Our sins...

I one day hope that god will forgive man for his resolve for war. It is the most destructive aspect of human nature, one without cause. There have been hundreds of wars, but none have changed anything but the landscape. I can only hope that one day i close my eyes, and vision a world that will never be..one at peace.

I once wanted to be in the military. For probably a good 6 years. All the way through junior high, high school, and even in my first year of college. Recruiter almost had me convinced in high school that the marine corp was the answer. With my grades...be an officer he said. I wanted to serve, to make a difference. A cause, something to answer to, something to believe in. I have nothing but the unmost respect for the men/women in uniform. But the world around me changed my direction of engineering major from weapons development...to materials conservation/clean energy. I just believe there has to be another way.

Heres a trailer for an upcoming series on HBO. It looks interesting, but when i watched it i felt nothing but sorrow for the generation that had to endure, and the generations which never where.
