Conflict and Ego
David Brooks , International New York Times , FEB. 6, 2015

作者是紐約時報名專欄作家。他每次上網看讀者對他評論的反應,總是讀到惡毒、污辱的批評。他發現唯一能做的是遵循 古訓:「愛你的敵人。」然後反而可以從批評中學到有益的事物。
他說:人能靜心,才能清楚看世界,才能主導情勢。 也就是要從有敵意的對方的遊戲中跳出來。避免我們自己也陷落到對方的格局和水平。

How to deal with insults? “The best way is to respond is to quiet our disgust and guiet our instincts. It is to step out of their game. It is to reassert the primacy of our game.”
Chong-Pin Lin  February 13, 2015

老鼠有同情心但富人少同情心。
讀文學巨作,親近大自然會增加同情心。

 Why is terror Islamist?

 

柏克萊大學政治系教授 費施研究結果 :"回教國家平均10萬人中每年有2.4件謀殺案,非回教國家平均10萬人中每年有7.5件謀殺案。
目前,基督教國家人口占全世界1/3, 擁有全世界2/3的財產,和9/10的軍力。 回教徒在政治上所受的挫折和羞辱或可解釋它們的恐怖活動。"

 
林中斌 簡譯 2015.2.4
 
"Muslim countries average 2.4 murders per annum per 100,000 people, compared to 7.5 in non-Muslim countries.
 
 And the frustration and humiliation that Muslims now feel as a result can help explain terrorism.
 
Currently, people in Christian countries make up one-third of the world’s population, while holding two-thirds of its wealth and nine-tenths of its military might." (UC Berkeley professor M. Steven Fish, Washington Post Jan 27, 2015)
