"seem to make complete sense, until you realize that there is no agreed upon definition of “wise” and “loving“"
Yup, islamistic suicide bombers for example also do so out of "love" (for god) and are supposed to leave this world "smiling". Meaning people literally justify bloody terror with "love" guided by their definition of wise people.
So I am quite sceptical of that sentence:
"that wise and loving people should have power"
As it does not mean much. Also power corrupts somewhat. I got to known some people I would consider "wise and loving" - but they did not had any actual power. Who knows who they will turn into, once they actually have power.
