While it is no secret that I strongly oppose a foriegn policy that showcases military solutions over diplomatci ones, as a God loving and follower of Jesus Christ, my prayers are for the safety of all people whose lives are threatened by this war.

It is a shame that so mnay people are in harms way relative the very small number of people who are at the center of the conflict.

Fundamentalists rationalize this war by saying that God controls everything. Not my God, thank you. He, tonight, is looking upon these events with sorrowfull eyes but knowing He's got a lot of difficult work to do here.

But, yes, these service people have been and will continue to be very much in my thoughts and prayers. Same for the Iraqis.
