There once was a very prominent and well respected doctor who had devoted his life to helping heal people of their ailments. One day after many years of research and hard work the doctor finally felt that he had accomplished his life’s work.
The doctor had created a vaccines that could cure all of the common ailments of humans everything from the common cold to cancer. Everyone got the vaccine and the doctor single handedly made humans able to live forever.
The doctor thought that by eliminating all diseases and giving humans the ability to live forever crime would also cease. After many years the doctor realized that the vaccine he had created had not been entirely successful because even though physical disease was gone there was still jealousy, hatred, greed, and evil those were matters of the heart that no vaccine could ever cure.
