We are not sheep or cows. God didn’t create fences for us or boundaries to contain our nationalities. Man did. God didn’t draw up religious barriers to separate us from each other. Man did.

If mankind wants to evolve, we must learn from our past mistakes. If not, our technology will evolve without us.
