The airplane united the world long before the telephone did. Quickly we went from amazement of traveling the skies to conflict amidst the stars. I grew up with long distance telephone calls but the generation before me did not.

Today we have humanity's intelligence at our fingertips. And yet, you hit the nail on the head in describing the suffering of those forced to live amidst a pre-feudal system of (if it can be called) civilization.

A prayer indeed. May God bless those suffering today as they did before the birth of Jesus Christ. And may God bless your efforts.
