When you're wrong, apologize!A number

When you're wrong, apologize!

A number of people emailed me yesterday to express both their prayers and support. Thank-you, it is much appreciated. Others, including some who also oppose the war and/or share similar concerns about it, emailed to rebuke me for going off-line and to encourage me to stand firm on the blog for peace. This includes some good friends within the Church hierarchy. In reading history, one of the things that leads to fighting is when someone cannot admit they are wrong. In reflecting upon the emails I received, I now realize that I made the wrong decision. I can walk away from the fight without walking away from the schoolyard in which it is being fought.
