When you use the word “make“ it makes me wonder if you’re proposing some sort of genetic engineering? If so then you’re looking to play God. If not then I’m uncertain as to how you want to implement the idea of ‘making’ people avoid injuring one another. In my faith tradition all of us are born with a sin nature. Therefore, we are prone to injure each other out of a predisposition towards selfishness and narcissism.
The secret to overcoming this tendency is to accept something called Grace. This is a supernatural fuel supply which permits us to overcome and transcend any injuries that occur. It’s a sort of secret, spiritual resource available to His followers. Grace is the power and desire to act according to God’s will, not our own. He certainly doesn’t want us to deliberately or accidentally injure one another. He greatly prefers that we show kindness and love instead. His Son, Jesus said, “By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” John 13:35

Friends of mine have proposed and defended the theory that capitalism is the economic system which best manifests God’s Kingdom on Earth. Although it’s certainly an excellent wealth-producing mechanism when the playing field remains level, I believe that capitalism is NOT the best we can do. It is certainly an
All of human history has been witness to man’s vain attempt to set up civil, economic and religious power centers to satiate an unyielding hunger to rule — to fulfill the original Dominion Mandate by perverse means. Without acknowledging God, man is still compelled by this invisible and ancient motivation
