Interesting topic.

Factoring all that humanity has accomplished and destroyed, It's fair to acknowledge it is our duty to survive and pave the way for future life. As most of you know, some people take advantage and do not realize the importance of the matter. The chronicles continue. With that said, we are simply cells of a supernatural organism. A human being is a part of a whole, called by us _universe_, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest... a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death.
