VIDEO: Why Can't We Just Get Along !!! (03:28)
When Mark in Toronto was picked among the thousands on the streets of the Toronto book fair to ask a question related to humanity's state, did he expect the answer that Perceiving Reality gave him above?

Question: "Why can't we just get along in the world today? Is there room for everyone?"
Answer: "You're an egoist."
Well actually, that wasn't Perceiving Reality's answer at all (you'll have to watch the video for that). But this did get mentioned within the answer, and it is the main hurdle a person has to reach if he or she really wants to effect a difference - to realize that our very human nature is pure egoism, that our human nature is the cause of all personal, social and global problems, and only through changing human nature itself, learning how to use it oppositely to the way we use it today, is there a solution to every problem we face.
