The 9/11 Hole … it’s still there!
March 6th, 2010 Posted in Boomer News, Tolerance60 Minutes did an update on the rebuilding effort at the 9/11 Twin Tower Trade Center site recently. After over 8 years, no buildings have been constructed. The ceremony for the 20 ton granite cornerstone with the inscription; “The Enduring Spirit of Freedom” was held on July 4th 2004. It is still waiting for the the skyscraper to be started.
Here is what your grandpa wrote on 9/12/2001;
“The bombing of the World trade center yesterday should cause the world to really examine what the major religions are doing about preventing fundamentalist from distorting their good words and teachings. In this case killing innocent people in the name of Islam. It’s my position, that we need to put a new organization called “The United Religions of the World” in a building on the 9/11 site. Just the act of putting the selected leading spokesperson of each of the major religions together in one building with the charter to denounce terrorism and promote tolerance through education will lesson the tensions that exist between nations and religions and would honor those who lost their lives.
The USA is made up of all nations and religions of the world and arguably is the best example of a free society in the world today. The charter for The United World Religions must be specific. It must clearly state that the mission is education into things spiritual to foster spiritual understanding between the faiths. The world’s secular problems and political agendas should remain the exclusive charter of The United nations.
The world’s religions need to have Three Cups of Tea together.
The hole is still there. It isn’t too late to put The United World Religions building on the 9/11 site. Good ideas don’t die … but without action good ideas just fade away.

Sounds like they have too many cooks trying to bake a building.

” Utopia “.. an imaginary island in T.More’s
Utopia (1516), with perfect political and social system.
“An idealized place of perfection”.
That’s the goal of the Progressive’s and as we can see it’s just working out perfectly.
$70. to 100. Trillion of unfunded liability
and they just keep spending.
So to believe the same goal can be accomplished with “religions” that are diametrically opposed .. is really a stretch.
Just my opinion … based on what I know and what I have seen.
I guess I’m just a realist, .. not an idealist.

Bob,
Yeah, I say to you; “You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one”
You say to me that you are; “Speaking words of wisdom, let it be let it be”
I say to you; We can’t just complain. Do you have any ideas? Do you have any solutions to the cultures and religions being the angst between people, and the biggest problem in the 21st century?
Getting religions together under one roof may help them to be more critical thinkers about whose God is the real God.
And I guess you will say to me; “Sit down, sit down you’re rocking the boat”

George,
Dreamers are good we should always try to think out of the box.
I had just sent you a piece about a changed person who was changed over time and by the ” Grace of God “. (gift, to the undeserve’g)
What a change he’s undergone .. I believe you
will agree and for him it may even mean
certain death in his near future.
Yet, he has decided it’s worth it I’m thankfull not to have had to come the way he has but it sure makes me think.
George,…”rock the boat”.. I always do.
It always make one think …
