Fighting within religious factions as been going on since time began,
in Africa it has caused terrible consequences.

**IF I WAS THE LEADER OF THE PACK**

.
If I was the leader of the pack
I would eradicate
Murder wars and hate
Each person would have
On his back
A rucksack containing
Three books
One on love of everything
One on Giving and sharing
Lastly one on religious understanding
If one prays to a stone or
A mountain a mosque or a church
Do not mock them
Their belief is a divine right
Their God is in everything
If they shave their head
Wear a turban, cover their head
Grow long hair
Understand its faith
Look at each other with love
The sentence of murder
Would not be only in the hands
Of murderers anywhere
The disgusting tolerance
Of babies skin and bone
STARVING WOULD NEVER HAPPEN
A Berlin armada of planes
Would stop that
A money bank for the starving
Should be filled daily by every
Bank on the planet
Who is the man who can?
Start all this
If I was the leader of the pack
It would be me!

I totally agree with this well thought out piece. Mankind should live together in peace and harmony. Having said that, it takes humility and understanding, as well as strength in order to make it happen. Therefore, I must doubt that it ever will.
