CHRISTIAN, RIGHT?

Thanksgiving in a culture of death

"As TV and radio talking heads waxed poetic about the high-tech 500-pound bombs that would be dropped to "soften" human beings and "break the back of the insurgency," I felt that growing sense of dread that is by now familiar to anyone who doesn't rely on mainstream U.S. news sources. This dread, this feeling of waiting for the other shoe to drop, tightens the stomachs of those who were raised to take seriously 'Thou shalt not kill' … that dusty old law around which the Bush administration has found a thousand loopholes." - Dr. Teresa Whitehurst
