OP Thank you, Dr. Bill, for the memory jog and lesson. And thank you, Helen. Mercy, your post made me think of our discussion in Sunday School yesterday. Our class is embarking on a (probably not in-depth) study comparing Christianity and Islam. That class, like this group, rather frequently gets off-topic, and yesterday somebody asked why do we always seem to think we have to go out and conquer people? As a race, we seem bent on taking what others have, for one reason or another. We've (our class) been watching tapes of the Discovery Channel's series on the conflict in the Middle East, and decided that it is unlikely that an outsider could truly understand all the reasons for the ongoing hostility. I've been given to understand that the same holds true for the conflict in Ireland. Sigh. Still and all, I am optimistic that, some generations down the road, the world will be primarily peaceful.
