"A never ending circle of destructive behaviour"
Which of course is the very reason that physical walls are built. I would even go as far as to say, -Any wall built today encourages a form of apartheid?
Differences in the world are increasing, not decreasing. Those with differences, tend to congregate together.
Differences just don't die out, they multiply when left alone.
If persecuted, they move on, and then go build walls if needed.
Gone are the old maxims of - 'love thy neighbour, and turn the other cheek'.
Life is too complicated, with too much at stake for that to work today.
Then there are those other 'creeping walls', that further add the overall picture.
The financial walls, the political walls, the trade barriers, etc. Even invisible walls, where subtle change, and acceptance become a matter of course. Like...'The Worlds Largest Ship' I posted earlier...dumping cheap goods?
I'ts my considered belief that physical walls and barriers will increase, as time go's on,....even that it may well become the accepted norm in the near future.
