Featuring:
Kevin Cahalan
Former Peace Corps Volunteer and U.S. Marine,
now a Pacifist with Pax Christi (link)
SATURDAY JULY 14, 2012
Kevin discussed how Pax Christi's endeavors to end war and nurture peace among nations contrasts with current U.S. militaristic policies
or, in his words,
"...the folly of current American military adventures in light of their guarantee of failure, their cost when weighed against what we must sacrifice in terms of human lives destroyed and the economic trade-offs we must make, and our dismal current economic situation."
We thoroughly enjoyed Kevin's presentation and a lively discussion on where we can go from here and how we can combine our efforts on behalf of both peace and greater citizen involvement in all aspects of public dialogue.
