    “You do not have to be afraid.” He leads a Hispanic congregation in El Paso hurt and fearful after the Walmart attack. I spent time with the priest, exhausted after so many vigils and memorials, as he tried to find the right words for his Sunday sermon.https://www.nytimes.com/2019/08/11/us/el-paso-church-priest.html …

        It all begins with prayer. In prayer we find the strength, consolation and vigor to battle evil and do good.

        I don't think Jesus would choose guns over people. Just a thought Republicans.

        For all the good he's perceived to be doing, comforting the scared people of that community, I respect him for that. But I can't respect the use of prayer to solve real world problems. And I can't respect the promise of an afterlife to erase the fear of these real world problems.
