That all people (me included) would heed the teachings of Jesus.
I've said this for years. Whether someone's Christian or not, there'd be instant world peace if this happened. Also the teachings of the Buddha. I tell ya, Buddhism draws me. The nonviolence, the mindfulness, the No Harm to Anyone. It sounds a lot like the teachings of Jesus, actually. Those guys should form a committee.
