Absolutely true. In my lifetime I have seen this thousands of times. All it takes is for each person to do a little. For example, not walking past people in trouble but to try to help them out. Even a kind comment suffices...

The good Samaritan.

So that's where The Lumineers got their inspiration from in "Stubborn Love"

The opposite of love isn't hate?

Love and hate are both strong feelings. The opposite of a strong feeling is the absence of a feeling, indifference.

Dogma is a double edged sword, as is belief; I agree with function, why is your dogmatic belief, without evidence, better than an others?

It was actually a quote of Richard Dawkins.

There is no reason to belief in afterlife...just like invisible flying donkeys. There is of course no evidence for what happens with your consciousness when you die but your neurons stop working when you die so you can be pretty sure it's over and out when you die.

It follows that putting imagination before knowledge is putting the cart before the horse.

That's very true.

It's something that Einstein said. I think he meant that if you have sufficient knowledge concerning a subject, your imagination decides how far the knowledge brings you. Einstein's imagination brought him pretty far:)

Yes, he's right. He did have formidable intelligence to make use of his formidable imagination.
