The Great Divider

The damage Donald Trump has done to the Republican party, to the electoral process, and potentially to the nation is incalculable.

At a time when we desperately lead a uniter to lead a nation already at war with itself, Trump himself has become the source of a new division so deep that it may never be bridged.

Fredrick Buechner once defined lust as "the craving of a man dying of thirst in the desert for salt." There's a deep perversity in human nature, a brokenness the Faith calls "original sin."  Anybody who doubts it needs only to look at the condition of or society and our culture and reflect that at this moment in history the front-runner of our of our great political parties is Donald Trump, and the other is Hillary Rodham Clinton.

We really like our salt, it seems
