Studying Psychology

Well, it's hardly necessary to say this. But everything is related to how humans or individuals in a group think. Every problem and conflict seems to stem from the misleading thoughts of those people, without even realizing what kind of idea they have in mind. Therefore, it seems very important to deeply study psychology to prevent such unfavorable outcome that (to the least extent) harms others. Although there are, indeed, individual differences, I believe in that extensive knowledge of psychology and philosophy humans have invested is still sufficient for me to understand some of inhumane crimes targeting the same species.
