In a discussion forum pointing to this video, one person noted how each generation is trained to hate some enemy, and it’s usually religiously based.

This topic deserves a deeper contemplation, although here are initial thoughts…

What’s great about today is the opportunity for global exposure to otherwise foreign cultures and religions.

However the new exposure challenges established doctrines which in turn challenges who we are. Following doctrines is habitually easier than opening our consciousness to explore other ways of being.

Established doctrines are often not current in meeting the demands of modern day, straining its relevance. Unfortunately leaders sometimes meet this challenge by promoting fear in order to keep power (as we are naturally selfish), rather than using it as an opportunity to deepen or broaden faith in their followers.

On the flip side, personal experiences that connect people in new ways may move us forward beyond previously established boundaries.

As far as the video goes, this may be a marketing scheme, but I welcome all marketing schemes that promote peace and connection to our global community. Bring on more ads like this please.
