Terror in Paris
As we all know, it has been one week since the heinous attacks on the French capital, which claimed the lives of at least 129 innocent people.
It is our time to stand with the French in this time of senseless horror and unprecedented tragedy. Ever since I was a little boy, I have been fascinated with the French Republic. I have felt a rich and profound spiritual connection with the people of France, and that connection, through the events that have occurred as of recent, has grown. I stand in solidarity with my brothers and sisters in the magnificent land of love. We are all French. These terrorist attacks are acts of war. These are the very acts which threaten the stability of the world in which our children will live. These are the very acts which define our time and the people living in it: either we confront the issues where they lie, or we fail our future by further ignoring such heinous acts of injustice. Justice shall reign and prevail on Earth;
brute force cannot be allowed to replace the rule of law.
I pray our leaders have the moral conscience to lead us through these times with grace, firmness, and fortitude. I pray the people of all nations unite against these hideous acts of barbarism. I pray that France heals and recovers, as they always have. Long live the Republic! Vive la République!
