The problem for most people is that we are not different from other species, plant or animal. We have nothing that makes us special, despite others hoping so much for it to be so.
We, like the rest of this universe, were created from the Big Bang, or whatever created this present universe. It has over time, produced all the elements, compounds, mixing, and experimentations that brought about our present life form, which is no different from the building blocks of other life forms.
We need to remember we are a part of the universe, nature, life, not separated from it, looking at it.
When that view can blossom, then so can mankind.
Especially in the sense that man can be kind.
