We live in a big interesting world where it is possible to do bad things to good people: we have free will. A world w/o free will would not be worth living in. Everyone has at sometime in their lives done bad things to good people and what saves us is the fact that most of the time we do good things to all people.what about the millions of catholics, jews murdered in Portugal before being expelled
in 1496 ?
It is not healthy to focus on things we don't like. We desperately need to concern ourselves w/ good things. It is true that many Jews and Catholics have been murdered in the world and at the same time most Jews and Catholics have not been murdered. We need to concentrate on the plentiful good and we need to set aside the occasional bad.
Something else is the fact that I've noticed that I need to spend more time w/ happy people and less time w/ miserable people.
