What the World Needs Now

There is no question that the world needs a bumper crop of peace-makers, rather than a few more billionaires demanding tax cuts at the expense of the common man.  But how could this possibly come about?

In particular, who are the world’s great peace-makers, and how did they come into being?  How did people like the Buddha or Jesus or Gandhi mysteriously appear?

And why does it seem so unlikely that anyone like them could come along today? In a world in which Donald Trump is the most powerful person on the planet, how probable is it that the next incarnation of Gandhi will come along and lead us to world peace?
