And you know what happened to all of the above in the end... :-(.
Their "intentions" may be good but telling people how to behave always produces negative feedback, you know.

I don't believe in telling people how to behave. I think that it would have been better if Jesus, Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Lenin, Lennon, etc... would have shut up... The world would have missed information but we would have missed much hate and violence too.
You don't believe in telling others how to behave... yet you are telling us how Jesus should have behaved ;-).

That's like telling someone, "Stop listening to everything I say, and think for yourself!" - well... should they think for themselves? If they think for themselves only because you told them to, are they really thinking for themselves?

Some things can be taught. Some things can't. ;-)
