CulturekeY: “see why”
To universal brotherhood
Our Father,
Our Father, Who is in heaven,
Holy is Your Name;
Your kingdom come,
Your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our sins,
as we forgive those who sin against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen.
To all those who are victims of terror I would like to share a personal interpretation of
a very deeply rooted –fundamental- believe that I try to live by and practice every
day.
Though it is part of a Christian prayer, I more and more believe it is, in essence, a
fundamental universal prayer which can be said and understood by any person
whether he/she believes in God or not.
… lead us not into temptation,
 by easy and senseless criticism,
 by any kind of discrimination,
 by isolation due to social and religious retreat,
 by ceding to vengeance.
… but deliver us from evil (=help us not cede to evil)
 which only serves division,
 to which it is easy to succumb when emotions are not tamed,
 by a kind look and generous engagement,
 by the outspoken willingness to contribute to “unity” advocating for respect and
inclusion of our fundamental differences.
Warm regards,
Olivier Marsily
