I agree in spirit, but I disagree in reality. Yes, I would love to be able to pray for the hate & revenge in all hearts to be healed. And, in truth, I bear no ill-will to any who did not have any part in this massacre.

However, I will gladly join up in any military action to go and kill those who choose to perpetrate hatred. This includes the leaders of yesterday's massacre, the PLO, Ariel Sharon, the IRA leaders, the British leaders, and anyone who's too stupid to realize that the blood in EVERY vein is red, that the DNA in everyone's cells is intermixable, and that the differences between us are barely skin-deep. Hells, not even that deep!

After having been on the Net for 7+ years and having had heart-to-heart discussion with people I will never see, let alone know religion, nationality, or even gender, I cannot view humanity as anything less than an organism. When an organism has an illness, we root it out and kill it, even if that illness is our own body rebelling against itself.

Terrorism is just a symptom. Hatred and objectfication are the cancers. Root them out in yourself and you will make the world better, one person at a time.

Don't go borrowing trouble. For programmers, this means Worry only about what you need to implement.
