...Obsolete? In his essay disparaging the U.N., Charles Krauthammer argued that violence and greed are "the natural way of nations" [Oct. 23]. That is the lazy man's excuse for resisting change and progress. As a means to create security and stability, war has failed over the millenniums. Our experiment in international collaboration, nonviolent conflict resolution and mutually beneficial partnerships-still in its infancy-will continue to suffer missteps and setbacks, not the least of which include the present U.S. Administration's uninformed and shortsighted policies. My hope for the future lies in the goals, purposes and accomplishments...

With a worldwide disaster looming just a few years ahead, it is a time of unrestrained corporate greed, false religiosity, moronic fecklessness, and evil intent in high places. No reference to the present day is intended or should be inferred...
...second insight: that faith doesn't mean that you don't have doubts, or that you relinquish your hold on this world. Long before it became fashionable among television evangelists, the typical black sermon freely acknowledged that all Christians (including the pastors) could expect to still experience the same greed, resentment, lust, and anger that everyone else experienced.
