We are Humans First

"We are humans first" is a motto often invoked. It is quite right in many ways because we are more than our gender, we are more than our job, we are more than our family role, we are more than our age, we are more than our nationality. In architecture, you consider the "human" first before the aesthetics; Better yet, to make it aesthetically and functionally suitable for the "human being".

Yet, there is something that is unsettling about the "we are humans first" that I never use it as my motto. It raises the question of what it is to be human? There would be a whole lot of variance that I simply can not trust that motto.

The Nazi Regime considers the Arian race as the supreme human race while the rest are sub-human. The White race used to call the black race as sub-human. Even the pre-Christian era has sub-human slaves. The pro-abortion advocates call the child in the womb as sub-human. Socialism's criterion of humanity is productivity. Those who believe in the physical being alone would have health as a criterion of one's humanity.

I can not entrust myself to such a motto. Our humanity comes from our Creator who created us in His Image with a Divine plan.

Left Vs. Right

The left and the right in the wheels that turn. Left is happy, right's heyday seems over.

Left:
I have looked forward to this day to throw in your face the evil you have done.
You torture, you rape, you kill anyone who is in the way of your military-empowered state. The most horrendous things happened under your watch.
The tools of torture you purchased in your fascist regime. Inserting these things in the male organ. Let them scream in pain than squeal your lies.
You wallow in your fortune, blood money from corruption.
You are a predator of women. You buy their soul for their liberty in your fascist world.
I long for you to live long... long enough to hear the cries of the lives you have destroyed. Little voices of poor. Wounded cries of the mother.
Murderer! Murderer!

Right:
You have not forgotten and your hatred burns me. Yet, I laugh to look at you... for you have become like me whom you so despise.
I have looked forward to this day to throw in your face the evil you have done.
You torture, you rape, you kill innocent children in the womb who is in the way of your women empowerment. The most horrendous things happened under your watch.
The tools of torture you purchased in your social equality. Inserting these things in the female organ. Let them scream in pain than squeal your lies.
You wallow in your fortune, blood money from abortion.
You are a predator of women. You buy their soul for a promise of liberty in your socialist world.
I long for you to live long... long enough to hear the cries of the lives you have destroyed. Little voices of babies. Wounded cries of mothers.
Murderer! Murderer!
You and I have become.

Left versus Right. Right versus Left. They looked at each other's eyes. For one moment, they saw themselves in the person they don't want to be.
