ELLEN: I found this in the Urantia Book: pg 1013. "[[Modern]] man is confronted with the task of making more readjustment of human [[values]] in one [[generation]] than have been made in two thousand years. And this all influences the [[social]] [[attitude]] toward religion, for religion is a way of living as well as a [[technique]] of [[thinking]]." [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=92:7_The_Further_Evolution_of_Religion 92:7.14] With that in [[mind]], could you speak about the [[violence]] of the [[youth]] of today? (Just heard about the killing by the youth of his [[parents]] and schoolmates)

ABRAHAM: Certainly. That is an appropriate saying where the [[generations]] of today fit more living into their life span than those generations of the [[past]]. There is indeed a great deal of [[healing]] today's generation must promote. Unfortunately, for mortals to take [[action]], things such as violence must hit close to [[home]]. For major healing to take place on a worldly scale, small healings need to start within the realms of our first beginning [[relationships]] such as [[parent]] and [[child]]. It is so small and [[simple]] to start with, and yet, it is as the individual who is ill and needs [[medication]] yet refuses, only to find later their condition has worsened. The [[love]] of a family, parent and child, is our greatest [[hope]] for the healing of [[youth]] violence. The [[society]] in general, is the individual who is in need of medication, and foregoes teaching simple [[truths]] to equip parents with the [[skills]] to raise children, while conditions worsen. As I said, it starts out so simply with educating those that would be [[parents]], or are parents, how love is as important as food or oxygen. A loveless child is unfortunately deformed [[psychologically]], emotionally, and therefore, a black mark on [[society]]. Do you see, the small beginnings between parents and children are our hope for the violent youth of today? But, I can guarantee that any child receiving [[love]] from any source is apt to be fed in some small way. Is this answering? (Yes. Thanks.) You are welcome. Another question?
