My Take: Light will conquer darkness in Boston
By Danielle Elizabeth Tumminio, Special to CNN Boston (CNN) — At 4 a.m. on Patriot’s Day, I huddled in the cold and dark on the Lexington town green that’s across from the church where I work as a priest, awaiting the reenactment of the first battle of the American Revolution. As the sun rose, a small group of haggard colonists assembled. None were in military uniform; they seemed to have difficulty forming a straight line. And when the British marched towards them with their elegant uniforms and disciplined formation, they outnumbered the colonists more than 2-1. It looked to be a slaughter. As the “shot heard 'round the world” fired, the colonists scrambled, some dying in the skirmish and others retreating, running away to safety. To the casual observer like myself, it looked like defeat — defeat of their hopes for freedom, liberty and democracy; defeat of goodness and light. But that defeat turned out to be the call that brought out reservists from all over the Boston area. Ordinary colonists left their homes to hide behind trees with their weapons, haunting the British as they marched back to Boston. The efforts of those ordinary men and women eventually led to victory for our country and the ideals it sought — and continues to seek—to embody. Less than 12 hours after I attended the reenactment, I heard a different “shot heard 'round the world,” this time a few miles from my home where I was working. The Boston Marathon bombing shook me, as it shook many of my fellow Bostonians. It was a reminder that our world carries hazards and injustice. An 8-year old boy dies. Marathon runners have their legs amputated. Since the blast, I’ve heard some people say this changes everything for Boston, for the marathon, for Americans’ sense of safety in the world. I don’t agree. Our world is scary, unstable, dark as 4 a.m. on the Lexington town green. In the collective history of humanity, it’s been a long time since there hasn’t been tragedy — a life taken too soon, a body hurt by a bomb or a gun or a crippling disease. The Boston bombings are nothing new. They are simply one more reminder that, at some level, our world is not secure, even though, as comedian Patton Oswalt famously posted on Facebook Monday, “If it's one person or a HUNDRED people [who bombed Boston], that number is not even a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percent of the population on this planet. You watch the videos of the carnage and there are people running TOWARDS the destruction to help out.” It creates a paradox for me as a religious leader to acknowledge the seemingly eternal presence of this darkness while I stand with the fundamental Christian tenet that light overcomes it. That paradox can test any person’s faith, rendering hope complex, messy. That paradox challenges me as I think about this Sunday morning, and what I will preach to my congregation as I stand in the pulpit of my Lexington church. So what I will tell them is this: I will not deny the darkness. I will not deny its power. But I will remind them — and perhaps myself a little bit too — to think about tragedy the same way our forebears did. It may seem we are outnumbered in our battle against evil. It may seem we’re standing alone and haggard, outgunned like those militiamen who fought for our country’s independence 238 years ago. Yet just as in those early battles of the Revolution, there are reservists who want the light to win. There are ordinary people who step out into danger, into darkness, to shine a light. On the day of the marathon bombings, bystanders who could have protected themselves rushed to help the injured. Doctors, nurses, and their assistants worked overtime to make sure that those affected received the care they deserved, while law enforcement officials sought justice on the city’s behalf. Bostonians came out to offer marathoners juice and a bathroom, even as officials told them to stay indoors. A nearby restaurant called El Pelon Taqueria gave out free food, drinks, cell phone charger outlets, and the 9-year old daughter of the owner, Addison Hoben, decorated to-go bags with the words, “It’s going to be alright” and “We’re not afraid.” Those are some of our nation’s reservists, though not all of them by far. Many of us shine light into the dark in quieter ways: by volunteering at a soup kitchen or a prison, by donating blood, by sitting in the waiting room during a friend’s surgery, by caring for an aging parent. Not for naught did the famous Mr. Rogers — who was also a Presbyterian minister — say the words that have been so often quoted in social media since the bombings: “When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, ‘Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.’ ” What I will tell my congregation Sunday is that I believe in the power of darkness, and I believe that humans can do horrible things. But I also believe that light will eventually outshine the dark, that the reservists among us are fighting a war to defeat violence and evil, and that one day they will permanently win it. That is what makes me a Christian, and it is also what makes me an American, the descendant of the patriots who gave their life on the Lexington battle green so many years ago. |

Boston PD, FBI, CIA, ATF, DOJ, DIA and other agencies,
Great Job!
Thanks for bringing these punks to justice.
The USA will give this uncelibate, fornicating, sissy a fair trial and then he will be condemned to death
where he will burn in h-e-l-l, where he truly belongs.
Thanks again first responders in Boston and West, Texas for your selfless courage in the face of danger.
May God Bless all of you and your families.
Our prayers go out to the dead and to the wounded and their families.
Yours in Christ,
The Douglas Family
fornicating? LOL
I assume the that your know from firsthand experience that the kid was an "uncelibate, fornicating, sissy." How long have you known him, Douglas? He is only 19, after all.
Hey doogie ..................Do you have a Y

Human Y Chromosome Much Older Than Previously Thought
Mar. 4, 2013 — The discovery and analysis of an extremely rare African American Y chromosome pushes back the time of the most recent common ancestor for the Y chromosome lineage tree to 338,000 years ago. This time predates the age of the oldest known anatomically modern human fossils.

