Religious Fanatics and War

[irishtrekker]

There's a great NYT article you might appreciate:

This had me out of my chair cheering, because this personally is the kind of religion that I wish we saw more often. Now, if we could just do something about the way we're interpreting our "dominion" over the rest of the planet...Really, truly, *regardless* of your political or religious perspective, this series of articles should be on the must-read list (and I wish that someone would put it under the nose of all our politicians, since they clearly don't care).

Things like this make me grieve for us all. We have so much potential to do good, but we squander it and make other creatures pay.
