    My strongest belief might be that the love of power is the root of all 'evil'.

    I justify it by recognizing and showing people's search for and use of power in virtually every situation they're in, by showing that all the harm and want for harm is related to the desire for control of other people.

    Criticizing that is just as easy; I just show that there is a genuine need to control many people who can't or won't stop harming other people and themselves.

    Bet you get no serious reply there.

    We usually hold our strongest beliefs on an emotional rather than a logical basis,

    and criticizing them is just too darn painful.

    My strongest belief is Jesus Christ. I believe he created the universe & died on the cross for us. And if we truly let Him, He can help us live in this cruel world & always be a helping hand. Giving us love for all of eternity.
