I came across this absolutely wonderful short article on the BBC:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/4132482.stm
In the face of the torrent of 'evil' we seem to be bombarded with in the news on a daily basis, it is beholden upon us to remind ourselves every now and again that nearly all of 'us' are good people.
It is even more important to try and keep in our minds the philosophical sentiment expressed at the end of the article - if more of us recall that then we stand a chance of retaining our tolerance and humanity.
