God a casualty



The Bible illustrates a love affair between God and humanity. It is a love letter from The divine to humanity. In the love letter God commands us not to kill, not for the sake of just commanding but for far deeper reasons. Within each human resides God and by killing we kill a bit of God.

Elie Wiesel said, "The first casualty in any war is God."

How true and insightful. I wonder how we reconcile our human blood lust with these very basic commands?