I watched the news coverage of today's events in Boston. Great job done by all involved in chasing this irrational criminals! Kudos to all City State and Federal agencies involved, we are all very fortunate to have such a force. The Good Lord in Heaven has made provision on that!!
However many people appear to be in a state of Panic. One of the criminals is at large, he also maybe in a total state of Panic, he must be panicking. The Authorities are closing on him and I have no doubt that I'm his Panic.
I somewhat agree, but some matters should be done a bit differently. Cheap Twitter Followers http://www.iTOOLS3000.com

The 'God Concept' has driven man insane. Earth must've been a lonely place for early man. Looking up at all those stars, and actually trying to imagine what they were, and how they got there. I totally understand praising the sun as a god – if I were early man. Why early man turned away from sun-worship? IDK? Probably something I'm too lazy to research, to be honest. But at least the sun is right there, in your face. Something proven. How man moved away from obvious symbols of worship to the totally obsure and invisible ones (Ahem – the trinity) with a wholeheart, is not baffling, but significant into revealing the extent of our fears. Only underlying FEAR can get you to get onboard with most the stuff shoveled in churches. If you don't question God's motives in the Tower of Babbel, then you won't ever question anything. And if that's the case, please send 1 million to my paypal account, Jesus compels you.
In modern times your god must be invisible or people will think you're delusional. 🙂
I am not an atheist but I can tell you that Before Jesus there were other so called erthen men who were called gods that died and rose from the dead all the time. Marduk and Ra and a few others. The teachings of Jesus are not followed by evangelicals because they are in a war like state of mind because of their END TIME CULT persona to wipe out all muslims from Israel when jews and muslims lived in peace among themselves before the creation of the NEOCONS at the signing of the Balfour agreement. Even Pastor Hagee the #1 neocon stated that Hitler was the fist of GOD! But even the israeli neocons still follow PAstor Hagee because of his hard core lookout that he speaks better of Israel than some hebrews do.
So thus this war is one based on ideology to make sure Israel gets their biblical land back from Iraq and Syria and Jordan.
Evangelical are quite staunch supporters for Israel that do not care how many children die in the process. But the numbers are there and so far over 750,000 children have been killed in the middle east because of evangelical wars for Israel and oil.
This war is one big lie.
"Hbr 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith."
Repopulating the Earth must have been awkward with just his family.
Noe had it made with marriage license fees. It was so profitable he expanded into marital courts. Next thing ya know he has a whole gaggle of attorneys.
And his offspring were also his grandkids. Yay morality!
Noah: because Christians will believe anything
It's fortunate that God is good and merciful allowing ONE family to live.

