Peace for America.

American society has become far too violent. The solution to the problem is far too complex for a guy like me to figure out.The donkey party and elephant politicians keep arguing about social issues but people are still dying on their way to finishing marathons. People get patriotic and emotional for a week or maybe a month but still people continue to die in our schools and in the city streets. Everytime someone mentions the possibillity of closer regulation of television or the internet people scream bloody murder about their first amendment rights, Our churches have become social institutions that very seldom speak out about the bad behavior that is prevelent in our society. The family has become fractured and is in the process of becoming redefined. Marrige is failing half the time and is in the process of becoming whatever two people say it is. Americans are calling for tolerance and unity in these violent times hoping that the education and the appreciation of diversity will stem the tide. The truth is that the elimination of violence can only start when we become more tolerant of spiritual expression and less tolerant of those people who wish too supress it in the interest of protecting everybodies so called religious liberty. Americans need MORE freedom to spread their spiritual wings not less. Prayers in all locations to any higher power are better then telling people they can only pray in a stone building or temple on a certain day of the week. The separation of church and state is a good idea untill its taken to an extreme and begins to supress natural spiritual behavior and values that promote peaceful non violent action.
