Rabbi's Rosh Hashanah Sermon
by wasasister inthe following was sent to me by a friend, a reform jewish rabbi.
i present it in its entirety, with edits only to remove details about identity and location.

terrorist tragedy and silent lambs
by wasasister indear friends:.
i've hesitated to bring this up before, lest it sound heartless, however:.
will the overwhelming media attention generated by last tuesdays events and the eminent threat of war divert attention away from the importance of the upcoming dateline expose?

Are you still a pacifist?
by wasasister inlast night, i found myself wondering aloud about something i never thought i would consider: purchasing a gun.
previously, i had very strong anti-gun sentiments.
i felt, and still do to some extent, that freely available guns in this country are an immediate threat to children and add to the violent perception others have of americans.

Seeing and not seeing
by wasasister inthis thought occurred to me when i was responding to the governing body divided thread begun by maximus.
many respondents were speculating on possible intrigue between factions of the writing or service committees, and whether or not they were (in essence) planting hidden messages for each other, or for alert dubs on the outside.
it seemed very much like the hidden pictures brouhaha of several years ago.

i thought of selling them on ebay, but don't really want the bother.
