Deep Hate: Can It Be Changed. . .Before It's Too Late?
Hate is a strong emotion--stronger than most when it goes deep. It can move individuals, groups, nations to carry out unimaginable destruction and grief. It already has, down through the centuries. It continues today--in the forms of terrorism, racism, sexism, homophobia and more. Those of us who consider ourselves civilized have good reason to be scared. It seems as though there is nothing we can do to halt the growing menace. Our police seem weak, our governments impotent, our borders unprotected. What hope is there? There's more than hope. And in this series of articles, you will discover how you can help bring hatred to its knees. You can and must play a major role in bringing sanity back to an insane world. And you can. You have it within you and around you to save this planet and her people. But will you? Or will you succumb to the fear? No need. You now have the tools to turn on the light. . .

Pandora
Pandora was a gift of the gods, created by Hephaestes and delivered to Epimetheus by Hermes. She was called Pandora because she was made from the various contributions of the god to be a punishment for man. The story appears in Hesiod's Works and Days and Theogony and is often compared to the Creation Myth in Genesis. All ills of the world are credited to her, but so is Hope.
