I would add that when said hairdresser or grocer takes on the mantle of "pastor" and then teaches that public, active affirmation of evils such as the death march and Hiroshima are intrinsically and fundamentally linked to my religion, I would not only disavow their statements but object, and object strenuously, to that and any other perversion of the faith I live for. <br><br>It only takes a few bad men to convince thousands of people that applauding historic evil is a righteous and faithful thing to do. This woman, though, will fight them 'til the day she dies.<br><br><font style="" color="#8064a2"><font style="font-size:12pt" size="3"><font style="" face="Verdana">Keely<br>www.keely-prevailingwinds.com<br></font></font></font><br><br><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><hr id="stopSpelling">From: thansen@moscow.com<br>Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2012 12:23:54 -0700<br>To: godshatter@yahoo.com<br>CC: vision2020@moscow.com<br>Subject: Re: [Vision2020] Posturing Ennui: Deja Vu All Over Again<br><br><div>Paul Rumelhart inquires:</div><div><br></div><div>"<span class="ecxApple-style-span" style="font-size:medium">Do people here know or care what their grocer thinks about the Bataan Death March?
