[AGL] vast ignorance

[Michael Eisenstadt]

Michele,

No I did read it. I found it odd that you would
speak your love and at the same time wish them
all dead in a tsunami.

Mike, You must not have read the part where I said "alas, I love them
all", And there was even more love thru out. I do understand that its
territory—I just wish they all could follow that biggest of all
commandments—thats all.
No, I wasn't born into it, but I've kept up since about '61. The hate
is awful and both books teach that hate will destroy the one who
carries it.  It was just a heartfelt plea for every ones peace.
Israel does have a very prosperous economy—they have so much to
offer—except the arms part. The P's just know hurt, fear and hatred.
They could learn; they could share. There are more of them that feel
this way than anyone knows. I will pray for it to spread. I will vote
against arms, maybe write letters—that' about the best I can do, but
they are my brothers and sisters no matter what they think.  Now,
hopefully that's Christian enough for you.  mm
