June 2011 — Israeli Chief of Staff, Lieutenant General Benny Gantz, has issued an order replacing the words of ‘Yizkor’, the famous Israeli military memorial prayer. For many years it has begun with the words “Let the people of Israel remember its sons and daughters”, and from now on it should start with “Let God […]
For Lebanon thou art, and unto Lebanon shalt thou return “And call ye on the name of your god, and I will call on the name of the Lord; and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God” (1 Kings, Chapter 18, Verse 24) The meaning of ‘Hezbollah’ in Arabic is “God’s party” […]

It seems as if there’s not much difference between the ancient world, where when two nations that fought each other brought their own gods into the battle, and the modern world, where when two nations that fight each other bring God into the campaign. For that matter, it would be interesting to compare the many […]
“When we talk to God we are praying; when God talks to us, we are schizophrenic.” – Lily Tomlin God is usually kept at a safe distance.
