Number three is to try living with ethical, moral and spiritual values, which culminates in unselfish service.

But empathy puts too much weight on the scale in favor of war. Empathy can really lead to violence.

Christopher Darden...rise above selfishness. This includes spiritual selfishness, when one looks toward personal edification and strengthening and has no other interest than one's own salvation. To be blessed is not an end in itself; we must be a blessing to others. All people have a talent in one way or another to touch and inspire other people's lives. Let us not only look inward and proudly say 'all is well in Zion; yea, Zion prospereth' (2 Ne. 28:21), but let us be a light unto a chaotic world.
