mg, If I jumped too hard on you, I apologize for that. I accept your position that you are a concerned, caring person, engaged in active inquiry and looking for viable solutions to problems that have plagued mankind since we first formed communities and societies.

I do not read Bobert's paraphrase of your statement as inaccurate, nor do I read it as any kind of attack or put down on you. He is simply restating the question you asked and which he intends to try to help answer.
