Maybe There is Hope...Thanks, Jim

Sometimes I get down in my cups, alcohol, after all, is a depressant. Sometimes it's about silly crap like a total lack of a love life (due to a total lack of social skills or realistic expectations), other times it's over "The State of The World." In those World-Depression moments, I am sometimes haunted by the images on TV showing how much people in the Islamic world hate us Americans, and I get to thinking genocidal thoughts about how, if our liberal, free society is to survive, we must war upon Islam. I was having one of those gloomy, genocidal drunks a number of weeks ago, when a good friend of mine, Rev. Jim (whos blog http://jimsbell.blogspot.com/ I have linked to, even though he disagrees with everything I believe in) told me of another blog http://www.sandmonkey.org.

Again, the politics there are not always those I agree with, but the free-spirited banter and humorous approach to the "Middle Eastern Problem" are interesting and amusing enough to make me almost believe there is a way out of this mess without having to kill all adherents of a religion....
