"Yes," one of the men agreed, "your behavior does often seem illogical to us. Let me give you an example. You have physical fathers on Earth, do you not?"

"Yes," I replied.

"If you had two sons, born of your own flesh and blood, as you say, and if for one reason or another one of your sons knelt before you and asked your blessing on his de­termination to slay his brother, who is also your son, would you grant his request because he professed him­self right and his brother wrong?"

My reply was naturally, "Of course not!"

"Yet," he pointed out, "that is exactly what you Earth­lings have been doing throughout the centuries. You all acknowledge a Supreme Being according to your un­derstanding, and you speak of the brotherhood of man­kind. Yet you ask the Eternal Father of all things to do that which you yourselves would not do. For when you people are warring against one another, you fall to your knees in unholy prayer. You ask your Divine Father to bless your efforts to gain a victory over your own life­brother, even to the extent of destroying him."

"No man wages war except in ignorance"

Just another yourself.
