Vulnerability during prayer. It should be a code we all honor I guess what really hit me is: To me, NZ is so far away. And if this type of senseless crime is happening there, then officially, it is happening everywhere.
We have a global problem. The second wave of colonialism; its lingering tail end is supremacy.
We have to stop teaching kids that others were conquered. Even the language of power and submission, recounted in school books,reinforces the same supremacists believe most of us consider to be extreme.
There is such vulnerability when we pray. It is a submission to a belief that we are not alone on this planet.
And, in those moments, regardless of your faith, those who wish to demonstrate their belief, should be safe.
It is a human moment that many of us share.
