The path is so slippery but world leaders believe that their wisdom and their resources can prevail and restore world peace. What a mockery! They do not see the centuries. They do not see the evil imbedded in human hearts and they do not believe in Satanic intelligence.

They are deprived of faith and do not believe that they need the help of heaven. So, they slip each day into a deeper morass, wondering why their human solutions are of no avail. Such is the blindness of world leaders. They have hearts that are no longer placed in a religious culture. They are rooted in secular theories and cannot understand the religious fanaticism of the opponents.

Everything shifts. They do not understand the various groups that spring up, with all the different names. One surprise after another, until they begin to see the scope and the depth of world terrorism.

These are not problems that have begun in one day, one year or even one generation. The problems go back centuries. They are contained in religious thinking and in the streams of hatred toward the infidels that have poured forth from these religious teachers since Mohammed.

Religious wars are not new. Attacks against Europe happened centuries ago and were repulsed only by a fervent Christianity that could fight false religious faith with the fervor of true religious faith.

O world leaders, where is your faith? Where is your fervor? Can you overcome fire when you have no fire in your own hearts? I say this from the housetops. Peace will come only when religious faith returns. So, let the fires of faith be lit again. Do not trust in the fire of your weapons that can only kill. Trust in the fire of faith in your hearts. Return to Notre Dame (Our Lady) and I will lead you. Right now you are on a slippery and dangerous path.
