That hostility has never been more clearly evidenced than in the killing of one young girl who was shot after she confessed to believing in God. The young triggermen, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, were consumed with thoughts of suicide, hatred and violence. They hated people of color, athletes and people of faith. The messages in popular music, on television and in the movies ridicule faith and glorify violence. Moral relativism has undermined notions of absolute truth.
Truth is simply a matter of personal opinion and morality a matter of mere personal taste.
People who have profound faith are often characterized in the media as stupid, uneducated, easily-lead and fundamentalists. It is, after all, just a matter of opinion and personal taste. Perhaps an incident like this will make us rethink the 1963 Supreme Court decision banning prayer in public schools. It may even cause families to return to churches and synagogues, if only temporarily. The answer is never as simple as any of us would like.
