the media is a snake, truth and honesty is its old dying skin. which it sheds quite often.
Media = Misinformed Masses
knowing when to listen to the serpent is and has always been the problem..... I think most definitely the Media can encourage and influence the masses, those in power they listen to a different drum.

From a Theological perspective, it could be argued that it was the Knights Templar at the time of the Crusades. (just to widen the debate a bit)

It's not a war, it's just a trial separation and the different parties are currently undergoing marriage guidance to prevent divorce and upsetting the kiddies !!!!!

I found the Knights Templar to be a most interesting thought. In fact, thinking it through a little deeper, the more things change, the more they do indeed stay the same. professor

That's easy. One side thinks it is a crusade, the other a jihad. The problem is both think they're right. That, and maybe I watch too much History Channel.

Has anyone read "Demons and Angels" by Dan Brown (same author of the Da Vinci Code) OMG!! The man digs up the most amazing theories..and i'm a die hard Christian....!!!

Perhaps the war was started due to "religious beliefs"...and of course the Vatican in Rome being the centre of it...and then we have the fanatic followers of "Allah"...

Perhaps its as the bible says...the two sons of Abraham..one representing the "East" and one representing the "West"...as the story goes it was Abraham's punishment for having a child with Hagaar his wife's handmaiden instead of waiting for Sarah his wife to give him a child...the two would always be at war...

(Abraham was known to be the "father" of our "nation")

What a love story...Rebecca on the caravan and seeing Issac in the field...then jacob working for Rachel...jaccob being a trickster was tricked by laban but in the end won Rachel and all the stipled sheep...rachel is actually the name i have pledged to give my Daughter if I ever have another. I am glad you know this story...so many don't.
