| 2. The Martin Luther King Jr snippet at the end was the perfect rebuttal, |
|
especially considering it was written 37 years before the war.

...there is the counter-example of Dr. King. It wasn't until Dr. King that it completely moved me as it did... that was excellent.
For anyone so quick to generalize all "religious" people as evil or ignorant, I believe Dr. King was quite possibly one of the greatest men of American History, and was clearly on of the most important voices for right we have ever known - not in spite of, but directly because of his spiritual path.
Now, that may not be the right path for everyone, but it was the right path for him, and I'm so ubelievably greatful for it.

| 4. Martin still has it ... |

words that ring our bells today. Tho he has been dead all these years those words live on.
Check out the "Crucified Division" flick on the same site. Damn. Powerful stuff. Raw honesty.
As for this flick with all its images of amputated children, parden me while I flash back and puke. A more powerful statement of the evil being perpetrated in our name is not possible.
