Interesting article..........it is without doubt that the world will look back on this period with distain (yet little responsibility). Both Tibet and the Cathars of the Languedoc are pivotal markers of how history tends to repeat itself. It's funny how time enables people to see with clarity the wrong, once the idols burn, the sacred institutions are destroyed, culture and religeon are wiped out and innocents are systematically slaughtered. Indeed, hindsight offers little reprieve to those who have suffered at the hands of hatred and greed. Spiritual evolution is the greatest challenge of mankind........if we exist long enough to see it to fruition.
