Why? — Pope Francis

Why, then, wage war on each other over conflicts that we should resolve by talking to each other as fellow people? Why not rather join our forces and resources to fight together the real battles of civilization: the fight against hunger and thirst, the fight against disease and epidemics, the fight against today’s poverty and slavery? Why? Certain choices are not neutral: to allocate a large part of spending to weapons means taking it away from something else, which means continuing to take it away yet again, from those who lack the basic necessities. — Against War: Building A Culture of Peace, p. 13
We may ask ourselves, “Why do we still look to be saved by the very powers that have covertly, or indirectly, enslaved us for centuries?”… we do this even after the Epstein revelations? Why? Is peace not an inside job… an unfoldment… an urging of the heart, one human at a time? If a small but passionately commited and engaged percentage of people invest in the process, the false world of governance for profit will crumble. Personally, I feel that’s exactly what’s happening now… right before our eyes. Those who can embrace radical change will lead the way.
I pray for strength, not answers. God’s got this…
Strength and patience… you are right, it is an unfoldment. Praying with you
