- Notes
- "Colin Miles (Letters, Jan. 2011, p. 5) touched a nerve. That nerve needed touching, and Patricia Lawson (Letters, Feb. 2011, p. 5) recognized it. It is the nerve that brings together the threads of war and peace and justice, and deepens our understanding of how we, as children of God who is Love, are called to respond. It is the same nerve knot of issues addressed by Ruth Klaassen (Letters, Mar. 2009,p. 4) and Roland Gosselin (Letters, May 2009, p. 4), who challenged our church's passivity and silence in the face of increasing militarism. Thank you to these writers for voicing an unpopular view, for daring to cry out in the wilderness". [Text of entire article.]
