War

Hey everyone. At 2 in the morning today a war broke out between the christians and the sindhis. There were 2 sindhis and 250 christians. The christians beat the sindhis without mercy, resulting in one of them in the hospital and one dead. Because there were 250 christians and only 2 sindhis, the christians cannot be prosecuted. The police have to listen to the christians because they are the majority in the situation. They are saying that it was the sindhis who provoked them, but there are no sindhis to tell their side, so the police have no choice but listen to the christians. This is a completely unjust situation and it is very frustrating. How is it christian to beat people of other religions? As I recall God said "love your neighbors", not "beat your neighbors". But what can we do? It is just another situation in life that is unfair and unjust. Perhaps someday our world will be at peace. I hope I am alive for that day.
On a happier note, I am having a wonderful time in India and it has definetly opened my eyes to many things.
Namaste,
Hannah
