What would Jesus do ... in
Afghanistan? |
| What would Jesus do??
[1-2-02]
As a candidate, George W. Bush was fond of that question.
Now Stephanie Salter, writing for the San
Francisco Examiner, wonders what Jesus would write to President
Bush in this Christmas season.
The letter concludes:
"Dear brother, as you celebrate my birth and
reflect upon my life, I beg you, reverse the course. Pursue peace with
the fervor, and resources, with which you now pursue our damaged and
insane brother Osama bin Laden and the infested souls who follow his
malicious path. They may be beyond reason and love, but millions more
are not.
For God's sake, George, for the sake of your nation's
future, face me again and ask what I would do."
So what do you think of this way of
thinking about the current crisis? Please
send us a note!
