he is said to dwell in the castle of Kronborg, his beard grown down to the floor, and to sleep there until some date when Denmark is in mortal danger, at which time he will rise up and deliver the nation
What a tragedy! Will he turn out to approve honor killings and the stonings of girls he might want to date?
For some reason, it makes me think of this: You Are a Marvel ... Each second we live is a new and unique moment of the universe, a moment that will never be again...
And what do we teach our children?
We teach them that two and two make four, and that Paris is the capital of France.
When will we also teach them what they are?
We should say to each of them: Do you know what you are?
You are a marvel.
You are unique. In all the years that have passed, there has never been another child like you.
Your legs, your arms, your clever fingers, the way you move. You may become a Shakespeare, a Michaelangelo, a Beethoven.
You have the capacity for anything.
Yes, you are a marvel. And when you grow up, can you then harm another who is, like you, a marvel? You must work - we must all work to make the world worthy of its children.

For some reason, that kid is finding welcome and love in that "religion of peace" and turning, in effect against the people who believe like Casals.
He embraces a religion that could call for him to strap on a suicide vest and go blow up other kids like himself.
How sad. Does he realize that if he changes his mind and recants, there will be a billion formerly-friendly Muslims ready to chop his head off as an infidel? I bet they didn't tell him about that.

Rose,
Thank you so much for sharing that! Great words - all we can do now is to pray for this young boy's life and soul.
Anonymous,
Yep - once you're in to islam, you're in. This kid will find out how big a mistake he's made, but it'll be too late.
