Dear Fred,
Thanks for your emails.

Since 9/11, The National Pastime is self-terrorization.
Although I would modify Mencken's observation by inserting the phrase "most of them imaginary," he is spot on. http://paxonbothhouses.
Either we focus love... or we are lost.
The principal polarity that rules our lives situates "love" and "fear" at the extremes.
1 John 4:18
18 There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
American conservatives are uniquely skilled at self-terrorization. http://paxonbothhouses.blogspot.com/2013/02/john-xxiii-and-christian-conservatives.html
If the country comes undone, conservatives' proclivity for fearful fascism will be disproportionately responsible.
Islamic Jihad and Christian Fundamentalism are mirror images.

Why not put the whole country in lockdown? Last week the media was pumping up the North Korean nuclear attack threat. This week it's Boston. Don't let 'em scare you.
