it's.a.sad.sad.world

What is the world coming to, what with all these rampant attacks of terrorism occurring frequently? First NYC, then Madrid, and now London? What next? Paris and Moscow? The world has always been a crazy place, but in recent years, it has notched up unbelievable levels of insanity. How can these terrorists have such disregard for human life? How can one live (or die) with such disgustingly huge amounts of innocent blood on their hands? How unsettling is it to have to live in constant fear, to have external insecurities explode in one's face at any time, to have an air of general distrust taint the eyes with which we view the world? Can ANY cause be WORTH scores of priceless lives, valid or otherwise?

Well, those terrorists apparently think so. Perhaps it's a game to them- to see who can kill the most number of people in one fell swoop. It's akin to playing God- the epitome of an act of hubris. The God who gives has every right to take away, but yet, who are these people who have not given anything but taken away everything? As a fellow infallible human being, I admit that I am in no position to condemn or to judge, but whatever it is, I do hope God rids them of their sad and all-encompassing delusions, and that He does it soon. My heart goes out to those who have suffered irreversible losses. It is a sad sad world indeed.
