The pressing question for our time is not simply political; it is spiritual and cultural: what threatens the common good most right now? The answer lies in the slow-burning division that feeds on anger, resentment, and hatred.

As we confront this national emergency, we must recognize that dualism—us versus them—turns fellow human beings into scapegoats. The call is clear: pursue responsibility, overcome evil with good, and become instruments of healing for future generations.
