9/11 - Ten years on and still no closure

The tenth anniversary of the ´crime of the century´ draws near and the debate rages on. The causes and reasons are still being discussed, analyzed and misunderstood by most people.

Frighteningly, the same conditions still exist. There are no reasons to believe it can´t happen again. And if it can, given time, it probably will.

The physical scars at ground zero are disappearing slowly, the mental scars never will. And they shouldn´t, lest we forget the day that changed the world. The day the word Islam became synonymous with terrorism 

My previous post on the subject, 9/11 Where was He?  still draws lots of readers and its no wonder, given the magnitude of the case.
 
As time goes by I no longer need to ask that question. He was not there because He does not exist! If He did exist He wouldn´t have let it happen. How could He?

If He did exist His own creations would not have been capable of such evil. After all, according to the Bible we were all created in His image.

How silly.

9/11 - Where was He ?

I would like to pay my respects to the thousands of innocent people of all persuasions, who were slaughtered on September 11, 2001 in New York, and their loved ones.  Apparently an act, some say, in the name of God.

...it was also the  day when a part of humanity collapsed, along with the towers, to it's lowest depths

...and the day when depraved men, driven by hatred and jealousy, callously culled 2,800 people

...the day extremist religion demonstrated, it's deadly and devilish power

...and the day when the Muslim world lost most of it's support

...the day bigots from other religions rejoiced at the prospect of the backlash against Islam

...and the day ignorance and superstition struck a fatal blow to the world
  
...and most importantly, a day when all good people around the globe wept in shame, at the evil some men do.

So often, when  mankind faces it's toughest hurdles...
                           the milk of human kindness curdles...
