"that carries itself between the pairs of opposites of good and evil, light and dark. One writer of the Grail legend starts his long epic with a short poem saying, "Every act has both good and evil results." Every act in life yields pairs of opposites in its results. The best we can do is lean toward the light, toward the harmonious relationships that come from compassion with suffering" - #SkywalkerRanch 1987
“The effects of new media on our sensory lives are similar to the effects of new poetry. They change not our thoughts but the structure of our world.
All this is merely to say that my juvenile devotion to Romantic poetry is closely related to my present concern with the effects of media in our personal and political lives.”
- Marshall McLuhan, 1969, forward to ‘The Interior Landscape: The Literary Criticism of Marshall McLuhan 1943–1962’ Eugene McNamara, editor.

"Mythology is very fluid. Most of the myths are self-contradictory. You may even find four or five myths in a given culture, all giving different versions of the same #mystery. Then #theology comes along and says it has got to be just this way. Mythology is #poetry, and the poetic language is very flexible. #Religion turns poetry into prose"
Yes, it does have to be repeated and educated constantly.
1. Disagreement with a person or a group of persons is not the problem.
2. Hate, murder, killing, staving, siege against a person or group of people is bad, a problem. #OutGroupHate behaviors
Falling deeply in love with ideas, concepts, words - but hating on #NonFiction human persons is a serious human brain flaw, a evolutionary defect in the mind. Documented for 1900++ years in "1 John 4:20" Bible verse.
over 1,900 years ago an important criticism of religion was presented in #Bible verse "1 John 4:20"
1. "the one who does not love his brother and sister whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen."
2. "I love Jesus", "I love Allah", "I love Yahweh" - without loving each and every living person
Martin Luther King Jr emphasizes that hate distorts thinking. Normalizing hate in the human brain warps interpretation of the world.
I think "1 John 4:20" describes well.
Instead of taking sides, please try to recognize that both #Palestine and #Israel "need therapy", "need counseling". These Quran vs. Torah wars have been going on for over 1,000 years. Launching rockets and dropping bombs on your neighbors is bad, no matter where. Russia needs therapy too.
