By no stretch of imagination what hitler did can be condoned, but he gives us an oppertunity to refelct on our own selves and gurad against being oppressive towards others. the 'atrocities' continue even today, maybe in a more 'civilised' manner. the pacakging changes but the substance remains same. these tow are forces of nature 1. warrior of light & 2. messagngers of darkness. They say good, truth always prevails, but it always seems to be in future, in the end good wins, but there is no end, and till then darkenss keeps on winning its little battles. love aditya Hi paulo & freinds

If we consider khalil gibran, then Hitler merely brought to reality that which was hidden in rest of us also. By no stretch of imagination what hitler did can be condoned, but he gives us an oppertunity to refelct on our own selves and gurad against being oppressive towards others.

the ‘atrocities’ continue even today, maybe in a more ‘civilised’ manner. the pacakging changes but the substance remains same.

these tow are forces of nature 1. warrior of light & 2. messagngers of darkness. They say good, truth always prevails, but it always seems to be in future, in the end good wins, but there is no end, and till then darkenss keeps on winning its little battles.

This meant saying "yes" along with the majority when inside, it felt more like "no". It seems that people generally have an inherent fear of being ostracized from society for voicing opinions that conflict with the majority. I used to have a similar fear. But with time and conscious effort to get back in touch with God and my spiritual self, I learned that in order to truly feel that we are God's emissaries in this world, one of the things we need to do is to stand up for what we believe is right even if it means having to stand up alone. Even if it means saying "NO" when everyone is saying "YES." I am still human, however, and so I still carry that fear of being rejected by society. However with every stance I make for what I believe is right in the face of ridicule and embarassment, I become a little bit stronger in my role as God's soldier - His warrior of light. John 15:19--If ye were of the world, the world would love his own; but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
