Easter Weekend
         With so much bad news, maybe we should wake up to the dangers pending on us all. Christians have been targeted in so many African nations, and slaughtered, including the recent college massacre. Christians in every nation are under verbal and financial attack, with Jews close behind. Within Islam, one sect attacks another sect. Buddhists attack and drive out Hindi.

         It's not always a matter of religious beliefs. No one stops and asks people if they are adherents of a certain creed. They simply identify them by race or family or location. In some places the fight is over who's taking the cattle to market, one group or another?

         Maybe Easter weekend is a good time to show we are not afraid to believe as we choose and exercise those rights. If Jewish, go to a synagogue; observe your traditions. If Christian, go to church; say grace and give thanks for religious liberty. We are free to disagree with each other, to worship differently or not at all. But no one has the right to impose their beliefs or lack of belief on someone else.
