Hatred will always exist

"How can men survive such reckless hate?"

This quote has been forever imprinted on to my mind. It is from King Theodon of the mythical realm of Rohan. How is it that people can combat an evil that wants nothing less than your final destruction? I am currently writing a paper on the Holocaust and the American government's response to the text book example of genocide, and in this research I am saddened to say that we did little.

I can only see that a spiritual element is implied, with the king of hatred at the root, ever-seeking to snuff out the Chosen People of God. It is so shocking that it came out of Europe! The heart of the Enlightenment and the progression of man was there in that region, yet the scientific process was given to extermination over social engineering. How can anyone view that man can make themselves better when there is genocide in the very cradle of Western thought? Killings are rampant in Sudan by Muslims, slayings in the Far East under Communism and throughout the world in cases known as "Collateral Damage." With threats by a new form of fascism, I am frightened for my Western life. I am glad that my Christian life is above my devotion to Western thought, because that is in jeopardy today. Trust in the Lord, for He alone is our Rock.

Man is wicked. Life is nasty, broodish and short.
