Greetings and best wishes from Pilgrim Presbyterian Church in Vinita, Oklahoma.
Have you ever considered that the instinct "to fight" is strong within the human race? Children play "White Hats/Black Hats" and current TV programs, with the same 'fighting' spirit are popular.
When we get older the instinct "to fight" is carried into sports events. My alma mater has a well known "fight song": "On Wisconsin, on Wisconsin, fight on for its fame; fight fellows, fight, fight to win this game."
The instinct "to fight" is carried into the business world, where it is called "competition."
You cannot breed the fighting, competitive spirit out of the human race. What is important is that we "fight" for the right reason - to fight, to struggle against injustice, poverty and want. These are things we ought to fight.
It will be a bad day when we cease to differ from one another. It will be a great day when we can differ and still love.
Richard
