Both: (pron) two identified together
There is only one natural enemy of humankind.
It is called apathy.
Whenever it arrives, good becomes a little less glistening, and bad is viewed as too normal.
So we need both:
- We need both believer and atheist
- Republican and Democrat
- Business and consumer
- Rich and poor
- Freedom and oppression
- Give and take
- Male and female
And as we look at each one of these possibilities, it is contingent upon our intellect and awareness to realize that truth lies in the midst of the disarray.
It would be wonderful if virtue would light up so we could follow it, or if evil smelled like farts. But it’s not that simple, is it? No–it takes our full concentration, attention, passion and involvement to make sure that we are at least attempting to find the common good.
In doing so, we defeat apathy.
Because if we don’t, it will destroy us.
