Rumors of War and Prayers for Peace
Mr. Bush may be about to get his war with Syria: G.I.'s and Syrians in Tense Clashes on Iraqi Border*.
Let us pray not. Let us also pray that this is successful and that it leads to peace and stability: Baghdad Quiet as Vote Begins on Constitution*.
It would be despicable for those of us opposed to Mr. Bush's War to hope, out of a sense of enmity toward the President or baser Schadenfreude, that this referundum fails and Iraq is plunged into even bloodier violence. Let us rather pray that this referendum passes, brings peace to the country, and that Mr. Bush is hailed by future generations as the liberator and builder of Iraq.

Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
