We live in a world filled with evil and moral confusion. There is only one way out: affirmation of a God Whose primary demand of us is that we treat our fellow human beings decently. Faith in any god who makes any other primary demand will ultimately fail to solve the problem of evil. And any moral system that is detached from God, no matter how noble and sincerely held, will likewise fail Dennis Prager
About This Quote

Martin Luther King, Jr. said, "We live in a world filled with evil and moral confusion. There is only one way out: affirmation of a God Whose primary demand of us is that we treat our fellow human beings decently." Every human being has the right to be treated with kindness and decency, and every person deserves justice and respect. That's why we must turn to God for help. When we look to God for help, we can be confident that He will deliver us from evil and give us the justice we deserve.
