I agree, Lance, that my concern for global issues is not very high. In fact, my concern for national issues isn't very high either. I'm in one of those situations where things are so bad here at home that I try to take care of the problems here and do not have much of myself left to concern myself with issues across the other side of the globe. I hope one day that I might be used that way, but right now, my plate is full and I don't know how to add global issues to it. My hope lies in the pattern seen in Acts 1, where he says to be witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. Historically there was a progression in maturity from things local to things global. I think perhaps that you are older than me. Was there ever a time in your life when you were not concerned enough with things global? Lance wrote: > To make light of 4M deaths is simply beyond > my comprehension. What is your perspective about the more than 46 million deaths through abortion? Do you have a solution to this problem? Are you concerned about it? I haven't heard you address the problem of abortion. Don't you think we should start with this more local problem of abortion rather than the problems in the Ivory Coast and related areas?
