Atrocities have never been an eradicated item on the world stage. Fanatics bent on hatred, carnage and anarchy somehow always seem to emerge to display and emulate the work of Satan.
They then claim an evangelical gift, which Lucifer never lost his claim to.
In this latest example of human vulgarity for a deranged group calling itself a religious wrecking ball of carnage, otherwise known as ISIS, evil reigns supreme in the tragic execution of a messenger of events it somehow tries to display as sacred. Obviously sacred to a demon most will steer free of.
The honor and dignity of this brave journalistic spirit called James Foley is however tainted by this vulgar act of barbarism, which defines the perpetrators. It is raised in example of all that is good about the man and his representation as a crier of what is necessary and good in pursuit of a free society. Though a tragic loss for this family and the greater family of free thinking and aspiring people, it, in the end, is somehow raised as a glorious tribute to the principles he worked for and risked and gave his life for.
So indeed a tear to be shed for this integral person, but in the same breath, his spirit gives comforting joy to all who value journalistic integrity and its role in any free and dignified society.
Though we may be sad, his spirit lives within us all.
Finally, if there were ever a question of coexistence in the world for a group such as ISIS, it has been clearly projected by their continued horrific acts, it no longer exists and zero tolerance as elimination is the only answer.
