“For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice.

It's not all that hopeless, I'll claim the verses that follow.

"But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.”

James 3:16-18 NIV
