Wounded Angel
That is the land of lost content,
I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went
And cannot come again.

Welcome to my userpage; I'm driven to adding a number of texts to Wikisource. The bulk of my additions fall along two lines, idealistic texts generally dealing with pre-Nicene Christian interpretation of the message of Jesus Christ and how we Christians should live in the world; and those texts of a more "sinister" nature - for example the complete works of Author:Osama bin Laden. I don't support the messages in the texts, but am reminded of the words of Patton; "Rommel, you magnificent bastard, I read your book!". We cannot hope to defeat an enemy we cannot understand, and a media and government intent on making sure that the public never hears the evildoer's side of the story is doing a disservice to their population. I'm not spreading propaganda, or hoping that wayward Muslim youths find these texts -- rather I'm hoping that middle-class white North Americans take the time to read them, and hopefully gain a little bit of insight into what makes men like UBL tick.

Never be intimidated by somebody speaking authoritatively, as often as not they are using the illusion of absolute knowledge to cover the shaky basis on which their argument is founded
