Saddest Chapters

      The saddest chapters in the book are chapters 6 and 7.  I am working on the final edits of those two chapters. It is heart-wrenching. One evening, I looked over at my wife to see her with tears running down her cheeks. She was reading those chapters. Well, I said danger, excitement, and humor, but need to add - and a few tears. Unfortunately, the easiest of military battles come with casualties and sadness. Battle in military terms means fighting and harm to people. If our citizens could really consider this before a war, there just might be fewer wars.

 

In the past Twenty years, 5 million African children have been killed in wars on the African continent. In World War II, holocaust deaths are estimated at 11 million Jews. We'll never be certain. The World War I death toll is estimated at 21 million killed and 20 million wounded. Deaths attributed to Mao's revolution in the early 70s is estimated at 20 million. Deaths in the Bolshevik Revolution, 1.3 million. Deaths during Rwandan genocide are estimated at over one million. Man requires God's teachings and to learn from histories past mistakes, sadly, man seems to be very hard of hearing and to be suffering from extreme learning disabilities.
