I really don't believe that God has created mankind and the world which we're living, under the same blue sky and burning sun, and all's just for sideseeing how fast we can destroy it and ourselves.
A scene in Mahatma Gandhi (the movie) strikes me.
There are two extremes on the political situations that time. One part was demanded to split India to separate states, both with each own Islam and Hindu territory (which is now becoming Pakistan and India), other was insisted to became one nation.
Gandhi was about to go onto a meeting to discussed the future of India. There are demonstrants gathering just in front of the blocks where Gandhi's living. And they blocked Gandhi's way out, asking, why did Gandhi participating in the meeting, they insisted on asking Gandhi to support separation of India.
Gandhi was very upset. He speaks, "I'm a hindu, a moslem, a christian, a jews, a buddhist. I'm all of you." And then he speaks about how sad and mad he is to see that his struggle for India's independence has turn to politics and society clash.
In another scene, Gandhi also speaks of how he miss the day, when as a child, he is playing and learning with friends, reading both Tripitaka and Qur'an side by side, learning from each other.
Something said in X-Men-3 pointed out more to me (taken from my lousy memory):
"In the world where intolerance, ego, and anarchy arise, there are brave men who fought against them in search for a better world. A world of harmony."
Imagine there is no heaven.