I was blind when I was a christian for decades. Then I woke up and left the cult.
From Father Raymond Brown’s, An Introduction to the New Testament, 2 Peter was
the last canonical work written i.e. ~ 130 AD, author unknown. Tis a bit dated for use in claiming anything.
Timothy's epistle as per most modern NT scholars was not written by Paul so it has no divine guidance.
Luke 21:36, not historical based on the studies of many contemporary NT experts e.g. http://www.faithfutures.org/JDB/jdb188.html. See also Professor Gerd Ludemann's review and conclusions in his book, Jesus After 2000 Years especially p. 93.
Matt 24: 37-39 As per Professor Ludemann's analysis, "These saying are inauthentic, p. 232 in the book referenced above.
Then we have the situation where to the best of our knowledge Abraham and Moses did not exist putting the kibosh on the OT.
And if we are going to thu-mp an authentic passage of the NT:
JC's family and friends had it right 2000 years ago ( Mark 3: 21 "And when his friends heard of it, they went out to lay hold on him: for they said, He is beside himself.")
Said passage is one of the few judged to be authentic by most contemporary NT scholars. e.g. See Professor Ludemann's conclusion in his book, Jesus After 2000 Years, p. 24 and p. 694.
Actually, Jesus was a bit "touched". After all he thought he spoke to Satan, thought he changed water into wine, thought he raised Lazarus from the dead etc. In today's world, said Jesus would be declared legally insane.
Or did P, M, M, L and J simply make him into a first century magic-man via their epistles and gospels of semi-fiction? Many contemporary NT experts after thorough analyses of all the scriptures go with the latter magic-man conclusion with J's gospel being mostly fiction.
Obviously, today's followers of Paul et al's "magic-man" are also a bit on the odd side believing in all the Christian mumbo jumbo about bodies resurrecting, and exorcisms, and miracles, and "magic-man atonement, and infallible, old, European/Utah white men, and 24/7 body/blood sacrifices followed by consumption of said sacrifices. Yummy!!!!
So why do we really care what a first century CE, illiterate, long-dead, preacher/magic man would do or say?
Jesus is the best friend I have ever had in my entire lifetime.
A friend in Jesus. Maybe not after you read the following:
Jesus was an illiterate Jewish peasant/carpenter/simple preacher man who suffered from hallucinations (or “mythicizing” from P, M, M, L and J) and who has been characterized anywhere from the Messiah from Nazareth to a mythical character from mythical Nazareth to a ma-mzer from Nazareth (Professor Bruce Chilton, in his book Rabbi Jesus).
An-alyses of Jesus’ life by many contemporary NT scholars (e.g. Professors Ludemann, Crossan, Borg and Fredriksen, ) via the NT and related doc-uments have concluded that only about 30% or less of Jesus' sayings and ways noted in the NT were authentic. The rest being embellishments (e.g. miracles)/hallucinations made/had by the NT authors to impress various Christian, Jewish and Pagan sects.
The 30% of the NT that is "authentic Jesus" like everything in life was borrowed/plagiarized and/or improved from those who came before. In Jesus' case, it was the ways and sayings of the Babylonians, Greeks, Persians, Egyptians, Hitt-ites, Canaanites, OT, John the Baptizer and possibly the ways and sayings of traveling Greek Cynics.

I'm glad this is in 'opinion'. The only light I care to hear about in the news is if we discover something more about the nature of actual light, how to travel closer to the speed of it, or if using it aids in the discovery of something else. Basically, real light. Not 'God's Light', 'the light in us all' (really? I don't glow..), 'let there be light', etc. You want to write and speak metaphorically? Don't pretend that your metaphorical grasping is even a symbol of reality. Say what this 'light' you speak of really is – emotional and sociological well-being. This kind of crap talk not only avoids revealing the true nature of the subjects of society but helps reinforce x, y, and z delusions in x, y, and z people. There is nothing connecting photons to neurons other than the sensory input of sight and the infrared glow of chemical reactions in all living matter.
Get a grip! Face this terrible tragedy like it is – the uncontrolled chaos of society vs. anti-society, its effects on the brain, and a person with a brain, in society, who has come to a different conclusion that is unacceptable and deadly to society. We'll try to stop it, and be safer I'm sure, but there's nothing in the sky even attempting or caring one way or the other.

Let's see, I want to remove sin from the world. Should I just snap my omnipotent fingers and it's done, or shall I come up with this bizarre elaborate guilt trip scheme where I send part of me to Earth to get killed, sorta not really, then become a Zombie.
It's stupid, but I'm bored, so I think I'll go with the zombie one.

1 John 3:16 This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.
" Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters."
No, that was stolen from Mithra the true son of God!
"Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters."
But we are constantly told "Jesus lives", so it was more of a bad weekend.

A lot of anger on here today... more than usual that is...
I'm not sure why the Boston story is in the belief blog. Surely the almighty would have stopped this from happening if it existed. The truth is that the only "light" here are those that jumped in to help the injured with no regard for their own safety. There is no almighty to stop these things from happening. If one such being existed, then you are absolutely SICK for worshiping something that would allow such a terrible tragedy to happen in the first place.
If one only look at the bad is that the same as those that only register the good? Bomb goes off at a crowded location and only three die. Other parts of the world it is 30 or 50. Here we mourn only three. As easily as you can lean on why something bad happened those of Faith can just as easily glorify the only three deaths.
This is an empty shell of a rebuttal. The fact that people of faith would glorify death in the first place proves exactly my point. You are truly lost.
HEY MARK – THOSE ARE PLACES WHERE ACTIVE WARS ARE BEING FOUGHT, YOU IDIOT
>>>”This is an empty shell of a rebuttal. The fact that people of faith would glorify death in the first place proves exactly my point. You are truly lost.”
Rodrigo, let us not pretend that a person on opposite views would not openly and quickly declare that the others point is empty or lacking. The fact is that just as I am an African American I find it foolish when other African Americans attempt to declare that all Caucasians are of a single thought or motive. This is fact, people are not monolithic. To say that people of Faith glorify Death but to also know that we are the largest part of the Pro-Life movement and the Anti-Death Penalty, does make your view a bit confusing.
I would offer this, if a person is suffering from a disease which is causing great pain, if that person dies and is not suffering further.... would you in some way glorify it?
>>>”HEY MARK – THOSE ARE PLACES WHERE ACTIVE WARS”
Please define “active wars” and if you feel India is currently in a active war.

