more deeply immersed I became in the thinking of the
prophets, the more powerfully it became clear to me what the lives of
the
prophets sought to convey: that morally speaking there is no limit to
the
concern one must feel for the suffering of human beings. It also became
clear
to me that in regard to cruelties committed in the name of a free
society, some
are guilty, all are responsible."<o:p></o:p></span></p>
