[TheBattman]

More and more, I think we will always live in two worlds that will never be reconciled.

Actually, your statement was ALMOST right ----

The world will always live in two worlds that will never be reconciled by the hand of man.

Despite the "best" efforts of mankind, it will take the hand of God, through his Son Jesus Christ to recncile the world.

No, I agree, and I eagerly await Christ's return, because that is the only way there will truly be peace in this world. Upon Christ's return, there will be no more Muslims, they will have bowed down and proclaimed that Christ is Lord.

But, to an extent, the world has now become what Israel lives on a more frequent basis. Israel will never be free from violence, absent absolute eradication of the extremists, or absent Christ's Return.
