To counter stereo-type with stereo type is to create more delusion, not understanding. If you wait for someone else to have respect before you will respect, no one will ever respect each other. If we live our lives in fear, let fear dominate our being, we will never be able to cross the line between our differences. If human history is not marked by a braver attitude then the one that has us cower in the corner creating stereotypes because we are scared to face our problems, there is no hope that we will survive the nuclear age. The Buddha said “hate cannot be overcome by hate, but only with love, this is the eternal rule”. Jesus said “Matthew 5:44
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them.” That is true bravery, and true faith.
