This seems to be along the same lines as what I pulled from the Gordon Cosby sermon in my entry “All Are Connected”

Lessons of 9-11.
….So what was the lesson of 9-11 that the US has failed to learn? I think it’s that God doesn’t think we’re as important as we do. The concept of national security is obsolete. We can’t close our borders. We live on this planet with everyone else. Global warming, AIDs, terrorism, all penetrate all borders. New York is a world city. The last gasps of isolationism will be snuffed out by more humiliation, until we get the truth, we aren’t above the rest of the world, but we are part of it. …..[Scripting News]
