Isn't all this reminiscient of Lord of the Flies, where human psyche is tested in a stressed situation free from authority. .-= John Emoticons´s last blog ..England football shirts =-.

Hi Seamus!
Isn’t it strange how we do that?! Groups are always splitting into factions. There’s so much unhappiness there.

Hi Mary - this is a very interesting article. Moving. It is so true about the estrangement thing. I worked for a while in a magazine where you essentially had two main departments, "(advertising) sales" and "(magazine) production". Despite the fact that it is a fuzzy little hippy magazine, the two factions, separated by a glass wall and different core tasks ... well suffice to say there is ample friction.

Hi Martin!
I think you are right: “I think evil has a way of coming when people start seeing themselves as more important then others.”

I think evil has a way of coming when people start seeing themselves as more important then others. Most acts of cruelty come about from prejudices. Martins last blog post..Heaven or Hell?

Interesting post. I need to think about this some more. I'm interested in reading about the secret ways our minds choose good vs. evil. Stacey / Create a Balances last blog post..Join the Life Balance Group Writing Project

Hi Porillion!
Thank you for offering the link to your article. It’s a poignant story and your article is beautifully written. I especially like the way you suggest we practice peacefulness.

Hi Porillion!
Could you please give us the link to the article you wrote last week. I payed a visit to your interesting blog but couldn’t find it.

I love your idea of all of us becoming ‘small heroes’!
