Sending prayers to Orebro Sweden where a mass shooting took place at a school. The worst so far in their history.

We are living in very stressful and chaotic times. The stress of cultural change and global power shifts are wrecking havoc on societies.

Worldview is why or how we have such division and distrust in each other or our representation. Our differences are based on our beliefs in origin, identity, purpose, morality, and view of life after death. These beliefs are vastly different, and cultures fight to have their worldview at the top.
