Abstract

The author exposes how genocide and suicide are linked to the deviations arising in the modern era society. He advocates a society based on dialogue and empathy, which would overcome the entrapments of the modern era and commit people to a steady dialogue among themselves and with God. Interpersonal relationships are a source of human stability since they guarantee a person a certain level of security against a total submission to others or total self-despair, either of which can lead to depression and suicide. The modern era society tended to create extreme circumstances that exacerbated the human condition. A return to normal human dialogue is a continuing challenge for humankind.
