This has been the – “Month Of The Rejected.” The violence in the Gaza. Both groups reject each
other. So they proceed to kill each other.
The war in the Ukraine. Two groups reject each other. So they proceeded to kill each other .
Also, two hundred and ninety passengers and crew of the Indonesian Airline lie dead in a field in
Eastern Europe, because of this rejection
The violence in Nigeria. Two hundred young African women from Nigeria have been
abducted. They could possibly be sold into sex-slavery. God help their families, especially their
mothers and fathers. The rebels reject the families of these girls, so they could kill all those young
beautiful women.
Then there is the violence at our southern border. Thousands of children are fleeing violence .
If returned home they will be either murdered, used for sex or forced into a life of violence. Some of
our elected representatives want to reject them. They want to send them to their deaths. Do you
agree with this decision?
If you were a parent of a child in this situation, what would you do? Wouldn't you send your
son or daughter to America. You send them to school for a better education? Why do Americans find
this situation hard to understand? Returning these children to Honduras is no different than
supporting abortion. . . . It is amazing to me, when “reading the signs of the times,” I see Rejection!
Rejection!
I am finishing the final book of a trilogy on the WWII, “The Guns of Last Light: The War in
Western Europe, 1944-1945.”
The other two books were on the war in Northern Africa and Italy. These books describe the
loss of millions of lives. It was the prayer and the hope of all people that we would not see this
devastation again. Yet, each time we see people rejecting others, because they are different, we are
fostering a situation that can lead to violence and war. That is the price we pay when we reject the
world around us. Our unwillingness to listen to the problems of others – rejection – results in war.
We either study history and its sad events or history will visit us with its sad events. What
creates war is the question. And time and again the answer is the same – Poverty and Ignorance,
which is the results of rejection. We must not reject. We must care for all.
