I too am glad you are back. If you truly believe what is written above then why are you here? I don't mean this in a snide way but if you really believe that any hope for a better world lies elsewhere what are you striving for here? There is no way to ask the question politely but if this is your believe are you just here waiting to die? I can see how offensive this question seems but I am serious. Without hope what else is there?
