this is as best as i can figure and came to me slowly, growing in either direction from time to time, while sitting in church today:
-Lack of heart (impossible)
-Lack of loving heart (very truly POSSIBLE)
-Lack of love
-Lack of relationships
-Apathy (?)
-Poverty & Sickness (inseperable)
-Desparity
-Division
-Judgment
-Prejudice
-Racism (or any generalized feeling of Superiority)
-Anger
-Hatred
-The First Blow
-The Reactive Blow
...
...
...
-The 1,000,000,000th Reactive Blow (more commonly referred to as Open War)
++is it too narrow-minded to say that everything goes back to Love???++
thoughts, anyone?

No, Ash, it is not narrow-minded in the least bit to say that...anything and everything goes back to Love.
And as you have so beautifully shown, if our hearts did not lack true, God-ordained Love, then these injustices would be nonexistent.
We still don't truly understand the power that lies within the Heart, or rather, we don't use Love to its full potential.
As Martin Luther King Jr. once said, "Hate cannot drive out Hate: only Love can do that."
And only Love can truly do that...
