Description
In todays tumultuous world, humanity is facing religious, ethnic, politi cal, and racial
intolerance; wars; crimes; drug addicti on; and human traffi cking. UNESCOs stati sti cs
indicate that there are about one billion illiterate people around the world, which equals
26 percent of the adults global populati on. In the developing countries, illiteracy rate is as
high as 76 percent. About two out of three people around the world live on less than two
dollars a day and lack access to clean water.
Research organizati ons have indicated that 40 percent of all Americans say they att end
religious services. Paradoxically, the United States has the highest documented incarcerati on
in the world. Time has come to fi nd a more eff ecti ve soluti on for our ailing society. The
main purpose for preparati on of this compilati on has been to review the teachings of
Christi anity, Judaism, and Buddhism as a spiritual soluti on for our communitys problem.
Religious insti tuti ons have an enormous power on the minds of people and benefi t from
strong fi nancial resources.
Spiritual soluti ons, socioeconomic assistance, along with homeland security, are needed to
prevent internati onal and social confl icts around the globe. The Old Testaments passage
states,
And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people;
and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into
pruninghooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall
they learn war anymore. (Isaiah 2:4)
