- May faith and love
of God make the followers of every religion courageous builders of under-standing

imbalances, which still exist, endure.

takes on the countenance of selfishness and hatred, which is negativity; it can

giving, even to the point of self-sacrifice.

To attain the good of peace there must be a clear and conscious acknowledgment
that violence is an unacceptable evil and that it never solves problems.

Violence is a lie, for it goes against the truth of our faith, the truth of our
humanity. Violence destroys what it claims to defend: the dignity, the life, the
freedom of human beings.

John Paul II Quote - Each
person, in some way, is called to work for the common good, constantly looking
out for the good of others as if it were his own.

is also the challenge of peace. As a supreme good and the condition for attaining
many other essential goods, peace is the dream of every generation.
Pope

arrogance of power must be countered with reason, force with dialogue, pointed
weapons with outstretched hands, evil with good.
