[Peace-discuss] Religion

[illyes at uiuc.edu]

Pardon all of my typos, folks. My first draft is always a typo disaster zone. I envy people like Brian Dolinar and Carl Estabook who turn out such perfect first drafts.

I don't exactly agree with Karen regarding religious choices in AWARE often following from political convictions. We have a number of people who support peace because they are from Mennonite or Quaker backgrounds. We also have a number of people of other denomonations who support peace because they have read Jesus closely, and understood that walking the second mile and avoiding standing in judgement over others solves a lot of problems. I fall into the second category.
