After a series of posts about political issues and immedicate crises, I think it will be good to step back and think of things from another perspective.
Try this quote from Reinhold Niebuhr:
“Nothing worth doing is completed in our lifetime;
therefore we must be saved by hope.
Nothing true or beautiful makes complete sense in any immediate context of history;
therefore we must be saved by faith.
Nothing we do, however virtuous, can be accomplished alone;
therefore, we are saved by love.”

This is a great quote! It really made me think and will continue doing so, but I am not sure that "nothing" is the right word where it appears 3 times.
I'm still wondering how you discriminate between evil and just really bad from back on September 7. Apparently you have to ask at least twice to show that you are serious about seeking an answer.
