While I appreciate your good intentions, we should not confuse them with assured good consequences. The proverb "the road to hell is paved with good intentions" is quite apt here. If human history is to be considered, there's strong reason to be cautious towards good intentions alone. When people fought world wars, they did for the country, their people, all with good intentions. When great geniuses created the A bomb and destroyed millions, they did it with good intentions. Good intent is always on surplus in human history, but good consequences have been on deficit. Bohm tried to debug this disparity, this freak result from human conduct. His answer? The illusory and deceptive nature of thought is the root cause. The worries about next world war, ecological disasters, unbridled hate, international conflict all can be traced to thought considered as a system. Some of his insights are: Thought is not as simple and straightforward as it was thought (yep). You're not running thought, but thought is running you (yep). Most thought is conditioned, thus ineffective and often leads to dysfunctional or harmful actions. And many other insights. I am sorry I cannot fully summarize his work/understanding here due to time limitations. Please give his works a read.