Even in Britain there were bombings even back in 2005.
Heck, we were not at active war and had the Oklahoma City Bombings …. and not one Muslim was involved.
"I'm not sure why the Boston story is in the belief blog."
It's an op-ed piece by a Massachsetts priest planning her Sunday sermon. Why wouldn't it be on the Belief Blog?
Mark, your statements confuse me. First, conservatives are made up mostly of the faithful and support the death penalty more than any other demographic. Second, glorifying death in any manner is illogical. Furthermore, invalidating one tragedy in lieu of another is at best heartless. Empathy is felt more when something happens "closer to home." The more relatable the experience, the more attachment we feel to it. It is human nature. Most citizens can't relate to living in a country where people are being blown up on a regular basis. Naturally, the empathy for such an occurence is low. When it comes to going to school or going to see a movie, almost everyone can related. Or going to work for example. Relatable experiences:
9/11 – Ordinary people at work get attacked with planes
Aurora -Ordinary people at a movie for entertainment
Virgina Tech – Ordinary people at college to learn
Newtown – Ordinary children in elementary school
Boston – Ordinary athletes, their friends and family out to support them
The relation is key to empathy. Someone could have walked into my elementary school, college, or a movie theater I was in at any time. How many people in this country think about Aurora when they go to see a movie now? How many people now question the stability of someone at their college that seems a little "off?" These are relatable experiences to most of us.
As for glorifying death in any way, this is terrible. Glorifying death even if it is an end to suffering is a not a positive thing. This is where faith falters terribly. No one should say, "Oh, thank god only three people died." Just because there could have been more deaths does not make it ok to thank an invisible being that there weren't. This is sadistic. And one has to distinguish between an end to suffering and a callous act against innocents. Even if someone loses their life to a long, horrific battle with cancer, they still suffered. It should in no way be celebrated. Is it alright to be glad they aren't suffering? Sure, but glorifying it is the worst possible term to use here to distinguish such confused emotions. No one should ever glorify the fact that they will never get to experience the company of a loved one ever again.
As for the following:
"It's an op-ed piece by a Massachsetts priest planning her Sunday sermon. Why wouldn't it be on the Belief Blog?"
Because it is not known whether or not this was carried out as a result of religious belief for starters. To bring religion into it invalidates the tragedy, invalidates the victims, and invalidates the praise that should be given to those that jumped into the middle of the mess to help as many people as they could. While some of that credit is given, the overtone of good vs. evil in terms of a higher power takes it away, as though "the light" came along and empowered simpletons to act according to its "loving" will. This would be more accurate to simply state that there are truly good people out there, and they deserve the praise and respect for their selfless acts. It can be said that Mr. Rogers was an honorable, respectable man whom we should all admire for his truly caring passion for humanity and his unconditional love for children without a need to press his religious background as to remind us that only the religious are capable of good deeds. This is why it doesn't belong here.
The most high God is calling for the 144,000 in spirit and in truth. (Psalm 77:15) The new Jerusalem are the twelve tribes the children of Israel in Revelation 21:12
And all this time I thought the most high god was Willie Nelson
Oh look, a JW...AtheistSteve and I love when JW's come to the door....we invite them in and then watch as they squirm off to the elders because they're lost little sheep who can't think for themselves and never have a good rebuttal for the facts put forth to them.

@sam willie for president
would that mean that woody harrelson would be VP?
I think that things will actually get worse.
Too much inequality and injustice has arisen because of the commercialization of our government and political system. Every policy and action taken by the government lately seems to have been designed to benefit corporations and powerful wealthy individuals without much regards to negative effects on the vast majority of Americans who feel more helpless everyday.
This creates a lot of anger, hate and resentment. I'll bet that the attacker in Boston is an American who snapped because of what I just described. Soon enough, foreign terrorism will be the least of our worries. We are going to have a bunch of people turning into nut cases and going violent doing these kinds of things more often. It looks really bad.

Seriously? Come on I am so sick of negative people. Negativity like yours is dragging down our society. There are millions of people doing good things in their communities that far out weigh those doing bad. The news media only reports the bad because it sells but it in NO way reflects what is really happening in our world. It's time for you to turn off your television and actually get involved in your own community. Look at what happened in Oklahoma and our world didn't crumble, in fact it did get better in many ways. These sick people don't have power over us and there are millions of us doing good things in our communities and around the world.
