Giving Nonkilling a chance means embracing a bold and revolutionary vision where human life is valued so deeply that no individual, institution, or society resorts to killing as a solution to conflict or challenge.
In a world often characterized by conflict, division, and violence, the call to give nonviolence a chance serves as a powerful and timely reminder of the potential for peace, cooperation, and human progress.
