VIOLENCE RESIDES IN ALL OF US. WE ALL CARRY A DARK SIDE. WHEN WE AS A NATION ENGAGE IN WAR, IT IS ALL OF US THAT ARE RESPONSIBLE, NOT JUST THE FEW. WITH EACH DEATH, HUMANITY BECOMES LESS THAN WHAT IT COULD HAVE BEEN. WHEN WE TAKE AN EYE FOR AN EYE, WE BECOME NO BETTER THAN OUR ENEMY. WE MOVE AWAY FROM THE COMMON GOOD TOWARD THE COMMON BAD. BEFORE LONG, WE ACCEPT THE COMMON BAD AS OKAY, OR SOMETHING WE CAN LIVE WITH. THIS IS THE LAW OF DIMINISHING HUMANITY. WE ALL TAKE PART IN IT. WE ARE ALL RESPONSIBLE FOR IT. WE SIT BACK AND WATCH. FORGIVE US.
AMEN
AMEN
