Fear In A Prayer's Home

We are so quick to judge violence as communal, religion as bigoted, and protest as biased.   But do we realize the person we threw our abuses at is also a person who trudges back to a home, tired, bloodied, pilloried.   That this man does believe in the power of a prayer. And when he runs down the street with fire in his hand and screaming God's name, he is merely invoking the name to protect himself from himself.
