There are more tears shed over answered prayers than over unanswered prayers.
Saint Teresa of Avila -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Brad McCormick, Ed.D. Sent: Monday, May 1, 2006 6:31 PM To: Christoph Reuss Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Futurework] Long-Distance Journey of a Fast-Food Order On NPR All Thnigs Considered this evening, Daniel Schorr said former Asst Secy of State Eagleberger once told him, when the Soviet Union collapsed, that we would likely look back and wish we still had the Cold War instead. Sort of like Werner Herzog's: "And in that time men will seek death but they will not find it, for death will flee from them." That someday is today. We won the Cold War about as effectively as some children get cured of inherited immune deficiency: they get an immune system *and* they get cancer. But there is a difference: the children were sick to begin with; we were only parnoid. \brad mccormick Christoph Reuss wrote: > Brad McCormick asked: > >> I think the ethical issues may have been >> more serious for the American Civil War >> than for WWI.
