of the United Nations, determined to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, which twice in our lifetime has brought untold sorrow to mankind ..."
But peace was not to be. Although another world war has not broken out, many wars have raged all around the globe since the signing of the UN Charter, just as they have throughout mankind’s bloodstained history.
Sadly, this is the way of our world. The young Nazi-holocaust victim Anne Frank expressed remarkably piercing insight when she wrote in her famous diary: "I don’t believe that the big men, the politicians and the capitalists alone are guilty of the war. Oh, no, the little man is just as keen. Otherwise the people of the world would have risen in revolt long ago! There is an urge and rage in people to destroy, to kill, to murder, and until all mankind, without exception, undergoes a great change, wars will be waged, everything that has been built up, cultivated and grown, will be destroyed and disfigured, after which mankind will have to begin all over again" (entry on May 3, 1944).
