There are weapons that are simply thoughts. For the record, prejudices can kill and suspicion can destroy.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Prejudice of any kind implies that you are identified with the thinking mind. It means you don't see the other human being anymore, but only your own concept of that human being. To reduce the aliveness of another human being to a concept is already a form of violence.
Our only weapons in this war of your lifetime are the weapons of the mind.
The mind is the greatest weapon in the world.
It is, therefore, essential that we guard our own thinking and not be among those who cry out against prejudices applicable to themselves, while busy spawning intolerances for others.
May we not succumb to thoughts of violence and revenge today, but rather to thoughts of mercy and compassion. We are to love our enemies that they might be returned to their right minds.
Freedom of speech and thought matters, especially when it is speech and thought with which we disagree. The moment the majority decides to destroy people for engaging in thought it dislikes, thought crime becomes a reality.
How utterly are one's best thoughts invaded by this going out in society.
Force and mind are opposites; morality ends where a gun begins.
The only sure weapon against bad ideas is better ideas.
To identify the enemy is to free the mind.
