Thoughts Go Out to Austin
The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy...returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Martin Luther King
I would unite with anybody to do right and with nobody to do wrong. Frederick DouglasTags: None

One of the guys who was in my youth group many years ago lives in that area. He texted me that it makes him really think about some of our friends in Israel who live with this every day, from the day they were born. I hope and pray this perpetrator is apprehended soon.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...
