"The United States remains 'dangerously vulnerable' to chemical, biological and nuclear attacks."

The headline screamed out from my browser and I went running around screaming the whole world is coming to an end. Ah - no.

You see, every country is "dangerously vulnerable" to terrorist attacks of a severe nature. That is the reality of the world we live in. The ease of obtaining these weapons, the political instability, and the religious hatred make everyone vulnerable, every day, every hour. No government and no military force or police force can stop it. We must do something, cry the masses and the government does - by invading our private lives and restricting our freedoms. For some that gives the warm fuzzy that we will be alright. The reality is that it won't really help.

What should you do? Live each day to the fullest, don't get all worked up ( it won't help), and make peace with God. Someday in the distant future, mankind may figure out how to get along but don't stand on one leg waiting for it to happen (you'll get tired).

just sayin'
