Abstract

Recently, my wife Jennifer and I have been studying death tolls due to slavery, war, and genocide. The numbers are shocking, especially when one considers for a moment the significance, horror, and reach of the world's inhumanity. Immanently apparent is the great complexity involved in all large-scale human endeavors, the layers of power, nuance, and chaos with regard to time and place and perspective. I do believe in the principle judge not, lest ye be judged. I also believe in the principle of light, something common to our experience and beautiful to behold, the simple truth that light shines in darkness, and as the sacred text reminds us: the darkness cannot overcome the light. This robust notion, a notion that can be called illumination, is obscured at times, especially when we are faced with the overwhelming deadliness of our collective history.
