Death can only affect physical material which is no more than a costume. The lie however forces its way into your soul. Which poison is worse? The one poisoning the soul or the one killing the body?

I believe it wont even take 20 years before we'll start to see the beast trample the earth once more. Unless we take care of the problems, and take care of them on a fundamental level.
And dont just declare someone else to be the devil. "I'm always innocent" isn't that strange? 7 billion people on the planet, all of them innocent. 'The devil's always someone else'.

But how does that world view make any sense? Every person's innocent but the devil's all over the place. What kind of equation is that? Then there has to have been a mistake somewhere. And the only explanation must be that the devil isn't someone else. The devil, that is me myself.

Now some folks think that danger
Can’t reach this peaceful shore,
They must see planes and soldiers
Before they call it war.
Kind friends, I must remind you,
The atom’s very small.
It’ll blow us all to glory
And you can’t see it at all.
― Pete Seeger [en.wikipedia.org]

I have no jealouses. If people have things, can do better than I can, go further; that's great. But sometimes those that have been lucky enough to go far it sorta hurts me when I see them that they don't appreciate it.

So many years have passed, but still I wonder why the worst of men must fight (politicians) and the best of men must die (people forced to fight for them)

And there's a wonderful parable in the New Testament: The sower scatters seeds. Some seeds fall in the pathway and get stamped on, and they don't grow. Some fall on the rocks, and they don't grow. But some seeds fall on fallow ground, and they grow and multiply a thousandfold. Who knows where some good little thing that you've done may bring results years later that you never dreamed of?

Mindin' other people's business seems to be high-toned
I got all that I can do just to mind my own
Why don't you mind your own business?
If you mind your business, then you won't be mindin' mine

I would like to see every single soldier on every single side, just take off your helmet, unbuckle your kit, lay down your rifle, and set down at the side of some shady lane, and say, nope, I aint a gonna kill nobody. Plenty of rich folks wants to fight. Give them the guns.
