No word regarding Patriot Guard intervention.

With all due respects to the lady, its at times like this when the words
from the song - Imagine - by the great, late John Lennon, ring very true
when someone cannot be put to rest in peace because of religeous intolerance
and bigotry.

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
*And* *no* *religion* too
Imagine all the people
*Living* *life* *in* *peace*

I am a committed atheist, but if there is to be religious friction in this
world, then at least let all opposing factions call a truce at the interment
of a "believer" so that they may meet their maker in peace.


Nice thought, but the idiots on both (or all, as there are more than
two) sides want to snuff the others.

I'll see you and call you one:

That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
