Evolution. I am very aware of my age and limited response to things that are progress in technology. I think I need to keep an open mind when relating to the new modern generation. My grand children's world is a very different place to mine. I need to trust that their world will be fine, different but fine.

Last night I saw a film of Don McCullin and his war photography. It was the most emotionally devastating film I have ever seen. It reduced me to tears of pity for the inhumanity of mankind, and the tragedy of innocent civilians mostly children and the tragedy of boys and men who have to fight for political agendas. If anything confirms my Quakerism this film does.
However he highlighted atrocities done in the name of Christianity. It also confirms my ideals in that I appreciate the teachings of the prophet Jesus, but the word Christian has negative connotations for me. I wish it was otherwise.
