Have the teachers of our religions failed us? Or have we not been listening? From leaders of Americas Christian Right seemingly forgetting that Blessed are the Peacemakers, to Jewish rabbis watching unflinchingly as collective punishment is doled out to Arabs in Palestine, to Muslim jurists ruling that civilian victims are acceptable under a Just War, the three great Abrahamic faiths are increasingly facing accusations of ignoring the sanctity of life.
