They are killing each other again in the Middle East. I hear people talking about how many people are killed by the other side compared to their side as a measure of who is worse. But is there really a difference between one unnecessary death or two unnecessary deaths? Doubles your grief if you see four family members die in front of you instead of two?

Maybe only a nonbeliever in any system, nation-state, or religion wonders about these questions. Can you imagine what the world would be like if everybody lived where they are without the feeling that they have a right to live there, that they own the land? I guess mankind is still in the phase of a child, one that screams if you take away the toy they grab on to.
