Imagine if the germans dismissed hitler's views. The mongols those of ghenghis khan. The british the views of colonialism. Imagine the spanish rejecting the brutal views of their warped religion in the inquisition. Imagine rejecting darwin's views... the catholics views on abuse and deceit and power. Imagine if the zulu's rejected chaka's views of power and slavery. Imagine if Jesus accepted the views jammed down his, and his societies throats. Imagine rejecting the views of western science and philosophies, brutally, savagely inflicted on numerous supposedly 'simple and inferior indigenous people. Imagine the chinese rejecting the brutality against the Tibetans. Imagine if Buddha accepted suffering. Imagine if Martin Luther King, or Nelson Mandela accepted the brutality of racism. Imagine no Ghandi. Imagine so called ordinary people trying to be like them, trying to follow their example, speaking up against suffering. Imagine if I'll fail if it makes you feel better than imagining I won't. I won't accept any view that promotes suffering, no matter how well it is packaged and presented, no matter who the presenter. I am sorry if that offends you.
