As a Species, We're Doomed…

The bomber was a father of two. A man who has children who walks down the aisle of the bus, looking at the children whose small short cheerful lives he is about to destroy, contenting himself with the knowledge that they are mere Jews – such a man has abdicated his humanity. The fact that he died in an instant and 100+ victims survived to live with the pain for the rest of your days makes you wonder which side God is on. Or it makes you certain there‘sa hell. Or it just makes you not want to think about these things at all. — James LileksAs a Species, We’re Doomed… (Bleat)
