But I think we NEED to be "mad" as you call it. We need to be outraged! Yes, evil people are running the world, especially my very own country! But we can't just leave it there! We have to speak out and work for justice. Our complacency is what allows it to continue. How are we going to face God knowing that all these atrocities were being committed against our brothers and sisters, especially our MUSLIM brothers and sisters -- and that we did nothing?

I don't understand it. I don't understand how we can just keep on going through the daily motions when so many people are being humiliated, beaten, raped, tortured, murdered EVERY day. I think it makes me half crazy sometimes.

But God has given my husband and I this work in Haiti, so we do that and we continue to speak out against tyranny. I have also started searching my area for activists groups and demonstrations we can participate in.
