tuesday post for peace

this particular post gets tougher and tougher for me to write each week because i can’t wrap my mind around why the concept is so difficult. i can’t understand greed. with all of the major religions tied up in this little hate fest- and all professing to love god and want to keep his commandments- i just have to wonder at why they still covet. really- isn’t this what all of the wars are started on? oh sure, there are gallant and sweeping ‘reasons’ given but what it boils down to is we want what you have and we are going to take it. bottom line. i think that it is mind boggling that in a country with less want than possibly any other country on the planet- that we should covet anything that anyone else has. much less blow up their families to get it. think about that for a moment.
