Whether you are a believer or an unbeliever in Abraham's God, beliefs about Him are now threatening your very existence. Yet, you may well be among the majority of
people whose workload leaves you with no time or energy to study the sacred books that have always inspired believers to hate and kill each other, and are now inciting religious
extremists to terrorize the world. On June 19, 2004, the Los Angeles Times quoted John Kerry's wife, Teresa Heinz Kerry. Unlike the grievous arguments over the current "war against terrorism," constantly repeated by our news media, Mrs. Kerry astutely told us: "We're not going to fight terrorism with missiles. We're going to fight terrorism with ideas." Although her phrase "We're not going to fight…" is slightly flawed, the idea she conveyed is flawless. In reality, the United States and its allies are desperately trying "to fight terrorism with missiles." But we aren't going to subdue terrorism with armies and weapons! Religiously inspired terrorists can be subdued only through improved religious "ideas." Those "improved" ideas must be powerful enough to persuade the terrorists to alter their long-cherished ideas. Either we embark on the "new idea" of significantly improving our religious understanding, or the "old idea" of "killing our enemies" will wreak the horror our "new weapons" can create. |
