World's Religious Leaders Mourn the Obama Escalation in Afghanstan Many of the world's religious leaders at the Parliament of World Religions in Australia are in partial mourning for the dream of a new world that President Obama promised, and decisively torpedoed in his announcement of major escalation of military forces in Afghanistan. There's widespread disillusionment with Obama.

Obama's Error--and What It Would Really Take to Rectify It A continuing irony of American politics is that the candidates of the ruling elites have been able to convince many Americans that the candidates who seek to redistribute wealth to the less fortunate, provide health care for all, and provide jobs and housing for the poor are the real elitists.

I want to share with you my experience and reflections on the D.C. peace march and rally Jan. 27 I want to give you a bit of the flavor of the peace demonstration in D.C., particularly since the media coverage was so predictably inaccurate.

End the Suffering in the Middle East The people of the Middle East are suffering again as militarists on all sides, and cheerleading journalists, send forth missiles, bombs and endless words of self-justification for yet another pointless round of violence between Israel and her neighbors.

When will they ever learn...that violence is not the path to security? Today we write those words about Israel and Palestine, yesterday about the U.S. in Iraq, tomorrow about China in Tibet, and it goes on and on. And the only solution is to break the chain of pain and say, "No more-we will not respond to violence with violence. We will follow the teaching of the Torah that says ‘love the stranger' and Jesus that says ‘turn the other cheek' and we will stop this madness forever.

Social Repentance on 9/11 5 years after 9/11--America and the world have some serious repenting to do! Lets begin. Wouldn't it be amazing if we could use this time period to ask every institution in American society to dedicate ten days to reflection on the degree to which it is currently living up to its own highest ideals, how far we have "missed the mark" and what we need to do to return to our highest vision and make it real in our lives
