Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury,pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.


O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much
seek
to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen
This is a site for the accumulation of the knowledge of how to deal with
the ANTZ-  and to accurately deal with certain traits that are associated
with this species of collective thought collections.   ANTZ is the perfect
term (first used by Kristin at CASAA), and the ant the perfect societal
model for the behavior of this class of (well intentioned) one focused
no tobacco, save the world, Zealots.   Hence the anti nicotine tobacco
zealot movement.  The ANTZ.  In most of the major controversies in
this world, there is an acknowledgement that there is a middle ground
around which a battle is fought.  Global warming is one scenario where
there is some understanding that cycles of varying earth temperature
is inevitable, the battle is over how much man can add to the changes
in temperature.

This blog will speak to issues through the eyes of all and attempt to produce
a somewhat more realistic counter to ANTZ LOGIC.

Once to twice a week a line from St. Francis will be looked at in the face of
this controversy.

Today a simple intro.
