The Proverbial "We"

From the Eye of a Philosopher's Stone

Panacea was the Mythological Goddess of healing...her mysterious potions and exotic elixirs resuscitating those in need of cures...in effect becoming a remedy for all diseases and prolonging life indefinitely.  Figuratively speaking, its a solution to any large scale obstacles and difficulties...A Restorative Tonic

Often enough you find individuals in search of their "spiritual", "philosophical" or "religious" Panacea...their magic bullet...down that road of righteous being...a pious state of existence free from their soul's burdened past, free from their "sins"
from their deviant behaviors directed onto others
ultimate forgiveness for all past repugnant, distasteful and nonchalant acts of disinclined behavior

Absolved

Can it be that easy?
that simple?
Should it?

The better approach would be to treat each other better in the here and now...without the mercy of any philosophical or religious backing...treat each better simply because its the best humanistic approach to co-existence.
Nothing can undo past transgressions and ill-fated situations
Only, positive and productive current and future actions can and will build better cultural/worldly/community cohesion
