Do you dream of a peaceful Holy land for all God people?

Please don't tell me this land is for one group only that would be a nightmare.

    Yes, I do. It is coming. A new dawn of freedom. The winds of change; the peace bell is ringing.

    Down with the Berlin Wall.

    Down with the occupation.

    Down with the hate and the war machine.

    A new rebirth for the people of Palestine.

    Mark - you and I don't often see eye to eye, but on this I can agree with you 100%. Yes I dream of a day when this land can be rightfully enjoyed by all those who have religious and cultural ties to this holy land, which includes Jews, Muslims, Christians, and Israelis and Palestinians no matter what religion they may practise, if any. We may argue over how best to bring about enduring peace in this land, but we can certainly agree on this being our common goal, and try to work constructively towards achieving it for the benefit of everyone.

    I do not imagine that an all knowing, all loving creator of all would have a thought process that in any way resembles my own. We can speculate all day long....but I do not think that 'because He does not think like me' has ever been a good reason to completely discount the possibility of the existence of a creator. Maybe he is playing with us, maybe there is some grand design and purpose that required the process we are in, and maybe an all peaceful world would not be so perfect - who knows - I don't think that perfection can come without balance - would a completely loving and peaceful world truly be perfect?

    God people as in monotheists? Or do you mean good people?

    And yes, if there is to be a 'Holy Land' (that itself I object to; holy AREAS are one thing--many of which I consider fascinating and tranquil even without having deep religious beliefs of my own--but an entire country?) it should be open to everyone. Jews, Christians, and Muslims all share common beliefs and common monuments. Why should one claim to be the chosen override another?

    the land is the right of all the abrahamic religions,and for one group to claim exclusive ownership is wrong, hence the conflict.perhaps a day will come when we can all worship in jerusalem, whether we be muslim,christian,or jew.and all borders,checkpoints,walls,and militia are a thing of the past.God willing.

    Yes I believe so too.

    It is time all of people there start doing a few steps back.

    Especially the Israelis. I am constantly reading about some terrible Arab children killings, whole Arab towns destroyed, terrible walls that surround Israel.

    I think this is plain awful!

    Peace is the only answer if the Israeli people want my tourist money that is.

    This would be the ideal solution and one that will hopefully be achieved soon.

    It is a dream that has to be held on to and never given up on.

    Not really. I dream of lands with no religion at all.

    Yes; when Palestine was under Ottoman authority pilgrims from all faiths were welcome to live there and pursue a life of prayer and meditation. Today it is over-run with gross commercial development. The view is taken is that is jewish property. I would prefer the 19th century to the 20th century version for a variety of reason,not the least being the relative absence of constant violence and unrest. People don't even call it the Holy Land any more. Most of looks like American-style urban sprawl and the condition of the indiginous population makes our 1920's Jim crow laws seem mild by comparison. I certainly do not feel the world has benefited from seeing it fall to jewish rule and I would like that rule removed.
