And the quote given by the previous commenter (the one by Brian McLaren)... very apropos... and powerful.XLMIChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12268964638359962511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7859305239867927993.post-13386012292155767942011-05-02T15:23:02.283-05:002011-05-02T15:23:02.283-05:00As I read the rather bloodthirsty comments of my A...As I read the rather bloodthirsty comments of my American family this morning on FB, I felt that same sadness. A friend shared this quote that I then passed on:<br /><br />"Joyfully celebrating the killing of a killer who joyfully celebrated killing carries an irony that I hope will not be lost on us. Are we learning anything, or simply spinning harder in the cycle of violence?" - Brian McLaren<br /><br />It speaks with what you're saying in your blog, I think, very well...Kellyhttp://www.becomingcrunchy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7859305239867927993.post-44348055448204143782011-05-02T14:59:09.647-05:002011-05-02T14:59:09.647-05:00Thank you so much.

I've been dragging myself around all day, so distressed at the illusion that somehow an act of violence in any way makes up for all the preceding acts of violence. It has helped a lot to see that other people are thinking along the same lines.Seonaidhttp://thepracticaldilettante.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7859305239867927993.post-8929154205598773082011-05-02T14:38:46.279-05:002011-05-02T14:38:46.279-05:00Lovely post there.

I can quite understand why the people in America are so delighted that justice seems to have finally been done, but I also feel that there is quite probably another evil man just waiting in the wings to carry on the work of the terrorists. I pray that there won't be any acts of revenge in the coming weeks and months.Southhamsdarlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12285980805569582676noreply@blogger.com
