Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I had just finished Mass for the Sisters and had eaten breakfast and had returned to my little house. I turned on the TV to the FOX News channel which I usually do to catch up on the latest news. I kinda listen while I do other things. I sat down at my computer to work on Advent and Christmas homilies for the sisters and was thinking about what the Angel Gabriel had said to Mary and Joseph and what the angels had said to the Shepherds. Fundamentally that was, "Do not fear." A news bulletin on Fox caught my ear about the World Trade Center and an airplane crashing into it. I was stunned. I paid m close attention to the developing story and as the information began pouring in that it was Militant Muslim and probably Bin Laden connected. All I could do was cry and shake my head. I offered prayer for all those who had lost their lives in the tragedy. Immediately it came to mind how the human race has not changed one bit since the time of Cain and Abel; that fear plays such a major part in the hatreds and violence of the world. Why cannot we try to ounderstand one another, each others cultures rather than fear what the other may or may not do or influence? These radical Muslims do not represent the majority of Islam just as some splinter faith group does not represent Christianity or Judaism or Buddhism or any other group of people. So the Tragedy of September 11, 2001 helped me came to the conclusion that it is fear that is the root of all things evil in the world, and is the opposite of all that my faith stands for.
