It's Love.
Love is much more dangerous than madness.
Love makes all things possible.
Love keeps things in the air when they oughtta fall down. Tells you they're hurtin' 'fore they keen. Takes you home.
That's what you need to believe in.
"We say atoms are bound by weak attractors.
Why not admit the truth: The universe is held together by Love." --Michio Von Kerr, Wayist Physicist, CY 9942
(As for making people better, I'd agree that forcing improvement on people is a bad thing. What you have to do is make people want to be better. It's the kind of change that can only possibly come from inside.)

I agree with this meaning of the movie the most. The movie is about what we love and the consequences of love. Instead of thinking of everything as a belief I prefer to think of it as love. For example, the operative's love for trying to make the world better, lead to the world becoming worse. But on the other hand, Simon's love for River is what allowed her to be rescued from the Alliance. I think the beginning of the movie, when the Operative points out the expression on Simon's face as he rescues River really says it all. If I had to sum it all up in one sentence I would say that "Love is what drives people." It gets to complicated if you get more specific than that.
