You and I are used to assuming all people are basically good, and all religions are essentially good. How often do we think ‘we all believe in the same God”?

What is emerging and is rampaging today now in the form of “ISIS” or “ISIL” is an old story: militant Islam carrying the sword and demanding total submission to Allah as they conceive him to be. We are in merely the newest phase of a struggle that has gone on intermittently from 1400 years in the Middle East and has now spread West, as it once did.
We’ve been preaching peace, while others preach war.
