We will all reap what we sow, and if we sow evil and hatefulnes upon others, we shall be rewarded in full measure, likewise.

diane says, " no intention to offend "... oh, lets !! when the catholic powers offend, we should raise our voices high to make sure everyone knows how horrific this action is. Jesus was not docile, let us not be either. picking on the poor is the lowest of the low, and would rank as one of the greatest sins in anyones book. hey vaitcan, what does " canon law " say about abusing the poor? you guys seem to know alot about abuse, so you should have an answer !

I thought the funny part of the report was the "surprise" of the Anglican leaders. What cave have they been living in?

I'd prefer full communion as a way for the Vatican to honor Anglicans and Lutherans (liturgical) churches.

Diana Butler Bass New Beliefnet post today--on an evangelism "program" at Southwestern Baptist Seminary. As a follower of the Prince of Peace, this one shocked me.

Jimmy, I share your concern about the promotion of violence and certainly reject this militarization of the Gospel. My point was that the prime motivator behind this campaign likely arose from our society's pervasive immersion in advertising sloagneering and gimmickry, not from a deliberate desire to make evangelism sound like a military campaign. That probably came later as they developed the "marketing" campaign.

A wonderfully irenic piece. It's easy to forget in our own pursuits of justice and frustration at its impediment that we forget we are also to be peacemakers. Thank you for the reminder.

I commented on your article. Though my concerns about the health care reform bills are many, I am a big fan of yours. I disagree with you a lot, but appreciate your spirit in bringing ideas to the table.
And yes, there are many times I'm in agreement with you.

I like your comment that hope is a verb. Let us all help build hope by confronting hate, fear, and willful deceit.
