Welcome to my Corner

"Those who can make you believe absurdities
can make you commit atrocities. ~ Voltaire"

If I want to change my world, then I must start by changing myself. At a time when mankind seems poised on the point of self-annihilation, it is time for the sane and rational members of society to reject the insanity. We must be a species that cares for all children. We must give them a world where egos of our religious and political leaders are less important than children's hunger, illness and safety. Give the children peace.
