Thank You. I appreciate your posting that wonderful article.
I have another quote that I would like to print. I would also like to get chris and emile's opinion of it. Hopefully emile will respond to it, if he is not too busy lambasting others for not responding to him. :-)
<<If someone with courage and vision can rise to lead in non-violent actios, the winter of despai can, in the twinkling of an eye, be turned into the summer of hope.
It is possible to live in peace
Nonviolence is not garment to put on and off at will. It's seat is in the heart, and it must be an inseparable part of our being.
It is possible to live in peace.
Nonnviolence, which is a quality of the heart, cannot come by an appeal to the brain. It is a plant of slow growth, growing imperceptibly, but surely.
It is possible to live in peace.
If a single person achieves the highest kind of love it will be sufficient to neutralize the ate of millions.
It is possible to live in peace.
If we are to reach real peace in the world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children.
It is possible to live in peace.
The future depends on what we do in the present.
Mohandas K. Ghandi
I would like to know chris and emile's thoughts on this quote by a non-christian. Does it have any validity/meaning to you, because a non-christian wrote it?
