The human world is a human creation. Society, commerce, traditions, laws, borders, banks and nations are all things we create. We have volition in respect to these things. We can choose how they should be.
But if we are make such choices, if we are to reorganise our world along ethical lines, then we must see the social and natural worlds clearly for what they are. We must unshackle our minds. We must liberate our powers of sight.
