04-02-2007 20:09
Following is an article by Sander Hicks from AlterNet which has the following note from the AlterNet editor as an introduction.

The real war today is for survival; whether the species earns the right to survive or annihilates itself remains to be seen but the money is on annihilation, where it belongs! It is counter-productive to focus on the external manifestations of man’s evolutionary struggle against his dual nature – the WAR today is the final war for the species, it is the last battle of LIFE against DEATH.Homophobic Bullying 'Getting Worse'
