The 9/11 Tribute and Memorial

[Midwest Spy]

What I was getting at:

Forgive them for the killing of civilians, forgive them for their hatred, forgive them for their ignorance, forgive them for their religious choice . . .

It's funny. I never condemned the religion for the events of 9/11.

I continue to condemn those who allow the hatred to continue within their folds.

And the non-pork eaters.

That will never change.

I'm pretty sure I knew what you were getting at. I've despised, loathed and hated everything Islam since 9/11. To me it's a religion of intolerance, and dare I say, hate (for any non-Muslim). And, I don't construe my pastor's comments as weakness or 'turning the other cheek'.

This is more about unburdening OURSELVES from living with hatred. It won't be easy.
