Iraq and Peace

I can understand that some (and by the reports, lots) of people think that we should be out of Iraq.  I know that the US cannot fix everything.  But some part of me still wants to "do some good."  If it is possible to keep people from being killed by horrible people who will use chemical weapons on a civillian population, I think we should.  I'd like to stop all of the wars, but I know that is just a pipe dream.  Only the Prince of Peace can bring peace.

And He is coming soon.  The body of Christ is even starting to unite to get ready to welcome Him.  It is yet a small step, but the goal of uniting of the RCC and Eastern Orthodox is a small step in the right direction.

One other way to know that the time is still marching forward, the latest report from Project for Excellence in Journalism is showing that we, as a people, prefer to have more filters between us and the news.  We are starting not to seek the truth, but the "strange fiction" that we want to hear.
